ASSEMBLY MEMBER FONG FOR
INVITING ME TO BE HERE AND
THANK YOU MR- THAT MISTER CHAIR
FOR YOUR WORK ON THIS BILL IN
YOUR ASSISTANCE AND THAT OF
YOUR STAFF. I'M PROUD TO
PRESENT THIS BILL TODAY TO
BRING OUR SIDE SHOWS IN
CALIFORNIA IN LINE WITH OUR-
TRAFFIC LAWS ABOUT SPEED
CONTESTS. SIDESHOWS REFORM OF
ORCHESTRATED SPEED EXHIBITION
THAT OCCURS. WHEN TWO OR MORE
VEHICLES WORKTOGETHER TO BLOCK
TRAFFIC. TO DO THE VEHICLE
STANDS TO DO SPEED CONTESTS- ON
OUR PUBLIC STREETS. PUTTING THE
PUBLIC A GREAT JEOPARDY. NOW WE
HAVE LAWS- DEALING WITH SPEED
CONTESTSWERE TWO CARS ARE
RACING SIDE TO SIDE. BUT WE
DON'T HAVE THE SAME LAWS IF
SOMEONE'S DOING IF WE HAVE
THREE OR FOUR VEHICLES DOING
DONUTS IN THE MIDDLE OF AN
INTERSECTION. DOING RACING ONE
BY ONE AND OTHER DANGEROUS AND
RECKLESS BEHAVIOR. SO THE
ATTEMPT OF THIS BILL IS TO
GIVE. THOSE JUST AS DANGEROUS-
CONTESTS THE SAME GRAVITY UNDER
THE LAW. AS STREET RACING. NOW
WE KNOW THAT IN LOS ANGELES
THIS IS A HUGE AND GROWING
PROBLEM. AS MOVIES ENGINE UP
THE IDEA OF THESE TYPES OF
CONTESTS WE HAVE SEEN DEADLY
RESULTS. WITH PEOPLE
PARTICULARLY IN OUR
DISADVANTAGED IN BLACK AND
BROWN COMMUNITIES BEARING THE
BRUNT OF THE DEATHS AND
INJURIES. BECAUSE OF THESE BE
CONTESTS. ARE THE MY DEATH IN
TWO THOUSAND ROAD BY 24% AS
LESS PEOPLE WERE DRIVING ON THE

GREATEST INCREASE YEAR INCREASE
IN NINETY SIX YEARS. CHP
RESPONDED TO OVER TWENTY FIVE
THOUSAND CALLS PER SPEED

DETERMINED THAT SPEEDING IT
KILLED MORE THAN FIVE HUNDRED
PEOPLE IN CALIFORNIA IN TWO
THOUSAND TWENTY. AND BECAUSE
ALMOST SIXTY THOUSAND INJURIES.
SPEEDING IS RESPONSIBLE 431% OF
ALL TRAFFIC FATALITIES. IN THIS
COUNTRY. AND MOTOR VEHICLES
EXHIBITIONS OF SPEED LIKE SPEAK
CONTACTS ADDED EXTRA LAYER OF
OFFENSIVENESS. TO SPEEDING IT'S
NOT JUST GOING OVER THE SPEED
LIMIT BECAUSE YOU'RE YOU MAYBE
DIDN'T NOTICE EARLY TO WORK
IT'S DOING IT JUST TO SHOW OFF
FOR OTHER PEOPLE. THESE
DANGEROUS SIDE JOBS ARE PUTTING
PEOPLE AT RISK FOR THE PURPOSES
OF THE LEGAL ENTERTAINMENT AND
WE NEED THE DISCRETION. TO HIT
PEOPLE WHERE THEY REALLY CARE
ABOUT WHICH IS SUSPENDING THEIR
LICENSE FOR A SHORT TIME TO
BASICALLY SHOW THEM. THAT
DRIVING IS A PRIVILEGE NOT A
RIGHT AND THAT THEY HAVE A
RESPONSIBILITY TO USE THAT CAR
AS A TRANSPORTATION VEHICLE NOT
AS A WEAPON. WITH THAT I WOULD

QUESTION I- YOU KNOW I
GENERALLY DON'T BELIEVE THAT
BILLS LIKE THIS- WILL I WILL I
LET ME REPHRASE THAT I THINK
FOLKS ARE ENGAGED IN THIS KIND
OF BEHAVIOR PROBABLY NOT
CHECKING THE PENAL CODE TO
FIGURE OUT WHAT EXACTLY THEY
SHOULD BE DOING WHEN THEY
DECIDE TO STREET RACE- SO I AM
WONDERING IF THERE IS. ANY DATA
ON- IF THIS KIND OF LEGISLATION
HAS BEEN PASSED AND ENACTED IN
OTHER STATES AND IF SO WHAT'S
BEEN ITS RATE OF AFFECTED
BUSINESS IN THOSE STATES
BECAUSE I UNDERSTAND THAT THE
INTENT BEHIND THIS BILL IS TO
CURB THIS KIND OF ACTIVITY.
CONTRA APPRECIATE QUESTION UP.
IF YOU LOOK AT THE DATA FOR-
REMOVING ARE SUSPENDING
SOMEONE'S LICENSE WHEN IT COMES
TO DO EYES OR TO ACTUALLY TO
STREET RACING SPECIFICALLY IT'S
BECAUSE AS- DETERRENCE RATE IS
ACTUALLY VERY SIGNIFICANT- I WE
ACTUALLY HAVE THE CHP HERE- FOR
ANY TECHNICAL QUESTIONS. AND
I'M SURE THEY'LL BE HAPPY TO
PROVIDE ANY SPECIFIC DATA BUT-
THE REDUCTION OF- RECIDIVISM.
BUT WHEN IT COMES TO- DO YOU
EYES ABOUT 65% AND THE
REDUCTION IN RECIDIVISM WHEN IT
COMES TO- STREET RACING THIS BE
CONTACTED SO IT'S ACTUALLY OVER
90% IF YOU LOOK AT THE DATA AT
THE CBS BUT- CERTAINLY DIFFERS
THIS DISEASE BE IF THEY'RE
HERE. HAPPY TO LEND. ABOVE THEN
THE MY TIME. IF HAVE. I AM SURE
THAT THE SUPPORT BY JUNE KAMARG
VIA DE TO ADDRESS THAT WOULD
LOVE TO HEAR THAT. GOOD
AFTERNOON CHAIR MEMBERS OF MY
COVERS OF THE CALIFORNIA
HIGHWAY PATROL- ALTHOUGH THE
DEPARTMENT DOES NOT HAVE A
FORMAL POSITION ON THE BILL. HI
THIS IS V. IS AWARE THAT- THAT
SPOT EXHIBITION SPEED. DOES
PRESENT A UBIQUITOUS PROBLEM
THROUGHOUT THE STATE WITH
RESPECT TO PUBLIC SAFETY
CONCERNS- TO ANSWER THE
QUESTION WITH RESPECT TO
RECIDIVISM. I YES WE DO HAVE
DATA WITH RESPECT TO RECIDIVISM
RATES. TO FOR A SPEECH CONTEST
CURRENTLY. LAW DRIVER'S LICENSE
SUSPENSIONS ARE STATUTORILY
AUTHORIZED- FOR ANYBODY THAT
HAS BEEN CONVICTED OF A SPEED
CONTEST- IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA. ALL THE COURT CASES
ADJUDICATED IN TWO THOUSAND
SEVENTEEN CALIFORNIA COURTS
BORDER FOUR HUNDRED THIRTY ONE
DRIVER LICENSE SUSPENSIONS.
AFTER SPEED CONTEST
CONVICTIONS. AND RECIDIVISM
RECIDIVISM RATE DROPPED A
NINETY NINE POINT THREE
PERCENT. IN TWO THOUSAND
EIGHTEEN CALIFORNIA COURTS
ORDER FOUR HUNDRED FORTY DEAL
SUSPENSIONS. AND THE RECIDIVISM
RATE DROP NINETY EIGHT POINT
EIGHT PERCENT. IN TWO THOUSAND

