BILL NUMBER:S1882 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the penal law, in relation to sexual abuse of a person under the age of thirteen PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: This bill would strengthen New York State's criminal laws that relate to adults who sexually abuse children. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Section one of this bill would amend Penal Law §130.65 as amended by Chapter 1 of the Laws of 2000, by providing that a person is guilty of sexual abuse in the first degree when he or she is twenty-one years old or older and subjects another person to sexual contact who is less than thirteen years old. Section two of this bill would provide for the effective date. JUSTIFICATION: In 2001, the New York State Legislature enacted the Sexual Assault Reform Act (SARA). Among other amendments, SARA amended Rape in the First Degree, Penal Law §130.35(4) and Criminal Sexual Act (formerly Sodomy) in the First Degree, Penal Law §130.50(4). Pursuant to SARA, it is a class B violent felony when a perpetrator over the age of eighteen has sexual intercourse or anal or oral contact with a victim
