Relating to: prosecuting or adjudicating delinquent a person under the age of 18 for committing an act of prostitution.

Senate Bill 73 prevents individuals under the age of 18 from being prosecuted for committing an act of prostitution. It amends current law to explicitly state that a person under 18 cannot be charged under the statute defining this offense (944.30 (1m)). The bill also makes conforming changes to other statutes, removing requirements for DNA collection and certain expungement provisions that would otherwise apply to offenses under this section for minors. This legislation establishes a non-prosecutorial approach for minors involved in acts of prostitution.
