Child endangerment penalties-amendments.

HB 215 proposes to increase penalties for parents, guardians, or custodians who endanger children and cause specific severe harm, including sexual assault (as defined in Wyoming law) or certain child abuse (under W.S. 6-2-503). It creates new felony penalties: up to 5 years in prison and $5,000 fines for a first offense resulting in such harm, and up to 10 years in prison with $10,000 fines for second or subsequent offenses. The bill specifically targets cases where endangerment directly leads to these aggravated outcomes, not general child endangerment violations. It was introduced in 2019 but died in committee and never became law.
