Torts; prohibiting prosecution for certain acts; clarifying actions deemed reasonable. Effective date.

SB 1103 protects citizens who intervene during violent crimes by prohibiting legal prosecution for reasonable actions taken to defend a victim. It applies to anyone witnessing a violent crime (defined as per Oklahoma law), covering actions to stop the crime and ensure the victim's safety until police arrive. The bill explicitly states that "reasonable actions" include both stopping the crime and safeguarding the victim. It becomes effective November 1, 2025, and codifies these protections in Oklahoma Statutes. The law does not apply to officials acting in their official capacity.
