An Act to recover assets used in the commission of sexual offenses

This bill (SD 75) requires the forfeiture of assets used to facilitate sexual offenses or related crimes, directly affecting convicted offenders and benefiting victims. It makes individuals convicted under specific Massachusetts sexual offense laws (chapters 265 sections 22-24C, 50, or 51) ineligible for remaining lottery prize money, with unclaimed portions returned to the state lottery fund. It also mandates forfeiture of all money used to pay for forced labor, sexual servitude, or to facilitate those crimes, with court-ordered restitution paid to victims from these seized funds. The law updates forfeiture procedures to specifically include lottery prizes and other state funds used in such offenses.
