Rehabilitation Incentive Program Act; enact.

SB 2818 creates a Rehabilitation Incentive Program for offenders convicted of knowingly selling, lending, or trafficking deadly weapons to minors under 18 with violent intent. It requires offenders on probation to have 8% of their wages withheld, with 50% deposited into a trust fund for job training and internship opportunities and 50% added to the state General Fund. Offenders under 21 must undergo a mental health assessment, and those with prior violent crime convictions (per Section 97-7-3) are excluded from the program. The bill also establishes criminal penalties of 5-8 years in prison for the weapon sales offense, with sentences capped at eight years total when combined with related charges.
