Crimes: criminal sexual conduct; penalties for criminal sexual conduct in the second degree; modify.

Michigan House Bill 6261 amends the state penal code to modify penalties for criminal sexual conduct in the second degree.

It also mandates lifetime electronic monitoring for offenders who are at least 17 years old and commit sexual contact against a victim under 13 years of age. These changes apply to individuals convicted of various specific circumstances involving sexual contact with minors or vulnerable adults, such as those in positions of authority or within correctional facilities.
