Criminal procedure: trial; qualifications of expert witnesses in human trafficking cases; modify. Amends sec. 462g of 1931 PA 328 (MCL 750.462g).

HB 5013 modifies Michigan's criminal procedure law (MCL 750.462g) to clarify rules for expert testimony in human trafficking prosecutions. It allows qualified experts - such as those with specialized training in criminal justice, behavioral sciences, or victim services - to testify about typical victim behaviors and responses in trafficking cases. The bill also prohibits such experts from commenting on witness credibility and protects victims by ensuring truthful testimony cannot be used against them in criminal cases (except for perjury). This directly affects courts, prosecutors, defense attorneys, and victims in human trafficking trials.
