Advocate seeks update of flawed obscenity law
Topeka resident Phil Cosby pressed the Kansas House committee to fix an obscenity statute he calls flawed. He argues current language blocks prosecutions against adult shops selling items deemed unwholesome by community standards, citing a Lion's Den case and a 1990 Supreme Court ruling as gaps. He advocates removing broad phrasing to allow prosecutions based on local standards while lawmakers weighed potential impacts and concerns.
