Expungements; authorize for certain trafficked persons.

SB 2322 would allow victims of human trafficking to receive an additional record expungement for prostitution convictions (beyond the standard one allowed under Mississippi law). It specifically adds trafficking victims (defined in §97-3-54.4(g)) to the list of eligible individuals for expungement, while maintaining that felony crimes like promoting prostitution (§97-29-51) cannot be expunged. This policy change directly affects trafficking survivors who were convicted of prostitution, enabling them to remove these records from public access. The bill aimed to reduce barriers to employment and housing by clearing these specific convictions, though it died in committee on March 4, 2025.
