2022 Florida Statutes (including 2022C, 2022D, 2022A, and 2023B)
SECTION 001
Offenses by adults involving minors; intent.
Offenses by adults involving minors; intent.
796.001 Offenses by adults involving minors; intent.—It is the intent of the Legislature that adults who involve minors in any behavior prohibited under this chapter be prosecuted under other laws of this state, such as, but not limited to, s. 787.06, chapter 794, chapter 800, s. 810.145, chapter 827, and chapter 847. The Legislature finds that prosecution of such adults under this chapter is inappropriate since a minor is unable to consent to such behavior.
