AI Summary

This bill aims to enhance the lives of survivors of human trafficking. It amends the existing laws by inserting language to include certain criminal offenses related to human trafficking under section 59 of chapter 265, allowing for the sealing of court records for individuals who were previously charged with these offenses but had the charges dismissed, received a not guilty verdict, or had a nolle prosequi (decision not to prosecute) entered. This provision is intended to help remove barriers to employment and other opportunities for survivors of human trafficking.
