flag Florida Senate passes law mandating life without parole for killing a cop, named after officer Jason Raynor.

flag The Florida Senate has passed SB 156, the Officer Jason Raynor Act, which mandates life imprisonment without parole for anyone convicted of manslaughter in the death of a law enforcement officer. flag Named after Daytona Beach officer Jason Raynor, killed in 2021, the bill replaces current use-of-force standards with a "good faith" rule allowing officers to justify force if they reasonably believe it is necessary. flag The legislation, approved nearly unanimously, now moves to the House, where a similar version is expected to advance. flag Supporters say it protects officers in high-pressure situations and honors Raynor’s memory, while critics warn it may reduce accountability and weaken civilian rights. flag The bill’s fate hinges on final passage before the session ends.
