HB 5922

Abstract

Amends the Criminal Code of 2012. Provides that the charge of child pornography does not apply to the creator of a film, video, photograph, or other similar visual image or depiction in which the creator is the sole subject of the film, video, photograph, or other similar visual image or depiction. In the statute concerning an obscene depiction of a purported child, defines "indistinguishable" and provides that "purported child" means a visual representation that depicts an individual indistinguishable from an actual (rather than appears to depict a) child under the age of 18 but may or may not depict an actual child under the age of 18. Amends the Bill of Rights for Children and the Unified Code of Corrections to make conforming changes. Effective immediately.
