SB57 expands the types of felonies that must receive presumptive probation by adding numerous offenses (like certain firearm thefts and identity theft crimes) to the list of crimes that were previously excluded from the probation requirement. Courts can still impose prison time instead of probation only if they document specific aggravating circumstances on the record that pose a significant public safety risk.
