AB 1272,
as amended, Grove. begin deleteTicket sellers. end deletebegin insertPersons with developmental disabilities: sexual exploitation.end insert
(1) Existing law establishes that the crime of sexual exploitation by a physician and surgeon, psychotherapist, or alcohol and drug abuse counselor has occurred when any physician and surgeon, psychotherapist, alcohol and drug abuse counselor engages in specified sexual acts with a patient or client, or with a former patient or client, as provided.
end insertbegin insertThis bill would provide that a developmental disability residential service provider is guilty of sexual exploitation when he or she engages in specified sexual acts with a person with a developmental disability who is an inpatient or resident of a treatment or care facility, unless the person is his or her spouse or domestic partner. Because this bill would create a new crime, it would impose a state-mandated local program.
end insertbegin insert(2) Existing law authorizes a judicial officer to issue an ex parte emergency protective order when a law enforcement officer has reasonable grounds to believe that a person is in immediate and present danger of domestic violence, a child is in immediate and present danger of abuse by a family or household member or may be abducted by a parent or relative, or when an elder or dependant adult is in immediate and present danger of abuse, as specified.
end insertbegin insertThis bill would also authorize a judicial officer to issue an ex parte emergency protective order when a law enforcement officer has reasonable grounds to believe that a person with a developmental disability is in immediate and present danger of sexual exploitation by a developmental disability residential service provider.
end insertbegin insert(3) Existing law requires that any time a peace officer is called out on a domestic violence call, the officer make a good faith effort to inform the victim of his or her right to make a citizen’s arrest, except as specified.
end insertbegin insertThis bill would, among other things, also require a peace officer who receives a call alleging that a person with a developmental disability is being sexually exploited by a developmental disability residential service provider, to inform the victim of his or her right to make a citizen’s arrest, except as specified. By imposting additional duties on local authorities, the bill would create a state-mandated local program.
end insertbegin insert(6) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that with regard to certain mandates no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
With regard to any other mandates, this bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs so mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.
end insertExisting law requires a ticket seller to have a permanent business address that shall be included in any advertisement and from which tickets may only be sold and requires the ticket seller to be licensed as may be required by a local jurisdiction. A violation of these provisions is a crime and is subject to a civil penalty.
end deleteThis bill would make a nonsubstantive change to that provision.
