Senate,
No. 2871 -- L.1985, c. 360
Senate
Bill No. 2781, as amended by the Senate Law, Public Safety and Defense
Committee, prohibits as a crime of the fourth degree the possession of
a stun gun by any person, including a law enforcement officer. A crime
of the fourth degree carries a penalty of imprisonment for up to 18 months,
a fine of up to $7,500, or both. Prior to being amended the bill classified
possession of a crime in the third degree.
{Editor’s
Note: According to Len Lawson of NJ Legislative Council, (609) 292-4625)
NJ does not classify crimes in felonies versus misdemeanors. The highest
crimes are in first degree on down to fourth degree.
A fourth
degree penalty is a serious charge and is generally considered a misdemeanor
in common terms. It is however an indictable offense. A fourth degree crime
does contain "a presumption of non-custodial sentencing," meaning that
there is not imprisonment if there are no prior convictions. In some cases
the sentencing is obviated from one’s record if there is a period of good
behavior following the charge.}
The committee amended the bill to include a provision authorizing the
Attorney General, at his discretion, to exempt law enforcement officers
from the prohibition against possession stun guns.
The bill also was amended by the committee to include stun guns in the
definition of "weapon" in paragraph r. N.J.S. 2C:39-1.
(Chapter
2C:39-1)
(h) Stun
guns. Any person who knowingly has in his possession any stun gun is guilty
of a crime in the fourth degree.
