The bill amends Washington State laws to specifically address offenses related to child sex dolls by introducing a clear definition for "child sex doll" as an anatomically correct doll or object intended for sexual stimulation that resembles a minor. It establishes new criminal offenses including the manufacture of a child sex doll, possession of a child sex doll, sending or bringing into the state a child sex doll, and trafficking a child sex doll. Each offense is treated separately for prosecution purposes, with penalties ranging from gross misdemeanors to class B felonies, depending on the severity of the offense. Furthermore, the bill imposes a $1,000 fee for each conviction related to these offenses, which will be allocated to a child rescue fund. It also expands the scope of property that can be seized and forfeited to include child sex dolls and associated materials. Overall, the legislation aims to strengthen legal measures against the distribution and possession of child sex dolls, thereby enhancing protections for minors and addressing the exploitation linked to such items.