ORDERED THREE HUNDRED FORTY
NINE DRIVER LICENSE SUSPENSIONS
AFTER CONVICTIONS. AND THE
RECIDIVISM RATE A RATE DROP
NINETY NINE POINT FOUR PERCENT.
OF THE TWENTY TWENTY CASES THAT
HAVE BEEN ADJUDICATED THUS FAR.
OF THE RECIDIVISM RATE DROPPED
1100% MEDIAN THAT ARE CURRENTLY
THERE ARE NO CONVICTED
OFFENDERS. THAT HAVE BEEN A RE
CONVICTED. FOR A SPEED CONTEST
VIOLATION. I THINK THE QUESTION
ALSO WAS IS THERE ANY STATES
THAT HAVE ENACTED LAWS
SPECIFICALLY AS IT RELATES TO
THIS- ST EXHIBITIONS AND-
OCCUPYING INTERSECTIONS AT THIS
BILL IS REALLY TRYING TO
ADDRESS. WE DON'T HAVE ANY
OTHER STATE DATA ARE READILY
AVAILABLE FOR THAT. OKAY THE
CONGRESS. YOU'RE RIGHT. SENATOR
I'M TROUBLED. THANK YOU MISTER

DISCUSSIONS NO ONE OF- SENATOR
ASSEMBLY MINIMUM FONG I
APPRECIATE ARE YOU WORKING WITH
THIS COMMITTEE I TO HEAR
CONCERNS AS IT RELATES TO- THIS
BILL- AND I. AGREE THERE IS A
GROWING PROBLEM WITH
EXHIBITIONS- SPEED IN THE
THREAT THAT IT PUTS THE GENERAL
PUBLIC NOT ONLY DRIVING PUBLIC
A WALKING AS WELL AND I'VE SEEN
WHAT IT DOES AND- OCCUPYING
INTERSECTIONS FOR. SOMETIMES
HOURS AT A TIME- WITHOUT ANY
RESPONSE BY LAW ENFORCEMENT-
AND IT IS A GROWING PROBLEM
THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BUT
YEAH I WOULD I TOO WAS
QUESTIONING- ANY. HISTORICAL
DATA OF HOW THIS IS WORKED IN
OTHER STATES FOR OTHER. AREAS
AND I KNOW IT'S PROBABLY NEW TO
FALL FOR ALL OF THIS BECAUSE
IT'S A GROWING PHENOMENON. OVER
THE LAST COUPLE YEARS BUT IT'S
ONE THAT REALLY NEEDS TO BE
ADDRESSED BECAUSE IT'S TOTALLY
GOTTEN OUT OF HAND EVEN TO THE
POINT OF. JUST WHAT IT DOES TO
THE STREET HIS OWN TEARING UP
ASPHALT AND- LEAVING BEHIND ON
TO SCREECH MARKS ALL IN THE
MIDDLE OF THE STREET TO- I JUST
WANT TO KNOW- YOUR CURRENT
ADDRESS STOOD- I WILL SEE THREE
DID. BUT OUR- FULL FOLLOW AREA
ADDRESS SOME OF THOSE CONCERNS
ANYTHING OR CLOSE. BY THE
CERTAINLY THIS THAT THE RATE OF
INCREASE THE NUMBER OF
CITATIONS HAVE HAVE HAVE RISEN-
CERTAINLY WELL AWARE OPENED AT
SEIZE PLEASE OPEN TO COLLECTING
THE DATA AS WE MOVE FORWARD-
BUT THAT WAS SOMETHING HAS TO
BE DONE- AS THE CHAIR
TRANSPORTATION INDICATED- THIS
IS A GROWING PROBLEM STATEWIDE
AS AS AS YOU SAID MISTER CAIR-
THE DATA THAT SHOWS. THE SAME
TYPES OF- WHO WOULD THAT WE
LOOK AT SUSPENSIONS OF LICENSES
FOR OTHER TYPES OF A SIMILAR
ACTIVITIES THAT THE REDUCTION
OF RECIDIVISM IS SIGNIFICANT-
SO- THIS IS WHAT THIS BILL
BRINGS THE PARITY- THE TWO
BEHAVIORS THAT ARE RELATED A
NUMBER OF TIMES IF YOU LOOK AT
THAT THOSE WHO PARTICIPATE. IN
SPEECH CONTESTS THEY ARE ALSO
PARTICIPATING IN SUCH AS SO
THIS BILL VERY NARROWLY DEFINES
WHAT A SIDE SHOW IS AND
APPLIES- THAT PARITY- SIMILAR
TO- ST CONTEST. A TO THAT
BEHAVIOR. I'M A BIG BIG GREAT
COURTROOM JUST OUR SYSTEM. IN
LIEU OF LICENSE SUSPENSION HAD
BEEN CONSIDERED HAVING AN
INDIVIDUAL- BEAR THE COST OF ST
REPAIRER ANY DAMAGES THAT WERE
DONE FROM SUCH ACTIVITIES. BUT
WELL MOST OF THE- THE PREVIOUS
LEGISLATION THAT ATTEMPTS AT
LEGISLATION HAVE BEEN
IMPOUNDMENTS OR- AND ENHANCED
FOUNDRIES HE FELT THAT THIS
WAS- SOMETHING THAT CREATED
PARITY BETWEEN THE TWO
BEHAVIORS- WE CERTAINLY ARE
OPEN TO THAT IDEA- MAYBE IN THE
FUTURE BUT NO THAT THAT HASN'T
BEEN SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN
CONSIDERED IN OTHER
JURISDICTIONS. THANK YOU- WE
TALKED CLOSE DIED I JUST WANNA

