STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS30846 / H0382
This legislation amends the criminal child pornography, sexual exploitation of a child law to include artificial
intelligence generated sexual depictions of children wherein the depictions appear to be that of real children.
The legislation sets penalties, including minimum and maximum terms in prison. Immunity is provided, in
certain instances, for law enforcement officers. It revises provisions regarding the internet crimes against
children unit of the office of the attorney general. There are also technical corrections.
FISCAL NOTE
This legislation will have minimal impact on the General Fund as child pornography is presently illegal and
prosecuted by state and local law enforcement, and the office of the attorney general.
