Increases mandatory minimum term of imprisonment for certain repeat sex offenders.

This bill increases mandatory minimum prison sentences for repeat sex offenders in New Jersey. It requires courts to impose a fixed minimum of 85% of the maximum sentence for second or subsequent convictions of offenses like sexual assault, criminal sexual contact, or lewdness involving minors, replacing the current 5-year minimum. Exceptions allow judges to reduce sentences if a plea agreement benefits the victim or if imposing the full term would cause a "serious injustice," but courts must justify any reduction. The bill applies to specific crimes, such as 85% of 20 years for aggravated sexual assault (1st degree) and 85% of 10 years for sexual assault (2nd degree).