SUPPORT OF THIS BILL R. ESTEBAN
NOON YES ON BEHALF OF THE ANTI
RECIDIVISM COALITION. COALITION
CO SPONSOR OF THE PEACE ACT AND
JENNIFER FELDMAN ON BEHALF THE
CALIFORNIA POLICE CHIEFS
ASSOCIATION. THEY WERE BOTH
TESTIFIED VIA REMOTE
TELECONFERENCING LINE. IT WILL
GIVE A TOTAL OF THREE MINUTES A
TO MINUTE HAVE EACH TO MAKE
YOUR TESTIMONY SO MISSING
KNOWING US IF YOU'RE READY YOU
CAN BEGIN YOUR TESTIMONY MISTER
MODERATOR. THANK YOU SIR KAREN
MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE MY
NAME IS THAT BY NOON AS I AM
THE DIRECTOR OF ADVOCATES AND
COMMUNITY ORGANIZING WITH THE
ANTI RECIDIVISM COALITION ALSO
KNOWN AS ARC. ARC MEMBERS KNOW
VERY WELL THE IMPORTANCE OF
HAVING PEACE OFFICERS
SPECIFICALLY THOSE THAT WORK
WITHIN CORRECTIONS. TO HAVE THE
MENTAL CAPACITY TO MAKE
OBJECTIVE DECISIONS IN HIGH
STRESS HIGH STAKES SITUATION.
WE MUST CONTINUE TO RECOGNIZING
HAVE POLICIES THAT REFLECT
BRAIN. THE PREFRONTAL. WHICH
GOVERNS EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONS OF
REASONING ADVANCED DOT AND
IMPULSE CONTROL IS NOT FULLY
DEVELOPED UNTIL THE MID TWENTY.
NINE SHOULD BE REFLECTED IN THE
POLICY THAT GUIDES OUR LAW
ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS. I MEAN
PROPER EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND.
OR IF FULLY DEVELOPED BRAIN
HELPS INDIVIDUALS IN POSITIONS
OF AUTHORITY DEVELOP A DEEPENED
UNDERSTANDING OF THE VARIOUS
FACTORS THAT PLAY INTO
CRIMINALITY SUCH AS TRAUMA.
THIS REDUCES THE RISK OF
UNLAWFUL OR IMPULSIVE USE OF
FORCE AND INCREASES THE
PROBABILITY OF REHABILITATION
FOR THOSE INCARCERATED. AS MANY
OF YOU KNOW ON THE INCARCERATED
I SPENT SIX YEARS IN PRISON FOR
THE TRAGIC ANIMATRONIC VERSION
THAT MADE MY USE. DURING MY
INCARCERATION I WORKED IN MY
CHILDHOOD TRAUMA TO BETTER
UNDERSTAND THE DRIVING FORCE
BEHIND MY DECISION BEHIND MY
DECISION. IN DOING SO I THOUGHT
SUPPORT AND GUIDANCE FROM MY
FAMILY PEERS AND EVEN
CORRECTIONAL OFFICERS. IN MY
EXPERIENCE IT WAS A
CORRECTIONAL OFFICERS WHO
ACHIEVED A DEGREE IN HIGHER
EDUCATION THAT TREATED ME AND
THOSE INCARCERATED AROUND. NEED
A HOPE AND COURAGE TO WORK TOO
MUCH PROBLEM. I ALSO FOUND
THOSE WITH NO HIGHER EDUCATION
OR MARKET TO SPEAK TO US YET
QUICK TO FOLLOW IN THE
LEADERSHIP OF OTHERS. WHO
REGULARLY DEMEANED AND
BELITTLED. WITH NO REGARD FOR
REHABILITATION OF SUPPORT.
CORRECTIONAL OFFICERS ARE
INDIVIDUALS IN POSITIONS OF

