Sodomy in history,
April 14
April 14
1851 — The Prussian criminal code makes sodomy male-male only, but eliminates the death penalty.
1881 — Indiana reinstates sodomy as a crime after a 29-year hiatus and includes the term "carnal knowledge of a man," thus possibly including fellatio. It also abrogates common-law crimes and outlaws "sex toys."
1958 — The Mississippi Supreme Court rejects an entrapment defense in a sodomy case.
1987 — Mississippi creates a "Sex Offense Criminal History Record Information" program. It creates a state registry of convicted sex criminals, including for consensual sodomy. Employers are permitted to request information about employees from it.
1994 — The Mississippi Supreme Court upholds the constitutionality of the state’s sodomy law. It also rules that penetration is not required to complete the crime.
