Sexual acts between incarcerated persons and law enforcement; prohibit.

HB 862 would prohibit law enforcement officers, correctional staff, and others with custodial authority from engaging in sexual acts with incarcerated individuals, people on probation/parole, or those in custody - even with their consent. It directly affects incarcerated people, those under correctional supervision, and law enforcement/correctional personnel. The bill defines violations as felonies punishable by up to five years in prison or a $5,000 fine. This legislation, which died in committee on February 4, 2025, aimed to eliminate consent as a defense for such misconduct.
