This bill establishes a new crime in New Mexico, titled "indecent exposure to a child out of public view." It defines the offense as a person aged eighteen or older knowingly and intentionally exposing their primary genital area to a child under eighteen in a lewd and lascivious manner while in a nonpublic place. The bill specifies that the term "child" refers to individuals under eighteen years of age, and it outlines the specific body parts that constitute the "primary genital area."

The penalty for committing this offense is classified as a misdemeanor. Additionally, the bill includes a retroactive provision, meaning it applies to all actions related to indecent exposure to a child out of public view that are not currently pending, regardless of when the exposure occurred or whether the statute of limitations has expired. This new legal language is intended to strengthen protections for children against sexual offenses.
