The main purpose of this legislative text is to change how sentencing is handled in death penalty cases when a jury cannot reach a unanimous decision. The goal is to ensure that if a jury fails to unanimously recommend a death sentence, a new jury will be brought in to reconsider the case. Key provisions of this legislation include a requirement for a new jury to be impaneled if the original jury does not reach a unanimous decision on whether the defendant should receive the death penalty, life imprisonment without the possibility of parole, or a lesser sentence.
