Bill Summary
Relative to prohibiting child sex dolls. The Judiciary.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to add a new section to Chapter 272 of Massachusetts General Laws that specifically prohibits child sex dolls, which are defined as anatomically correct dolls, mannequins, or robots that have features resembling a minor and are intended for use in sexual acts. Under this legislation, anyone who knowingly uses, possesses, buys, sells, transports, delivers, or distributes a child sex doll in Massachusetts would face significant legal penalties, including a fine of up to $10,000 and/or imprisonment for up to 5 years for a first offense, with enhanced penalties for subsequent offenses - specifically, potential fines up to $10,000 and imprisonment for up to 10 years for each additional offense. The bill aims to criminalize the possession and trade of these objects, which are considered highly inappropriate and potentially harmful, by establishing clear legal consequences for individuals who engage with child sex dolls.
