The bill amends section 800.04 of the Florida Statutes, which addresses lewd or lascivious offenses committed in the presence of individuals under 16 years of age. It introduces a definition for the term "presence," specifying that it refers to a state where the victim is reasonably capable of viewing the conduct, without requiring the victim to be aware of the specific actions or to see the perpetrator's genitals. Additionally, the bill clarifies that a person commits lewd or lascivious exhibition if they engage in certain sexual acts in the presence of a minor and are aware or have reason to believe that the minor is present.

The bill also establishes penalties for offenders based on their age. Those 18 years or older who commit such acts will face a felony of the second degree, while offenders under 18 will face a felony of the third degree. The act is set to take effect on October 1, 2026.
