Summary

The bill adds a new section to Kentucky law that prohibits anyone on the sex offender registry for offenses against a minor from participating in any Halloween-related activity, such as trick‑or‑treating or costume parties. Exceptions are limited to parents or guardians distributing candy to their own children, attending a party as a parent/guardian of all minors present, or wearing a costume for a legitimate work purpose during business hours. Violations are treated as a Class A misdemeanor for a first offense and a Class D felony for subsequent offenses.