CERTIFICATES BEING ISSUED BY
PEOPLE'S THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
I'M SURE THERE'S NO ONE ELSE
INTO AT THIS TIME BURKE WILL
BRING YOU BACK TO THE COMMITTEE
AT THIS TIME EITHER QUESTIONS
BY COMMITTEE MEMBERS AS RELATES
TO AB EIGHTY NINTH. CENTER COME
ON. I DON'T THINK YOU MISTER
CHAIR I JUST WANNA THANK THE
ASSEMBLY MEMBER. FOR BRINGING
THIS- BUILT FORWARD AND FOR
YOUR COMMITMENT. IN THIS SPACE.
YOU KNOW I DON'T NECESSARILY
AGREE THAT- BOOK SMARTS- AND
AKADEMI ARE THE ONLY ANSWER BUT
YOU KNOW I'M- ONE OF THE BEST
THINGS ABOUT A COLLEGE
EXPERIENCE. IS THAT IT PROVIDES
YOU THE SPACE. TO LEARN SKILLS-
PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS DECISION
MAKING SKILLS- TIME MANAGEMENT-
IT PROMOTES DISCIPLINE- AND
ALLOWS YOU THE SPACE THE SAFE
SPACE. TO EXPERIMENT WITH THOSE
SKILL SETS AND FAIL. AND THEN
LEARN NEW TOOLS AND SKILLS THAT
WILL ALLOW YOU TO BE
SUCCESSFUL. AND I THINK
ULTIMATELY THAT'S WHAT IS AT
THE HEART OF THIS BILL HOW DO
WE- CREATE DIFFERENT
OPPORTUNITIES. FOR FOLKS WHO
ARE INTERESTED IN LAW
ENFORCEMENT. BY ENCOURAGING-
THESE RECRUITS. WHO HAVE THESE
KINDS OF SKILLS BECAUSE MOST OF
WHAT WE ARE SEEING- ON THE NEWS
AND IN REPORTS AROUND- POLICE
MISCONDUCT. REALLY HAVE TO DO
IS KIND OF FAULTY DECISION
MAKING OR FAULTY PROBLEM
SOLVING SKILLS- AND SO I THINK
THIS IS- AN ELEGANT APPROACH
AND YOU KNOW THE REALITY IS IF
NOTHING ELSE IT MIGHT ATTRACT A
DIFFERENT CALIBER OF RECRUITS
AND I THINK ULTIMATELY WE CAN
ALL AGREE THAT THAT IS
SOMETHING. THAT WE WANT TO SEE
SO I THINK YOU AGAIN I'M FOR
BRINGING THIS FORWARD AND FOR
WORKING WITH THE OPPOSITION.
THANK CENTER CENTER TROUBLE.
SEVERAL CLARIFICATION PURPOSES-
WITH THE AMENDMENTS THAT YOU
ARE TAKING YOU ARE ACCEPTING TO
LOWER THE AGE OF TWENTY ONE SO
MY ORIGINAL QUESTION HAD BEEN-
HOW DID YOU COME UP WITH THE
TWENTY FIVE YEAR. AGE OUR AGE
AND THEN NUMBER TWO JUST- SO
NOW IT IS I UNDERSTAND IT'S
TWENTY ONE YEARS WITH A DEGREE
OR BY COMPLETING THE NEW DEGREE
PROGRAM OUR CHURCH ON SEPT I
POSTED AND THAT'S THE STANDARD
TRAINING RIGHT RIGHT CORRECT
WITH THE NAY GOSH SO HOW WE
CAME UP WITH THE- TWENTY FIVE
YEARS OF AGE WHEN WE TALK TO
THE PROFESSIONALS. THE SPECTER
AS FOR SHIA. ONE OF. THAT ARE
CAL STATEFULLERTON DR
CHRISTINE GARDNER SHE
RECOMMENDED TWENTY FIVE- AND AS
I ALSO DID MY OWN IT IS OBVIOUS
IS NOT. EMPIRICAL WORK IN ANY
WAY BUT WHEN YOU WHEN YOU TALK
TO A LOT OF. WOMEN WHO Nó MEN
A LOT OF THEM WILL SAY THAT
MOST MENTAL MATURING JULY
THIRTY SO TWENTY FIVE SEEM LIKE
A GOOD PLACE TO START. THAT
DISCUSSION BUT THE WHOLE
DISCUSSION ABOUT- GIVEN AN
EIGHTEEN YEAR OLD. A GUN AND A
LICENSE TO KILL AND THEN PUT
HIM OUT IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS IN
THE STREET JUST I THINK IT WAS
APPARENT EVEN TO LAW
ENFORCEMENT. AND SO THAT BECAME
A GOOD COMPROMISE ALSO SINCE A
LOT OF LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES
ALREADY KIND OF STIPULATE TO
TWENTY ONE YEARS OF AGE SO IT'S
REALLY ABOUT MAKING SURE THAT
THAT INDIVIDUAL WHO STARTS. IS
MATURE ENOUGH AND WIDE ENOUGH
THIS IS ABOUT. QUALITY OFFICERS
GOING AND NOT QUANTITY OF
OFFICERS GOING TO. AND DO YOU
HAPPEN TO KNOW HOW THE
PROFESSOR I CAME UP WITH THE
AGE OF TWENTY FIVE BUT STATE
DOES SO OUR DOCTOR CHRISTINE
GARTNER RESEARCH FROM CAL STATE
FULLERTON SHOWCASE THAT
INCREASE EDUCATION REQUIREMENT.
DOES NOT NECESSITATE A GROUP
TYPE REDUCTION AND THAT'S IT
ELIGIBILITY OF MINORITY CAN IN
FACT NATIONAL RATE THE SERVICE
SHOWN THAT- ROLE THAT THE
RECRUITMENT CHIEFS AND SHERIFFS
HAVE OFTEN REQUIRE THAT SO SHE
ALSO DID STUDIES ON THE FRONTAL
LOBE AND I THINK YOU I KNOW
YOU'RE NEW TO THE COMMITTEE BUT
WE'VE DONE A LOT OF- STUDIES.
ON PEOPLE WHO ARE CONVICTED OF
CRIMES IN FACT IF YOU'RE
THIRTEEN FOURTEEN WE'VE SAID
THEY MAY NOT BEEN TO MATURE
ENOUGH EVEN THOUGH THEY'VE DONE
A HEINOUS CRIME THEY MAY NOT
HAVE HAD THE MENTAL CAPACITY OR
THE MATURITY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT
THEY WERE DOING SO WE'VE WE AS
A AS A STATE WE'VE LOWERED THAT
BECAUSE OF NOT JUST HER BUT
OTHERS HAVE COME IN. AND
TESTIFIED THAT- OLDER BUT
TWENTY FIVE YEARS SEEM TO BE
THE AGE WHERE WE WOULD SAY LOOK
AT THAT AGE AND OLDER THEY'RE
RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS
AND SO WE'VE WE'VE ALLOW PEOPLE
WHO'VE DONE SOMETHING YOUNGER
TO GET OUT EARLIER FOR A
FEDERAL CRIMINAL SIDE SO WHY
AREN'T WE DOING THAT ON. THE ON
THE POLICE ARE. THANK YOU.
THANK YOU AND I THINK YOU HAVE
SOME JONES SAWYER FOR YOUR
LEADERSHIP IN THIS AREA HI TO-
THE LESSER ME BELIEVE. A-
COLLEGE DEGREE IN IT OF ITSELF
GOING TO SOLVE SOME OF THE
PROBLEMS THAT WE FACE SOME LAW
ENFORCEMENT BUT I THINK WE ALL
HAVE TO AGREE- MORE WORLD
EXPERIENCE MORE- KNOWLEDGE IS
ALWAYS GOOD- AND WE KNOW THE
MAJORITY OF POLICE OFFICERS. IN
THIS COUNTRY IN IN STATE- OVER
75% OF JUST HAVE A HIGH SCHOOL
DIPLOMA THOMAS SO. I THINK IT
WOULD BE- WE ALL WOULD ALL BE
BETTER SERVED IN WILL CREATE A
LITTLE BIT OF A GREATER DEGREE
IN TRUSTING CONFIDENCE IF- THEY
DID HAVE A LITTLE BIT MORE
EXPOSURE- TO THE WORLD AND IF
THAT'S TO THE COLLEGE DEGREE
THEN I'M ALL FOR THAT- SO I
WANT TO. THANK YOU FOR. WORKING
WITH THE COMMITTEE AND BRING
THIS MATER FORD AND- FOREIGN.
ALL WHO ARE YOU CLOSE. BUT WHEN
THANK THE COMMITTEE FOR THE
FOR. AMENDMENTS FOR. HAVING
THIS SPACE. TO DIVE IN AND
ADVERTISED FOR PEOPLE FROM
DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES AND
MINORITIES I THINK WILL ALSO.
HELP BRING THIS IS A
CLASSIFICATION OFFICERS TO MAKE
IT EVEN MORE DIVERSE. SILENT
THANK YOU FOR YOUR AMENDMENT
BECAUSE I. THINK IT WAS A
BRILLIANT WAY. TO EXPAND THAT
AND RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR
I. PHONE. THANK YOU WE HAVE A
TO PASS AS AMENDED TO COAX A

