Existing law authorizes a person who has been convicted of felony murder or murder under the natural and probable consequences theory or other theory under which malice is imputed to a person based solely on that person's participation in a crime to file a petition for the court to vacate the person's sentence and resentence them if the petitioner could not presently be convicted of murder or attempted murder because of changes made in the law since their conviction. This bill would specify that these provisions do not apply to a person when the victim is a peace officer who was engaged in the performance of their duties and when the defendant knew, or reasonably should have known, that the victim was a peace officer engaged in the performance of their duties.
