Protect Minnesota Kids Act Petition (PDF)
- Adopt the federal criminal code’s tougher sentencing for child predators with child sexual abuse imagery: receipt, distribution, and production all carry often serious mandatory prison time.
- Create a new crime of “Receipt,” with the same penalties as Dissemination, adopting the federal standard.
- Add “accessing with intent to view” to the crime of Possession, to close a potential loophole.
- Increases the allowable penalty for possession of child sexual abuse imagery when the victim is under the age of 12, adopting the standard from federal law.
Therefore: We the undersigned Minnesota voter supports the Protect Minnesota Kids Act to toughen penalties for child sexual abuse imagery and to increase law enforcement resources to combat child predators, especially those trading in child sexual abuse imagery.
