Utah law against sex outside marriage could be repealed

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A law known as the fornication statute making sex outside of marriage a misdemeanor crime in Utah for more than four decades could be headed toward repeal.

The state Legislature voted Wednesday to repeal the measure, which now heads to Republican Gov. Gary Herbert. His office did not immediately respond to a request for comment on whether he will approve it.
=======================================
Some legislators consider the 1973 law unenforceable. 'Lawmakers also voted this year to repeal similar statutes against adultery and sodomy between consenting adults.'
 
Outdated unenforceable law with questionable intentions and social impact when it was originally dreamed up... all courtesy of "conservatives" try using governance as a means to control society.

Utah is pretty close to being a Mormon Church-run theocracy. A lot of parallels with the way Saudi Arabia is run.
