This bill amends the Michigan Code of Criminal Procedure by updating section 16w of chapter XVII, which pertains to various felonies related to prostitution and human trafficking. The bill introduces new classifications and maximum penalties for specific offenses, including soliciting minors for prostitution, keeping a house of prostitution, and various forms of human trafficking. Notably, it establishes a life sentence for violations involving death or certain felonies, while also adjusting the offense categories and variable levels for human trafficking-related offenses.

Additionally, the bill removes previous classifications and penalties for human trafficking violations that resulted in bodily injury or serious bodily injury, streamlining the legal framework for prosecuting these crimes. The enactment of this bill is contingent upon the passage of two other specified bills from the 103rd Legislature and will take effect 90 days after being enacted into law.
