SB 189-CRIME OF SEX/HUMAN TRAFFICKING 2:01:23 PM CHAIR HOLLAND announced the consideration of SENATE BILL NO. 189 "An Act relating to sex trafficking; establishing the crime of patron of a victim of sex trafficking; relating to the crime of human trafficking; relating to sentencing for sex trafficking and patron of a victim of sex trafficking; establishing the process for a vacatur of judgment for a conviction of prostitution; and providing for an effective date." [SB 189 was previously heard on 2/28/22, 3/2/22, and 3/4/22. Public testimony was opened and closed on 3/4/22.] 2:01:36 PM CHAIR HOLLAND asked if members had any final questions. 2:01:43 PM SENATOR KIEHL directed attention to Section 22 on page 17 of SB 189, regarding sentencing someone for purchasing sex, which is a class A misdemeanor. He referred to AS 12.55.135(q)(1), which would impose a mandatory 72-hour minimum sentence. He asked if the lookback period would be infinity if the person had been previously convicted two or more times. 2:02:51 PM JOHN SKIDMORE, Deputy Attorney General, Department of Law, Anchorage, Alaska, stated that this subsection did not have a lookback period. He offered to review the statute, which he believed had a lookback period. 2:03:27 PM At ease 2:03:59 PM CHAIR HOLLAND reconvened the meeting. 2:04:11 PM MR. SKIDMORE explained that AS 12.55.145(a)(3) relates to prior convictions, referring back to AS 12.55.135(g), which provides five years for previous convictions, so it is a five-year lookback period. 2:05:09 PM CHAIR HOLLAND held SB 189 in committee.
