This bill establishes a new section in the Oklahoma Statutes that makes it unlawful to commit assault, battery, or assault and battery against security officers, private investigators, or bail enforcers with the intent to cause bodily harm. Upon conviction, individuals found guilty of such acts will face misdemeanor charges, which may result in imprisonment for up to one year, a fine of up to $1,000, or both. The bill defines the terms "security officer," "private investigator," and "bail enforcer," specifying the requirements for their identification and lawful performance of duties at the time of the incident.

The effective date for this legislation is set for November 1, 2025. The bill aims to enhance the protection of individuals in these roles by imposing penalties for violent acts committed against them while they are performing their duties.