SKINNER. THE MEASURE OF THREE
VOTES WILL LIBERAL OPEN FOR OUR
ABSENT MEMBERS SHOT OFF. THANK
YOU NOW WE'RE MOVING ON TO
FOLLOW NUMBER THREE AB TWO TO
THREE BY ASSEMBLYMEMBER WARD
AFTER WE DO OUR HOUSE. KEEPING
WILL YOU CAN GET IN YOUR
TESTIMONY. THEY MEDICARE
MEMBERS ARE I WOULD LIKE TO
START OFF WITH OFFERING
PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO AB TWO
TO THREE THAT CHANGES THE
MINIMUM DOLLAR AMOUNT FOR THE
FIRST AND SECOND OFFENSE BY
POACHING DUDLEYA CAPS THE
MAXIMUM DOLLAR AMOUNT FOR FINES
AND CHANGE THE PENALTY FROM A
PER PLANTED TO RESTRICT DOLLAR
VALUE VIOLATION THE MOMENTS
WILL ALSO CREATE AN EXEMPTION
FROM THE PENALTIES FOR
PURCHASING OR SELLING DUDLEYA.
UNDER TWO HUNDRED FIFTY DOLLARS
IN VALUE TO ENSURE THAT THE
FOCUS IS ON THE LARGE POACHERS
AND NOT SOMEONE WHO MISTAKENLY
FIND THEMSELVES IN POSSESSION
OF A FEW ILLEGALLY HARVESTED
PLANTS THESE PROPOSED
AMENDMENTS COME OUT OF
DISCUSSIONS YESTERDAY WITH THE
ACLU AND COMMITTEE STAFF AND I
UNDERSTAND WITH THESE MEMBERS
OF THE ECL WOULD REMOVE THEIR
OPPOSITION. BUT WHAT IS AB TWO
TO THREE IT MAKES IT UNLAWFUL
TO TAKE DE LEON FROM ITS
NATURAL HABITAT ON LAND OWNED
BY THAT STATE OR LOCAL
GOVERNMENT OR ON PROPERTY
THAT'S NOT ONE'S OWN DUDLEY IS
A GENUS OFSUCCULENTS THAT
INCLUDES FORTY SEVEN SPECIES
TWENTY SIX OF WHICH ARE FOUND
IN NATIVE HABITATS THROUGHOUT
THE STATE. RECENTLY THIS GENUS
HAS BECOME INCREDIBLY POPULAR
AND SOME OTHER COUNTRIES A
SINGLE PLANT A TYPICALLY SELL
FOR FIFTY TO EIGHTY DOLLARS AND
SOMETIMES UP TO A THOUSAND
DOLLARS FOR A LARGER MATURE
DUDLEYA PLANTS AS A RESULT
POACHERS HAVE BEEN HARVESTING
DUDLEY ABOUT THE THOUSANDS
TARGETING THESE LARGER MORE
MATURE PLANTS ALONG OUR COAST
AND THEN SHIPPING THEM OVERSEAS
AND SELLING THEM ELSEWHERE.
WHILE THE COURTS HAVE BEEN
CREATED IN PENALIZING POACHERS
THE FINE AMOUNTS THAT CAN BE
LEVIED ARE MINUSCULE WHEN
COMPARED TO THE AMOUNT OF MONEY
POACHERS COULD MAKE SELLING THE
PLANTS ON THE UNDERGROUND
MARKET THE PENALTIES
ESTABLISHED THROUGH TV BE TWO
TO THREE ARE ANALOGOUS WITH
RECENT LEGISLATION TO ADDRESS
IVORY AND SHARK FIN POACHING.
SO BY EXPLICITLY MAKING IT
UNLAWFUL TO POACH DUDLEYA AND
ESTABLISHING STRONGER PENALTIES
FOR VIOLATIONS AB TWO TO THREE
WILL HELP DETER THIS POACHING
AND PROMOTE EFFECTIVE LAW
ENFORCEMENT ON THE LINE TODAY I

HOMELAND SECURITY AND DISASTER
RESPONSE INCLUDING THE
EVACUATING OF HOSPITALS IN THE

INCREASED SINCE THEY WERE
INITIALLY ESTABLISHED IN JULY
OF NINETEEN NINETY THREE. AND
AS WITH OTHER EMERGENCY
HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS THE COVERT
NINETEEN CRISIS IS PLACED AN
ADDITIONAL ECONOMIC STRAIN ON
PROVIDERS. THE US ANY REDUCTION
OF FUNDING PROVIDED BY A MODEL
AT THIS TIME WOULD UNDOUBTEDLY
PLEASE THE ECONOMIC VIABILITY
OF MANY EMERGENCY HELICOPTER

