When it comes to Raise the Age, State Sen. Rob Rolison, who is ranking member on the Senate Crime Victims, Crime and Corrections committee, wants to see the law tweaked to better account for repeat offenders.

“There has got to be a way that the governor and the state Legislature can get together and find a way to make Raise the Age work, and to make communities safer,” he said. “Not to gut Raise the Age, but if you’re arrested for a violent felony that goes to family court, and I understand the reason behind that, but if you’re arrested again you’re not going to family court, you’re going to go to adult court because we’ve seen that we have individuals out there committing multiple violent felonies are in family court and not being held accountable as they should be.”
