Proposed Bill Could Remove Age Exemption for Death Penalty in Child Murder Cases

A proposed bill, Senate Bill 990, is being discussed at the state capitol today, aiming to remove the age exemption for the death penalty in child murder cases. Currently, suspects who kill children aged 10 to 15 are not eligible for the death penalty. KPRC2 reporter Corley Peel has the latest on the bill's hearing, with supporters like Crimestoppers of Houston and the mother of 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray, who was killed last year.