PARTICULARLY IN RURAL AREAS AND
THOSE PROVIDING SERVICES TO

DISPROPORTIONATELY HIGH
PERCENTAGE OF MEDIC CAL
UTILIZATION. AB ELEVEN OH FOUR

LONGER AYE SKINNER. SKINNER I.
THE BILL HAS FISH BOAT TO GET
OUT WILL LOSE ROLE OF THE
ABSENT MEMBERS THANK YOU. NOW
GO PRACTICE TO SEE SOME
MOVEMENT HAS READY. FOR WE HAVE
TWO TWO NINE. SEVEN WHEN YOU'RE
PREPARED YOU MAY BEGIN THANK
YOU MISTER CHAIR AT FIRST I'D
LIKE TO THANK YOU AND YOUR
CONSULTANT AS WELL AS ITS HERE
OF SENATE BMP AND HIS
CONSULTANT FOR WORKING WITH MY
STAFF AND CAL SEGA. TO ADDRESS
THE CONCERNS THAT COUNTS SIX
PRESTON BMP. I ACCEPT OF THE
AMENDMENTS THAT WERE AGREED
UPON AND I HOPE THAT THOSE
AMENDMENTS SATISFY YOUR SENATE
COLLEAGUES. THAT WANTED TO SEE
US COME TO A RESOLUTION ON THE
TRAINING AND REPORTING ASPECTS
OF THIS BILL. TURN MEMBERS
TODAY I'M PRESENTING ASSEMBLY
BILL TWO TWENTY NINE A BILL
THAT PROHIBITS A PERSON
REQUIRED. TO BE REGISTERED AS A
SECURITY GUARD FROM CARRYING OR
USING A FIRE ARM OR BATON
UNLESS THE SECURITY GUARD IS AN
EMPLOYEE. OF A PRIVATE PATROL
OPERATOR LICENSEE HARM POORLY
OF THE STATE. MEMBERS AS THE
COUNTRY WHAT'S THE TRIAL OF
DIRECTOR CHILDREN. THE EX
POLICE OFFICER CHARGED WITH THE
KILLING OF GEORGE FLOYD. THERE
WAS A SIMULTANEOUS DISCUSSION
REGARDING LAW ENFORCEMENT IN
THE TRAINING OF THE APPROPRIATE
USE OF FORCE. THE CONVICTION OF
THEIR CHILDREN WAS THE FIRST
STEP IN SECURING JUSTICE FOR
GEORGE FLOYD NOW THE NATION
SETS ITS SIGHTS ON THE OTHER
THREE OF POLICE OFFICERS THAT
FAILED TO INTERVENE AND
ULTIMATELY WATCHED. AS GEORGE
FLOYDS FINAL MOMENTS ON EARTH
EXPIRED. BUT TODAY I WANT TO
ACKNOWLEDGE AND BRING AWARENESS
OF THE FACT THAT THERE. ARE
OTHER MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY
THAT CARRY FIREARMS OF THE
TAUNTS. THEIR EMPLOYEE TO KEEP
OUR NEIGHBORHOODS AND PROPERTY
SAFE AS WELL AS THE FINANCIAL
DEALINGS. OF BUSINESS
BUSINESSES THROUGHOUT THE STATE.
THEY ARE HARD TO KEEP THE PEACE
AT SPORTING EVENTS AND
CONCERTS. THEY ARE OUR PRIVATE
SECURITY GUARDS. WHILE PRIVATE
SECURITY GUARDS DIFFER FROM LAW
ENFORCEMENT IN A NUMBER OF
AREAS. I WOULD ARGUE THAT THEY
OFTEN FACE SIMILAR SITUATIONS
EVEN TRAGIC ONES. MEMBERS MARIO
MATTHEWS WAS A MEXICAN AMERICAN
WHO WORKED AS A WAREHOUSE
WORKER. ACCORDING TO A LAWSUIT
FILED BY HIS PARENTS ON JULY
SECOND TWO THOUSAND NINETEEN AT
AROUND THREE THIRTY AM AFTER
ATTENDING AN OUTDOOR CONCERT
FOLLOWING TO IN THE ACCIDENT
NBA EXPERT TO EXHIBITION GAMES.
MARIO ENTER THE GOLDEN ONE
CENTER HERE IN SACRAMENTO. UP
TO OPEN DOOR WHICH WAS PART OF
THE MAIN ENTRANCE. VIDEO
SURVEILLANCE SHOWED MARIO
RUNNING AROUND THE COURT AND
DRIBBLING AS IF HE WAS PLAYING
BASKETBALL. INTO UNIVERSAL
PROTECTION SECURITY PERSONNEL
BEGAN SIXTY MARIO AND
EVENTUALLY DETAINED HIM. THE
LAWSUIT ALLEGES THAT MARIO WAS
SLAMMED FACE FIRST INTO A WALL
TACKLED AND RESTRAINED FACE
DOWN ON THE FLOOR. WHEN THE
BILL'S HANDS WERE HANDCUFFED
BEHIND HIS BACK AND THE TWO
SECURITY PERSONNEL GOT ON TOP
OF HIS BACK. WHILE SECURITY
GUARDS USE HIS RIGHT KNEE TO
APPLY PRESSURE TO THE SIDE OF
MARIO'S MAC. MAXIMALLY FOUR AND
A HALF MINUTES. IN ADDITION TO
THE IITIAL TO UNIVERSAL
PROTECTION SECURITY PERSONNEL A
THIRD SECURITY OFFICER PLACED
HIMSELF ON MORROW'S BACK. LARA
BECAME UNRESPONSIVE AND WAS
TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL. HE
PASSED AWAY TWO DAYS LATER THE
LAWSUIT CLAIMS THAT THE
SACRAMENTO COUNTY CORONER
KNOWLEDGE THAT RESTRAINT WAS A
CAUSE OF MORROW'S DEATH.
ADDITIONALLY THE CORONER'S
PATHOLOGIST NOTED DEEP BRUISING
TOMORROW'S BACK AS A RESULT OF
THE WEIGHT AND PRESSURE THAT
HAVE BEEN PLACED ON HIM. MARIO
WEIGHED A HUNDRED AND TWENTY
FIVE POUNDS. WELL THE NATION
DEBATES LAW ENFORCEMENT
TRAINING AND THE APPROPRIATE
USE OF FORCE PRIVATE SECURITY
GUARDS CURRENTLY HAVE NO
TRAINING REQUIREMENTS FOR
COURSES ON THE APPROPRIATE USE
OF FORCE. AB TWO TWENTY NINE
WOULD ADD THE APPROPRIATE USE
OF FORCE TO THE TRAINING
COURSES WITHIN THE PRIVATE
SECURITY SERVICES ACT INCLUDING
TRAINING ON THE USE OF
OBJECTIVELY REASONABLE FORCE.
DE ESCALATION TECHNIQUES
IMPLICIT AND EXPLICIT BIAS AND
CULTURAL TRAINING. ADDITIONALLY
THIS BILL WOULD REQUIRE THE
COURSE IN THE CARRYING AND USE
OF FIREARMS TO INCLUDE TRAINING
IN THE APPROPRIATE USE OF FORCE.
IT IS MY HOPE THAT THIS
LEGISLATION COULD HELP SAVE
OTHERS. WITH ME TODAY TO
TESTIFY IN SUPPORT THIS STUART
KATZ AN ATTORNEY FOR THE FAMILY
OF MARIO MATTHEWS. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK RIVAL. YOUR
PRIMARY WITNESSES PREPARED YOU
MAY BEGIN ASSESSMENT. THANK YOU
FOR YOUR SHARE MEMBERS MY NAME
IS TO WORK AT. FAMILY OF
MERRILL MATTHEWS AFTER THAT
CASE ARE EERILY PRESCIENT OF
WHAT HAPPENED TO GEORGE FLOYD
IN TERMS OF THE PRESSURE FROM
THE NECK. BUT SENATE PRETTY I
WOULD NEED AND THIS WAS A
SITUATION WHERE I DON'T LIKE
WITH GEORGE FLOYD THESE
INDIVIDUALS DID NOT HAVE THE
TRAINING THAT INDICATED THAT.
WHAT THEY WERE DOING WHAT
IMPACT LIFE THREATENING. BOB
ACCOUNT IN THE COURSE OF MY
THIRTY PLUS YEAR CAREER
MULTIPLE OTHER INSTANCES WHERE
THE REALLY TRAGIC. ANNIVERSARY
OUTCOMES WITH SECURITY GUARDS
WHO SIMPLY DON'T HAVE THE
TRAINING COOLEY ONE CASE WHERE
AN INDIVIDUAL ARE ALMOST. 11%
OF BODY YOU SUFFERED THIRD
DEGREE BURNS FROM BEING
CHALLENGED. ON A PARKING LOT.
NECESSARY IN OF FACT THERE ARE
MORE SWEET WHITE RICHARD GUARD
IN THE WORK OFFICERS.
INTERSTATE CAL. APRIL INTERACT
WITH THE PUBLIC PAPER GLENROCK
WITH MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC. WHO
HAVE VERY FORMS OF DISABILITY
IS OF A MENTAL NATURE OF
PRIMARILY IN IMPORTS OF ALCOHOL
OR DRUGS. AND INTERACTION WHERE
YOU BRING GET A TRAGIC CON. AND
THESE POSTERS DON'T HAVE ANY
TRAINING- THE ROLE OF BENEFIT
THIS TRAIN WILL PROVIDE GOING
FROM ZERO TO AT LEAST TWENTY OR
THIRTY MILES AN HOUR IT'S A
HUGE DIFFERENCE IN WHAT WE
CURRENTLY HAV- THERE'S NO COST
REALLY IS TRYING TO RESTORE
CORD OUT OF TRAINING IT IS
ADDITIONALLY NOT TO HAVE
REQUIRED OF TRAINING REGARDING
THE USE OF FORCE. WHICH WE
PROMOTE CREDIT CONSEQUENCES I
WOULD URGE AND REQUEST THAT YOU
DO APPROVE THE- BILL THANK YOU.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TESTIMONY IS

