CO SB111

Eliminates probation as a sentencing option for Class 4 felony sexual assault on a child, requiring mandatory incarceration in the Department of Corrections

Eliminates probation for Class 4 felony sexual assault on a child by one in a position of trust, requiring mandatory incarceration

Eliminates probation for Class 3 felony sexual assault on a child by one in a position of trust when the victim is under 15 years old, requiring mandatory incarceration

Current law allows courts to sentence sex offenders to probation for indeterminate periods of 10-20 years depending on felony class; this bill removes that option for these specific child sexual assault offenses

Takes effect August 12, 2026 (90 days after legislative adjournment) and applies only to offenses committed on or after that date
