New Jersey S2308 broadens the statute that criminalizes cyber-harassment of a minor.

New Jersey S2308 amends the existing law to broaden the statute that criminalizes cyber-harassment of a minor. The bill specifies that cyber-harassment is a crime of the third degree if the offender is 18 years of age or older and engages in any form of cyber-harassment of a minor. This change eliminates the previous requirement that the adult offender must impersonate a minor to be guilty of the crime.
