HB 3754 makes it a felony for staff members at certified Oklahoma juvenile facilities (like the Central Oklahoma Juvenile Center) to knowingly bring prohibited items into secure areas. It bans weapons, drugs, alcohol, tobacco products, cell phones, unauthorized money, and other contraband, with penalties including 1-5 years in prison or fines up to $1,000. The bill directly affects facility staff, not residents, and applies to all certified secure juvenile facilities statewide. It amends Oklahoma law to clarify these restrictions and strengthen security protocols within juvenile detention settings. The law takes effect November 1, 2026.
