Introduced
by
To revise the definition of second degree criminal sexual contact (CSC 2) that applies to sex between a county jail prisoner or probationer and a county or state corrections employee or contractor. Under current law, this is by definition CSC 2, regardless of the context or circumstances. The bill would change this to require that the corrections worker have used his or her position of authority over the victim to coerce the victim to submit.
Referred to the Committee on Judiciary
Reported without amendment
With the recommendation that the substitute (H-2) be adopted and that the bill then pass.
Substitute offered
To replace the previous version of the bill with one that would clarify that only acts in which the actor used his or her position to gain access to, coerce, or otherwise encourage a relationship would fall under the provision. This version was bypassed in favor of another substitute that further tightens the language.
The substitute failed by voice vote
