The bill introduces a new section, 794.0116, to the Florida Statutes, which establishes mandatory minimum terms of imprisonment for specific sexual offenses committed by registered sexual offenders or sexual predators. The offenses listed include violations of various statutes related to sexual crimes, with a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years for most offenses, and up to 20 years for certain offenses involving victims aged 12 years or younger. The bill emphasizes that these mandatory minimum sentences must be imposed regardless of any other laws or interpretations that might suggest otherwise.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that individuals sentenced under this new section will not be eligible for statutory gain-time or discretionary early release options, except for pardon or executive clemency. This provision aims to ensure that offenders serve the full mandatory minimum sentence before any potential release. The act is set to take effect on October 1, 2025.
