Sexual activity between certain individuals incarcerated in correctional facilities; clarify.

Mississippi's SB 2306 amends a state law prohibiting sexual activity between correctional staff or supervisory personnel and individuals in custody. The bill replaces the term "offender" with "person" and clarifies that the law applies to anyone in custody - including incarcerated individuals, those on probation/parole, or detained persons - regardless of their legal status. It prohibits staff (like guards or correctional employees) and civilians with supervisory authority from engaging in sexual acts with these individuals, even with consent, and sets penalties of up to $5,000 or 5 years in prison for violations. The bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and did not become law.
