This bill creates the crime of failing to report suspicious

employment; notices a photograph that appears to depict the
neglect, physical or sexual abuse, or other pornographic
depiction of what appears to be a child; and fails to report the
photograph to the local law enforcement agency or retain the

to inspect the photograph.  The penalty will be a class A
misdemeanor for the first offense and a class D felony for
subsequent offenses.
