HB 345: Increase the penalties for voyeurism

This bill amends the Ohio Revised Code to increase penalties for voyeurism. It defines voyeurism as secretly or surreptitiously recording or viewing another person in a place where they have a reasonable expectation of privacy, without their consent. The bill outlines specific situations where voyeurism is prohibited, including recording minors, and individuals in private settings. Penalties for voyeurism are increased, with first-time offenders facing misdemeanors, and repeat offenders facing felonies. The bill also repeals the existing section of the code.
