Stiffening penalties for child luring crimes

In the third episode of our four-part series on Sheriff Mina's
legislative priorities, we explore the mission to strengthen
protections for our children with Lt. Chip Denmark. We discuss
the current law in Florida, where luring or enticing a child
under 12 into a secluded space is shockingly only a misdemeanor.
Highlighting the need for change, Sheriff Mina proposes making
this act a felony.
