Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, there are various crimes involving sexually related activity, such as prohibitions against a person exposing his or her genitals in public or com mitting a sex act in public. This bill prohibits a person from going or remaining on the property of another, without consent, and looking into a building at another. The prohibition applies only if the person is acting for purposes of sexual gratification or arousal. Upon conviction, a violator may be fined not more than $10,000 or impris oned for not more than 9 months or both. Persons who attempt to commit this new crime are subject to the same penalties.
