An Act To Prohibit The Sale Or Provision Of Self-Administered Sexual Assault Forensic Evidence Collection Kits

LD 412 prohibits the sale, offering for sale, or provision of self-administered sexual assault forensic evidence collection kits (referred to as "covered evidence kits") to individuals. The bill does not affect the admissibility of these kits as evidence in court proceedings. Violating this prohibition would be considered a violation of the Maine Unfair Trade Practices Act. This law primarily affects businesses or organizations that currently sell or distribute such kits to the public.
