Requires juveniles to be tried as adult for certain serious offenses under No Early Release Act.

This bill (S 375) changes New Jersey's juvenile justice process by allowing prosecutors to seek to try juveniles aged 15 or older as adults for specific serious offenses without the juvenile's consent. It targets crimes like homicide, certain robberies, sexual assaults, firearm offenses, and drug trafficking (as listed in the bill text). Courts must review factors like the crime's severity, the juvenile's maturity, and prior history before granting the waiver. If convicted, juveniles would serve custodial sentences in juvenile facilities until age 21, with limited options to transfer to adult facilities. The bill applies directly to juveniles charged with the enumerated offenses in the state's statutes.
