The bill allows for the prosecution of certain juveniles aged 16 or older without needing a motion to transfer from the Attorney General.

  • 18 U.S.C. § 5032

    Notwithstanding any other provision in this section, criminal prosecution of a juvenile in the appropriate district court of the United States may be begun without a motion to transfer of the Attorney General if the juvenile is 16 years of age or older and is alleged to have committed-- (1) any crime of homicide under chapter 51; (2) aggravated assault, as described in section 111(b); (3) theft of a motor vehicle under section 2119; (4) robbery under section 1951, to which section 924(c) applies; or (5) aggravated sexual abuse under section 2241, to which section 924(c) applies.

    This new provision permits certain juvenile offenders aged 16 and older to be prosecuted directly in federal court for specific serious crimes without the usual prerequisite of a motion to transfer from the Attorney General.
