The act further requires the court, when pronouncing as sentence, executing a suspended sentence, or suspending the imposition of a sentence, to record as part of the judgment, the number of days before the pronouncement of the sentence that the person was in prison, jail, or custody which was related to the offense.

This act repeals the 40% minimum prison term for offenders of dangerous felonies who have attained the age of 70. In cases where the sentencing court does not impose a specific term of imprisonment required to be served, the minimum percentage of the range associated with the felony class shall be the required percentage of the term to be served. Additionally, this act repeals provisions relating to conditional release by the Parole Board. (Sections 558.011 and 558.019) The act also repeals specific minimum prison terms and eligibility for probation and parole for following offenses: rape in the first degree, sodomy in the first degree, enticement of a child, sexual trafficking of a child in the first and second degree, abuse or neglect of a child, armed criminal action, unlawful use of weapons, promoting child pornography in the first degree, aggravated fleeing a stop or detention, tampering with a witness or victim, driving while intoxicated if a chronic or habitual offender, felonies connected with a criminal street gang, and failing to register as sex offender as a third offense (Sections 566.030, 566.060, 566.151, 566.210, 566.211, 568.060, 570.030, 571.015, 571.030, 573.025, 575.151, 575.270, 577.010, 578.425, and 589.425) For consecutive sentences, the sentencing court shall calculate the minimum percentage of term by taking half the term of years for each felony offense and adding the half number together to determine the total number of years required to be served prior to parole eligibility. For concurrent sentences, the offender shall be required to serve the minimum prison term for each offense. (Section 558.026) This act is identical to SB 894 (2026) and contains provisions identical to provisions in SB 882 (2026). TRISTAN BENSON, JR.
