Relating to the prosecution of the offenses of indecency with a child and sexual assault.

HB 1264 lowers the age of a "child" for sexual assault and indecency offenses from 18 to 17 years old. It requires judges to impose a "child safety zone" condition for offenders on probation or parole when the victim was under 17, restricting them from being within 1,000 feet of schools, playgrounds, or youth programs and mandating sex offender counseling. This directly affects individuals convicted of these crimes and the court system handling their supervision. The bill changes definitions across multiple laws to align the age threshold for child victims and safety requirements.
