Gov. Ige's increases the penalty for people caught in closed east rift zone areas. Those caught and cited by DLNR officials can be fined up to $5,000 and given up to a year of jail time...."I find there is a need to strengthen the enforcement tools available to county and state emergency management officials in controlling public access to dangerous areas....” said Gov. Ige in a statement.

The Governor is right. And why go halfway here? Let's boost the prison term to 2 years for these sorts of offenses.
And five criminals recently caught were from California.
We can't continue to allow tourists to so abuse and trample our laws and way of life. Make these California criminals a top prosecution priority for stiff sentencing. That will send out the proper message.