THEN ZERO AT THIS TIME. PICTURE
NONI QUEUING UP IN SUPPORT AT

IN OPPOSITION OR TESTIFYING
TELEPHONICALLY. YES SIR IF YOU
THIRTY MAYBE GAINES TESTIMONY
US THROUGH MOST. THANK YOU MY
NAME IS ALEX HADDOCK'S AND I'M
A CO OWNER OF SECURITY TRAINING
CENTER WHERE COMPANY THAT
PROVIDES JOB TRAINING FOR THE
PRIVATE SECURITY INDUSTRY. WE
DO NOT OFFER PHYSICAL SECURE
SECURITY SERVICES WE FOCUS
EXCLUSIVELY ON NEW JOB TRAINING
AND CONTINUED SECURITY
EDUCATION ASK PRESCRIBED BY THE
B. S. I. S. THANK YOU FOR
LETTING ME SPEAK TODAY IN
OPPOSITION TO ASSEMBLY BILL TWO
TWO NINE. THE PROVISION IN AB
TWO TWO NINE THAT MAKES THE
INITIAL EIGHT HOURS OF TRAINING
CALL THE POWERS TO ARREST
COURSE EXCLUSIVELY LIVE
CLASSROOM TRAINING IS TERRIBLE
FOR CALIFORNIANS. AND
DISENFRANCHISED IN FOR THE
WORKING POOR AND UNDER
EMPLOYED. IT WILL COST PEOPLE
LIFE CHANGING JOB OPPORTUNITIES
WHICH BASE TO REALLY NEED NOW
MORE THAN EVER. OUR PRIVATE
SECURITY IS EXTREMELY LIMITED
THEY ARE NOT GRANTED SPECIAL
POLICE POWERS THEY HAVE NO MORE
SPORTY THAN YOU OR I DO.
SECURITY GUARDS ARE CIVILIANS
WHO HAVE BEEN TRAINED TO
OBSERVE AND REPORT. THEY'RE
INSTRUCTED TO INTERVENE IN
EXTREMELY LIMITED PASSIVITY AND
CALL LAW ENFORCEMENT WHEN
APPROPRIATE. HOW TO RISK
COURSES NOT JUST THE FIRST
COURSE STERN A SECURITY GUARD
LICENCE IT IS THE COURSE WHERE
THE LIMITATIONS ON AUTHORITY
ARE TAUGHT. MOST SECURED
EMPLOYERS WILL NOT INTERVIEW A
CANDIDATE UNLESS THEY'VE
ALREADY COMPLETED THE POWERS TO
ARREST CORPORIS AND HOLD A
SECURITY GUARD LICENSE. ALL
EMPLOYMENT AND FUTURE TRAINING
PROHIBITS ON THIS ONE COURSE.
TALENT COULD LIMIT DISCOURSES
ACCESSIBILITY TO ONLY THOSE WHO
CANAFFORD TO TRAVEL TO A
TRADITIONAL CLASSROOM CREATES
AN UNNECESSARY BARRIER TO ENTRY
FOR THOUSANDS OF CALIFORNIANS
SEEKING BETTER JOBS. USING OUR
COMPANY AS AN EXAMPLE WE HAVE
TWO FACILITIES IN THE GREATER
LOS ANGELES AREA. SO FAR THIS
YEAR THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF
TWENTY TWENTY ONE WE TRAINED
ELEVEN PEOPLE ON THE POWER TO
ARREST. DURING THE IDENTICAL
PERIOD WE HAVE TAUGHT THE SAME
COURSE ONE THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED
FIFTY SIX TIMES ONLINE. ELEVEN
VERSES ONE THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED
FIFTY SIX. THAT'S OVER A
THOUSAND NEW JOBS IN CALIFORNIA
USING ONLINE JOB TRAINING. THE
FLEXIBILITY OF ONLINE TRAINING
ALLOWS THE UNDER EMPLOYED AND
WORKING POOR TO GET THE
CRITICAL JOB TRAINING THEY NEED
TO RESTART THEIR LIVES. THE
SAME GROUP OFTEN CANNOT AFFORD
A PERSONAL CAR THEY MUST RELY
ON PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION. MANY
PARTS OF CALIFORNIA ESPECIALLY
IN THE RURAL AREAS DO NOT HAVE
LOCAL TRAINING FACILITIES. THE
DISTANCE BETWEEN THE FACILITY
CAN BE A HUGE BURDEN OR
INSURMOUNTABLE BARRIER. BUT
AGAIN ONLINE TRAINING IS THE
BEST SOLUTION HERE NO TRAVELS
NEEDED. THE TRAINING CAN BE
KEEP COMPLETED ON A SMARTPHONE
TABLET OR COMPUTER FROM A HOME
OR SHELTER. IF NONE OF THESE
DEVICES ARE OWNED OR CAN'T BE
BORROWED THE LOCAL PUBLIC
LIBRARY CAN BE USED. EVERY TOWN
HAS A PUBLIC LIBRARY BUT NOT
EVERY TOWN HAS A SECURITY GUARD
TRAINING FACILITY. THE BETTER
JOB INSECURITY OR A SECOND PART
TIME JOB AND SECURITY CAN HELP
LIFT THE WORKING POOR AND UNDER
EMPLOYED OUT OF POVERTY. THE
FLEXIBILITY THAT ONLINE JOB
TRAINING OFFERS SHOULD NOT BE
DISMISSED. NOT ONLY CAN THE
TRYING TO BE COMPLETED FROM
HOME BUT IT CAN ALSO BE
COMPLETED AT ANY HOUR. RATHER
THAN SIX TWO BUSINESS HOURS
ONLINE TRAINING ALLOWS A
CANDIDATE TO COMPLETE THE
COURSE WORK DAY OR NIGHT. DON'T
AFTER A LONG DAY THE WORKING
PARENT CAN COME HOME SPEND TIME
WITH THE FAMILY AND THEN
COMPLETE THE JOB TRAINING AFTER
THE KIDS ARE ASLEEP. JUST AS
IMPORTANT THE ONLINE JOB
TRAINING DOES NOT FORCE THE
WORKING PARENT TO SKIP A DAY OF
WORK TO ATTEND TRAINING FOR A
SECOND OR BETTER JOB. BUT
LEGISLATION IS CURRENTLY POSED
BUT PROPOSED SHOULD BE AMENDED
TO PERMIT ONLINE TRAINING TO
CONTINUE AS IT IS PRESENTLY
AUTHORIZED BY THE BSS. IN
ADDITION I SUPPORT THE
STRENGTHENING OF THE BASIC
TRAININGS- TRAINING AS SET
FORTH IN PROPOSED LEGISLATION.
AND OFFER MY KNOWLEDGE AND
EXPERTISE IN FURTHER INTO THE
SCHOOL. WE NEED TO KEEP HIS JOB
TRAINING ACCESSIBLE AND KEEP IT
AFFORDABLE TO ALL- ACCESS TO
ONLINE JOB TRAINING WILL
UNFAIRLY AFFECTED THE
ECONOMICALLY VULNERABLE IN
CALIFORNIA. THIS IS WHY SIMPLY
BILL TWO TWO NINE CANNOT PASS
AT AS CURRENTLY WRITTEN. ONLINE
TRAINING MUST BE PRESERVED.
THANK YOU NOW WILL GO TO THE
HEARING ROOM FORTY TWO- THREE
ARE THERE WITNESSES IN
OPPOSITION OF AB TWO TWO NINE.
SHE NINE WILL GO TO R. OR FLOOR
