Sexual Offenses

Summary

The bill revises dozens of Florida statutes, replacing the term “child pornography” with “child sexual abuse material,” raising penalties for creating, possessing, transmitting, or using such material, and adding stricter mandatory minimum sentences for repeat sexual offenders. It also expands background‑check disqualifications for child‑care workers and requires victims’ names to be listed under pseudonyms in court records. The changes are intended to strengthen protections for children and make prosecution of sexual crimes more consistent.
