Establishes the crime of criminal sale of a controlled substance resulting in death

New York State Penal Law would add a new offense, "criminal sale of a controlled substance resulting in death," making it a class A-1 felony. The crime applies when a person sells, exchanges, gives, disposes of, or supplies any scheduled controlled substance (Schedules I-V) to another person and that person's use of the drug causes their death. The bill takes effect 30 days after enactment and authorizes immediate rulemaking needed for implementation.
