1-40-301. Compensation from benefits of crime.

The legislature finds that the state has a compelling interest in preventing any person who is convicted of a criminal act from profiting from the criminal act and in recompensing victims of the criminal act. It is therefore the intent of the legislature to provide a mechanism whereby any profits from a criminal act that are received by the person convicted of the criminal act are available as restitution to the victims of the criminal act.
