The bill seeks to amend the West Virginia Code to strengthen protections for minors against indecent displays, particularly those related to transvestite and transgender performances. Key amendments include a revised definition of indecent exposure that now explicitly encompasses engaging in obscene matter or sexually explicit conduct. The bill increases penalties for violations, raising the maximum jail time for indecent exposure from ninety days to six months and fines from $250 to $1,000. Repeat offenders face even harsher consequences, with fines for second offenses escalating to $5,000 and potential felony charges for third offenses. Additionally, the bill introduces new definitions and expands the scope of "obscene matter" to include any transvestite and/or transgender exposure to minors, while also imposing stricter regulations on venues allowing minors in such environments.

In a separate section, the bill modifies existing laws regarding the filing and prosecution of nuisance complaints within a county. It mandates that complaints cannot be dismissed without a sworn statement from the complainant or their attorney, along with written approval from the prosecuting attorney. The bill also increases penalties for violations of injunctions or closing orders related to nuisances, raising the minimum fine for contempt from $100 to $1,000 and the maximum fine from $1,000 to $5,000. A new tax of $1,000 is introduced for individuals maintaining a nuisance, which will be recorded as a lien on the property, although exemptions are provided for those who can prove their innocence or have abated the nuisance in good faith. Overall, the bill aims to enhance enforcement of nuisance laws and protect community standards.
