Department of Corrections; however, we don’t have a good basis to make an estimate. Therefore, Oversight will assume “less than” DOC’s estimated cost.

Section 569.100 makes the offense of property damage in the first degree a class D felony; unless the purpose is to defraud or obtain any property with a value exceeding $750, or the damage to the teller machine exceeds $750, in which case is a class C felony. The offense of obtaining personal financial credentials of another person, or second and subsequent violations, is a class B felony. Section 570.030 makes the offense of stealing a teller machine (or the contents of including cash, regardless of the amount) is a class C felony. The intent of the bill is to create one class B felony, two class C felonies and one class D felony. Given the seriousness of class B felony offenses and that the introduction of a completely new class B felony offense is a rare event, the department assumes the admission of one person per year to prison following the passage of the legislative proposal. Offenders committed to prison with a class B felony as their most serious sentence had an average sentence length of 9.0 years and served, on average, 3.4 years in prison prior to first release. The department assumes one third of the remaining sentence length will be served in prison as a parole return, and the rest of the sentence will be served on supervision in the community. The cumulative impact on the department is estimated to be 5 additional offenders in prison and 0 additional offenders on field supervision by FY 2028. L.R. No. 1244H.02P Bill No. Perfected HCS for HB 725 Page 4 of March 23, 2023 DD:LR:OD For one new nonviolent class D felony, the department estimates three people could be sentenced to prison and five to probation. The average sentence for a nonviolent class D felony offense is 5 years, of which 2.8 years will be served in prison with 1.7 years to first release. The remaining 2.2 years will be on parole. Probation sentences will be 3 years. The cumulative impact on the department is estimated to be 8 additional offenders in prison and 16 additional offenders on field supervision by FY 2026. For two new class C felonies, the department estimates 8 people could be sentenced to prison and 12 to probation. The average sentence for a class C felony offense is 6.9 years, of which 3.7 years will be served in prison with 2.1 years to first release. The remaining 3.2 years will be on parole. Probation sentences will be 3 years.

If the projected impact of legislation is less than 1,500 offenders added to or subtracted from the department’s institutional caseload, the marginal cost of incarceration will be utilized. This cost of incarceration is $26.024 per day or an annual cost of $9,499 per offender and includes such costs as medical, food, and operational E&E. However, if the projected impact of legislation is 1,500 or more offenders added or removed to the department’s institutional caseload, the full cost of incarceration will be used, which includes fixed costs. This cost is $87.46 per day or an annual cost of $31,921 per offender and includes personal services, all institutional E&E, medical and mental health, fringe, and miscellaneous expenses. None of these costs include construction to increase institutional capacity. DOC’s cost of probation or parole is determined by the number of P&P Officer II positions that are needed to cover its caseload. The DOC average district caseload across the state is 51 offender cases per officer. An increase/decrease of 51 cases would result in a cost/cost avoidance equal to the salary, fringe, and equipment and expenses of one P&P Officer II. Increases/decreases smaller than 51 offender cases are assumed to be absorbable. In instances where the proposed legislation would only affect a specific caseload, such as sex offenders, the DOC will use the average caseload figure for that specific type of offender to calculate cost increases/decreases. Oversight does not have any information contrary to that provided by DOC. However, Oversight assumes the number of new prisoners detained for these charges will not reach the estimate provided by DOC, but we don’t have an estimate of the number of new convictions. L.R. No. 1244H.02P Bill No. Perfected HCS for HB 725 Page 7 of March 23, 2023 DD:LR:OD Therefore, Oversight will reflect the fiscal impact as “less than” DOC’s estimated impact for fiscal note purposes. In response to similar legislation from 2022 (SCS SB 831), officials from the Office of the State Public Defender (SPD) stated the proposed legislation creates the offense of tampering with a teller machine, in violation of Section 569.100, and therefore, could increase the number of persons who are eligible for representation by the State Public Defender (SPD). The fiscal impact of this legislation on the SPD is unknown as the number of additional cases eligible for representation as the result of the legislation is unknown, but it is anticipated that any increase would be less than $250,000. Oversight notes in FY22 the SPD was appropriated moneys for 53 additional FTE. Oversight assumes this proposal will create a minimal number of new cases and that the SPD can absorb the additional caseload required by this proposal with current staff and resources. Therefore, Oversight will reflect no fiscal impact to the SPD for fiscal note purposes. However, if multiple bills pass which require additional staffing and duties, the SPD may request funding through the appropriation process. Officials from the Attorney General’s Office, the Department of Commerce and Insurance, the Department of Public Safety - Missouri Highway Patrol, and the Missouri Office of Prosecution Services assume the proposal will have no fiscal impact on their organization. In response to previous version, officials from the Office of the State Courts Administrator assumed the proposal will have no fiscal impact on their organization. Oversight does not have any information to the contrary. Therefore, Oversight will reflect a zero impact in the fiscal note for these agencies. L.R.

This offense is a class D felony; a class C felony if committed for the purpose of executing any scheme or artifice to defraud or obtain any property that exceeds $750 or the damage to the teller machine exceeds $750; and a class B felony if the damage committed was to obtain the personal financial credentials of another person or is committed as a second violation. The bill also provides that the offense of stealing is a Class C felony if the property is a teller machine or the contents of a teller machine regardless of the value or amount of cash. This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
