Bill > HB1647

This bill adds a new section to Pennsylvania's criminal code that criminalizes the possession, trafficking, and importing of child sex dolls. Specifically, the bill defines three distinct offenses: possessing a child sex doll, trafficking a child sex doll (which includes manufacturing, distributing, selling, transferring, or advertising), and importing a child sex doll with intent to distribute or transfer. A "child sex doll" is defined as an anatomically correct doll, mannequin, or robot that has features resembling an infant or child under 12 years old and is intended for sexual stimulation. The bill creates a rebuttable presumption of trafficking if a person possesses two or more such dolls, and includes an exception for common carriers who are unaware of the contents of a shipment. Any violation of these provisions is classified as a third-degree felony, which typically carries potential prison time and significant criminal penalties. The law will go into effect 60 days after its passage, giving time for law enforcement and the public to become aware of the new criminal provisions.
