Pennsylvania lawmaker pushes to ban ‘disturbingly realistic’ child-like sex dolls

(WHTM) — A bill proposed in the State House would ban “child-sex dolls” in Pennsylvania.

According to the bill’s memo by Rep. Melissa Shusterman (D-Chester), these “disturbingly realistic sex dolls” are molded to look like young children and babies, and are “increasingly being found during criminal investigations.”

The memo says these dolls are manufactured overseas and are accessible to the United States because they are not currently prohibited under federal law.

Rep. Shusterman’s memo says the dolls are often found alongside other child sexual abuse material (CSAM), including photographs, videos, and computer files. While the later materials are labeled CSAM, Shusterman says the dolls are not.

The bill would update the Commonwealth’s definition of CSAMs to include these types of dolls and to make it a third-degree felony to import, traffic, and/or possess such dolls.

 The bill has not been submitted for introduction yet.
