SCS/SB 774 - This act creates the crime of endangering a Department of Mental Health employee, visitor or other person at a secured facility, or another person ordered to the department. A person ordered to the department as a sexually violent predator commits such act if he or she attempts to cause or knowingly causes any such individual to come into contact with blood, seminal fluid, urine, feces, or saliva. This crime is equivalent to the crime of endangerment by a criminal offender against a Department of Corrections employee, visitor, and other offender. Such offense is a class D felony unless the substance is unidentified, in which case it is a class A misdemeanor. If the person is knowingly infected with HIV, Hepatitis B or C and exposes another person to such disease, by committing this crime, it is a class C felony. SUSAN HENDERSON MOORE
