CRIMES AND PUNISHMENTS

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

This legislation rewrites Idaho’s human trafficking laws and related statutes regarding commercial sexual activity and imposes upon the Attorney General the duty to write a report on human trafficking every other year; maintain curriculum for educating prosecutors, law enforcement, victim advocates, and the public on human trafficking in Idaho; and assist county prosecuting attorneys in the investigation and prosecution of human trafficking. This legislation has three primary goals: (1) make Idaho’s human trafficking laws more victim-centered, (2) provide law enforcement with clearer and more effective laws for investigating and prosecuting human trafficking, and (3) provide state-level resources for combatting human trafficking.
