AB1073,1,2
1
An Act
to amend
948.09 of the statutes;
relating to:
sexual contact or sexual
2
intercourse with a child who is at least 16 years old and providing a penalty.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, a person who is at least 19 years of age is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor if the person has sexual intercourse with a child who is at least 16 years old and who is not the person’s spouse.
This bill provides that it is a Class I felony for a person who is at least 19 years of age to have sexual contact or sexual intercourse with a child who is at least 16 years old and who is not the person’s spouse.
Under current law, the penalty for a Class A misdemeanor is a fine of up to $10,000 or imprisonment for up to nine months, or both, and the penalty for a Class I felony is a fine of up to $10,000 or imprisonment for up to three years and six months, or both.
Because this bill creates a new crime or revises a penalty for an existing crime, the Joint Review Committee on Criminal Penalties may be requested to prepare a report.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
AB1073,1
3
Section

.
948.09 of the statutes is amended to read:
