Millstone Act

This bill would change federal criminal penalties for a range of crimes involving the sexual exploitation of children and related offenses. For most of the listed crimes, it would add death as a possible punishment, alongside prison time. For several crimes that now have maximum prison terms, such as 10, 15, or 30 years, it would allow prison for any number of years or for life. The covered crimes include female genital mutilation, sex trafficking of children, sexual abuse of a minor, buying or selling children, child pornography offenses, and transporting or enticing minors for sexual activity.
