South Dakota would make it a felony to create, allow the creation of, or distribute child-like sex dolls—dolls designed to resemble minors and intended for sexual use. A first offense would be a Class 4 felony, but a second offense within 15 years would increase to a Class 3 felony. This creates a new crime in state law aimed at restricting these specific items.
