Increases penalties imposed on juveniles and adults convicted of motor vehicle theft and related crimes.

This bill increases penalties for motor vehicle theft and related crimes for both adults and juveniles. For adults convicted of motor vehicle theft, it mandates a minimum 180-day prison sentence for a first offense (no parole) and one year for subsequent offenses. Juveniles face 30 days in custody for a first offense, 60 days plus a nonresidential program for a second offense, and six months plus such a program for third or subsequent offenses. The bill also imposes stricter penalties on adults who use minors to commit these crimes, requiring 6-12 months for a first offense and 5+ years for repeat offenses.
