Jaleeyah's Law Targets Gang Gun Access

In the wake of thirteen-year-old Jaleeyah Tune’s tragic death, North Carolina lawmakers are introducing “Jaleeyah’s Law” — a sweeping bill targeting gang-related gun violence by creating new felony charges for gang members possessing firearms or selling guns to known gang affiliates. The legislation aims to close loopholes that let older gang members exploit minors, increase penalties for gang crimes, and simplify legal definitions to make it easier to convict gang leaders. Driven by the family’s grief, the bill seeks to disrupt cycles of violence and empower prosecutors to protect communities — turning one child’s loss into a call for systemic change.
