*********** ANALYSIS ADDENDUM - SUSPENSE FILE ***********
The following information is revised to reflect amendments
adopted by the committee on August 11, 2016
Bill
Summary: AB 1771 would expand the scope of the misdemeanor
offense of aiding or supervising a prostitute, as specified.
This bill would additionally authorize a juvenile court judge to
dismiss a petition filed for soliciting or engaging in an act of
prostitution, or for aiding or supervising a prostitute where
the minor committed the offense through duress or coercion.
Fiscal
Impact:
AB 1771 (O'Donnell) Page 1 of
?
Local jails : Potential increase in local incarceration costs
for new misdemeanor convictions to county jail under the
expanded scope of the offense. The DOJ indicates an average of
236 arrests for this offense in each of the past two years.
For every 10 percent of cases that are potentially impacted by
this measure, local incarceration costs could increase in the
hundreds of thousands of dollars (Local Funds) annually.
Committee
Amendments: Remove the enhanced penalty provisions in the bill.
