Establishes threats of violence against prosecutors, law enforcement officers and family members as a second degree crime, subject to No Early Release Act sentencing.

This bill (S 995) upgrades threats targeting prosecutors, law enforcement officers, or their family members to a second-degree crime under New Jersey law. It directly affects anyone who threatens to kill or cause physical harm to these individuals with the intent to cause immediate fear of harm, including threats against spouses, parents, children, or cohabiting relatives. Key provisions require offenders convicted of this crime to serve at least 85% of their sentence before becoming eligible for parole (per the "No Early Release Act"), with penalties including 5-10 years in prison or fines up to $150,000. The bill modifies existing statutes (N.J.S.2C:12-3 and P.L.1997, c.117) to implement these sentencing requirements.
