Permits waiver of juvenile regardless of age under certain circumstances; makes juveniles eligible for waiver for terrorism and human trafficking.

S 4438 allows juveniles of any age to be tried in adult court for terrorism, human trafficking, and other serious crimes like murder, robbery, and assault, if a court determines the circumstances and severity of the offense warrant it. Currently, only juveniles aged 15 or older could be waived for some serious crimes, but this bill removes the age restriction for terrorism, human trafficking, and the listed offenses. The bill also requires the state to collect and report data on waiver decisions, including demographics and case details, to monitor how the policy is applied. This directly affects young people under 18 charged with these specific offenses.
