Act of Parliament
Preamble: This Act aims to mandate clear operational boundaries for Ministry of Justice personnel, to establish enforcement mechanisms for accountability, and to amend the rules of engagement to allow for expanded citizen oversight and property defense.
Recognizing that public trust is essential for a functioning civil society; and seeking to eliminate arbitrary exercises of authority that hinder regional peace and security, this Act mandates basic legal boundaries for all state-sanctioned enforcement while providing the citizenry with robust protections for life and estate.
Additionally, given recent studies showcasing the a significantly high mortality rate of incarcerated citizens, prison sentences for felonies have been rebalanced to be capped at 30 minutes, with a large fine to be paid for the remaining balance of the sentence if the jail time exceeds limits.
1. Short Title
(a) This bill shall be referred to as the “Law Enforcement Improvement Act"
(b) This bill is authored by Lil Digi.
2. Amendments to Punishments in the New Criminal Crackdown Act
The following fines and jail time will be amended in the following sections of the New Criminal Code Act
3. Additions to the New Criminal Code Act
13. Engagement Doctrines
(a) Qualified Immunity Doctrine
(i) The Ministry of Justice and Ministry of Justice-employed law enforcement officers possess limited immunity from immediate criminal prosecution or administrative demotion while actively performing their duties provided their actions align with established, internal Ministry of Justice policy and do not infringe on fundamental protections granted by the Constitution of the Azalea Isles.
(ii) Ministry of Justice-employed law enforcement officers are authorized to utilize lethal force and execute an immediate Kill on Sight (KOS) order upon directly witnessing an active felony or violent misdemeanor being committed by a suspect. Documented visual confirmation of the offense by an officer grants immediate authorization to neutralize the target on sight, bypassing any requirement for applicable internal MOJ policies that may include but are not limited to verbal warnings, de-escalation tactics, or attempts at physical detention. To maintain public trust and operational integrity, this authorization is strictly restricted by the following boundaries:
(1) Lethal force is strictly prohibited if the witnessed crime is a nonviolent misdemeanor or non-violent civil infraction. Officers must utilize standard MOJ detention protocols for minor offenses.
(2) The officer must be a direct eye-witness to the active crime itself. Officers are strictly forbidden from executing a Kill on Sight order based on text-based criminal alerts, criminal history, or circumstantial evidence after the crime has already concluded.
(3) If the suspect completely halts their criminal activity and/or signals full compliance before lethal force is applied, the authorization for Kill on Sight is immediately voided, and officers must revert to standard MOJ arrest procedures
(iii) An officer’s immunity is immediately voided for a specific individual action, rendering them subject to appropriate charges, demotion, or litigation, if they commit any of the following violations:
(1) Unlawful Arrest or Search: Initiating an arrest, detention, or property search without established probable cause, active pursuit, or a valid judicial warrant.
(2) Collusion and Corruption: Engaging in bribery, leaking department communication, or providing tactical assistance, equipment, or immunity to known criminal entities.
(3) Unauthorized Use of Force: Deploying non-lethal or lethal force against an individual who is already restrained, fully compliant, or poses no immediate threat to life or property.
(4) Misappropriation of MOJ Property: Deploying Ministry of Justice tools for personal use or while off-duty.
(5) The individual retains immunity for actions taken that were not subject to the above listed violations.
(iv) The Ministry of Justice has legal immunity for all properly executed KOS actions.
(1) This immunity remains subject to judicial review, but the burden lies on the Plaintiff to prove, through a preponderance of the evidence, that the Ministry’s KOS authorization was invalid. This may mean not meeting the thresholds of Section 13(a)ii and its subsections, or that a violation was committed under Section 13(a)iii.
(2) If a ruling is returned, through trial, that the Ministry’s immunity does not apply to a specific instance, damages are not assumed and must be proven.
(b) Property Protection Doctrine
(i) Any lawful citizen or property owner is authorized to utilize proportional force, up to and including lethal force, to defend their designated property (including owned real estate, businesses, and personal vehicles) against active, unauthorized intrusion, burglary, or threats of harm
(ii) A citizen who is lawfully present on their owned or rented property has no duty to retreat from an intruder or attacker. They hold the legal right to stand their ground and meet force with force if they reasonably believe it is necessary to prevent a felony or to protect themselves, their property, or others from imminent harm
(iii) Limitations for Fairness: To prevent abuse of this doctrine, the protections of this section are strictly limited by the following conditions:
1. The Intrusion Requirement: Force may only be deployed if the intruder has actively breached the property line or is actively destroying/stealing property. Brandishing or firing at individuals who are merely standing on public sidewalks or adjacent property is strictly prohibited.
2. The Surrender Exception: If an intruder completely ceases their hostile actions, drops any weapons, and attempts to retreat from the property or surrender, the authorization for immediate lethal force is voided. The property owner must allow them to flee or detain them without further violence until Ministry of Justice officers arrive.
3. The Government Exception: This doctrine does not apply against Ministry of Justice officers who are executing a legally authorized warrant, conducting an active pursuit, or responding to an emergency, provided the officers are clearly identifying themselves as law enforcement.
4. Amendments to other parts of the New Criminal Code Act
(a) Addition to “3. Key Definitions”
(n/) “Violent Misdemeanor” shall be defined as a crime classified in the ‘Misdemeanor’ category that includes the harm or threat of harm of another citizen.
(b) Addition to “12. Enforcement and Prosecution Procedures”
(e) The maximum duration for consecutive jail sentences stemming from a single arrest shall be strictly capped at 30 minutes. In the event that an offender's combined criminal charges warrant a sentence surpassing this 30-minute limitation, the remaining balance of the sentence shall be converted into a mandatory fine levied against the offender at a rate of $150 per minute.
5. Repealing the Protect the People Act
(a) The Protect the People Act is hereby repealed.
6. Repealing the Police Brutality Act
(a) The Police Brutality Act is hereby repealed.
Enactment: This Act comes into force immediately upon passage.

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
The dustiest servers been messin’ with us
Am I a GOAT? Well, probably not
I probably was, but you probably forgot
My white label had to go white label stuff
When he stepped out his body and finally got hot
Hand me the tools like I'm pickin' a lock
The opps been out here sneak dissin' a lot
My honor comes from the stuff that I do for the ones that I love
It's between 'em and I
Your honor comes to the court, and he offers a plea deal
So that you could cut off some time
Nowadays, y'all don't wan' put in no work
Y'all just wan' jump to the front of the line
And hurry and run out the nine
Baby boy, plеase
I heard what you said to lil' bro about me
Yеah, and when you run into the Digiman
What you gon' do except freeze?
You not 'bout to squeeze, you not in the streets
I'm cuttin' server owners off at the knees
They ain't on standin' on business with me
If I'm lyin', I'm flyin' economy, give me a goddamn seat
If I'm lyin', I'm flyin' economy, I bet I know who I see
You know how I fly 'cause I land at the beach
When you land, you can see me
You whisper my name 'cause the way that it carry, you can't even speak
Yeah, you can't even speak
Whisper my name and don't say it too loud
'Cause you gotta come here and you know I pop out
We turnt up CityCorp, had boys backin' down
And we might do the same if we touch making towns
If you my brother, then say that, my brother
Like, "What's up, my crodie? Come hug me right now"
Come up to me and get one of them out
'Cause you know all these people been countin' me out
Okay, okay
You gotta whisper my name
You gotta whisper my name
