SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Taking indecent liberties with children through the Internet. Combines sections of the Code related to taking indecent liberties with children, the distribution of obscene materials and material harmful to juveniles in one section when the crime is effected through the use of the Internet. Under current law it is already a crime to (i) propose that any child perform an act of sexual intercourse; (ii) distribute obscene materials; or (iii) distribute, to a juvenile, any material harmful to juveniles. This bill clarifies that to propose a sexual act to a juvenile by using the Internet to disseminate the obscene or harmful materials is a crime.
