This bill amends the definition of "explicit sexual conduct" within the context of the crime of sexual exploitation of children in Wyoming. The updated definition now includes not only various forms of sexual intercourse and acts but also specifies that the lascivious exhibition of the chest or breasts of a female person is considered explicit sexual conduct. This change aims to broaden the scope of what constitutes sexual exploitation, thereby enhancing protections for children against such offenses.
The bill will take effect on July 1, 2025, allowing for a transition period before the new definitions are enforced. By clarifying and expanding the definition of explicit sexual conduct, the legislation seeks to address and adapt to evolving societal standards regarding child protection and exploitation.
