Bill Summary
Crimes and offenses, further provides for obscenity crimes
AI Summary
This bill amends sections of the Alabama Code to further define and regulate obscenity crimes. It provides definitions for terms like "obscene," "harmful to minors," and "sexual conduct," and establishes certain exceptions for public libraries and schools. The bill also creates a process for residents or parents to notify libraries or schools of potentially obscene material, giving them a limited time to address the issue before a law enforcement agency can get involved.