ROOM AND THERE'S NO ONE THERE
AS WELL MODERATOR DO WE HAVE
CALLERS DESIRING TO TESTIFY IN
OPPOSITION OF AB TWO TO KNOCK.
IF YOU LIKE TO TESTIFY IN
OPPOSITION PLEASE PRESS ONE AND
ZERO AT THIS TIME. AND WE DO
HAVE ONE WE'RE GOING TO GO TO
LINE NUMBER ONE HUNDRED AND
EIGHTY TWO THAT'S ONE A TO YOUR
LINE IS OPEN. LOCHER AND
MEMBERS JERRY DESMOND ON BEHALF
THE CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF
LICENSED INVESTIGATORS. NOT IN
OPPOSITION TO THE BILL. THAT
ARE WERE WORKING WITH THE
AUTHOR IN THE COMMITTEE STAFF
ON A TECHNICAL AMENDMENT. THAT
ACTUALLY MAY BE IN ONE OF THE
AMENDMENTS TAKEN TODAY AS A-
AND A AND A MEMBER OF THE
COMMITTEE. TO ADDRESS SOME
ARCANE PROVISION IN THE PRIVATE
INVESTIGATOR ACT. SINCE PRIVATE
INVESTIGATORS DO NOT HELP THE-
STATUTORY POWER TO ARREST. OR
TO USE FORCE TO MAKE SURE THAT
THAT IS CLARIFIED IN THE LAW.
THAT LACK OF POWER AND THAT THE
APPLICATION THE BILL. NECESSARY
THANK YOU. THANK YOU. MR SURE
NO ONE ELSE IS QUEUED UP IN
OPPOSITION AT THIS TIME RIGHT-
BRING BACK TO THE COMMITTEE ARE
THERE ANY QUESTIONS FOR AS SOON
HOLDEN AS IT RELATES TO AB TWO
TWO NINE. YES CENTER TROUBLE. I
JUST HAD A QUESTION WITH REGARD
TO THE CONCERN THAT WAS
EXPRESSED EARLIER- WITH THE-
THE FORMER EDUCATOR I'M ALL
ABOUT CHOICES AND OPTIONS- BUT
YOUR YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE
POSSIBILITY OF HAVING AN
ONLINE. COMPONENT YES THE BILL
PART OF WHAT WE ADDRESSING OUT
OF THE BMP DISCUSSION COMMITTEE
DISCUSSION WAS THAT THE BILL
WOULD HAVE 50% CLASSROOMS 50%
ONLINE. BECAUSE OF SOME OF WHAT
IS BEING EXPECTED TO RAISE THE
GOING TO PROBABLY REQUIRE IN
PERSON TECHNIQUE TRAINING
SIMULATION AND THINGS OF THAT
NATURE. AND BUT NO THIS IS NOT
WE RECOGNIZE THAT THERE IS
STILL A LOT OF ELEMENTS OF HOW
THESE OFFICERS ARE TRAINED FOR
THESE INDIVIDUALS ARE TRYING TO
BE- SECURITY PERSONNEL THEY CAN
BE DONE ONLINE AND WE
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT AND SO THE
BILL STILL CREATES AN
OPPORTUNITY FOR THAT. TO OCCUR.
AND HOW WOULD YOU ADDRESS THE-
THE IN PERSON- COMPONENT THAT
IS REQUIRED CURRENTLY AND IT'S-
ITS ABILITY TO LIMIT THE AMOUNT
OF PEOPLE THAT COULD QUALIFY
TO- ATTEND OR PARTICIPATE IN
THIS PROGRAM RIGHT. FIRST OF
ALL WE'VE BEEN WORKING VERY
CLOSELY WITH CARL SAGAN TO
ADDRESS THESE TYPE OF ISSUES
AND I MEAN I TERMS OF IN A
CLASSROOM THERE ARE- LOCATIONS
AND IT'S MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH
A PROGRAM THROUGH- EXISTING.
TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES BUT
WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH KOUSEI
GOOD TO KIND OF INSTRUCTORS AND
SHOW US HOW THIS WOULD BE
WORKING OUT AS WELL BUT WE'VE
BEEN COLLABORATING THEY
SUPPORT. HERE WE ARE. BECAUSE I
THINK CLEARLY THIS IS- AS WE'VE
SEEN NOT ONLY IN THE INSTANCE
THAT I. RECITED AND MY
PRESENTATION BUT WE'VE SEEN IT
IN SAN DIEGO. WHERE OUR
SECURITY PERSONNEL BASICALLY
NOT EXACTLY KNOWING HOW TO USE
TECHNIQUE APPROPRIATELY. KILLED
AN INDIVIDUAL DOWN IN THE SAN
DIEGO AREA- AND SO WE'RE
STARTING TO SEE MORE AND MORE
INSTANCES WHERE. THERE NEEDS TO
BE OF GREATER FOCUS. ON THESE
HOW THESE TECHNIQUES ARE USED
DE ESCALATION TECHNIQUES IN THE
LIGHT BECAUSE THEY COME IN
CONTACT WITH THE PUBLIC AS
WELL. AND SO TO HAVE THE PROPER
TRAINING THAT IN SOME INSTANCES
REQUIRE IN PERSON. IS WHAT THIS
BILL IS TRYING TO ADDRESS BUT
ALSO RECOGNIZING. THAT THE
ONLINE IS A PORTENT- VEHICLE
THAT CAN STILL BE ACCESSED FOR
PEOPLE TO. TO GET THE TRAINING
OFFERED AS WELL. DO YOU HAVE A
QUESTION FOR THE GOOD OF THE
STATURE. THE LAST SPEAKER WHO.
MADE REFERENCE TO SOME
TECHNICAL AMENDMENTS WE ARE
WORKING. WITH AND THAT JUST
CAME OUT RECENTLY. AND SO WE'RE
TRYING TO- GARON'S AROUND ALL
OF THAT BUT I THINK THEY'RE ALL
TECHNICAL AS HE SAID AND WE'RE-
WILL BE COMFORTABLE CONTINUE TO
WORK ON THAT. THE ADDITIONAL
QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS BYE
COMMITTEE MEMBERS. SO I'M
UNDERSTAND THAT THESE ARE
MEMBERS THAT YOU AGREE TO AND
BMP AND THAT WILL WORK AS IT
REGIS COMMITTEE TO GONNA THAT'S
CORRECT OKAY HOW COULD NOT I'M
TO THE POINT. THE SAME ISSUES
WERE BROUGHT UP AND THOSE ARE
THE AMENDMENTS THAT WERE TAKEN
TO ADDRESS THE 50% FINALIZATION
AREN'T BURKE SHINO FOR THE
QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS- MISTRAL
WHICH ELECT CLOSE. RESPECTFULLY
ASK RIVAL. ARE WE WERE SEEKING
A MOTION TO PASS AS AMENDED OR
WILL BE AMENDED AND GOING TO

COMMITTEE. THANK YOU WE MOVING
ON TO ITEM NUMBER SIX EIGHTY
TWO EIGHTY TWO WHICH FROM
ASSEMBLYMEMBER LACKEY AND ONCE
WE HAVE PREPARED THE PODIUM
WITH PLEASE FEEL FREE TO BEGIN.
THANK YOU MADAM VICE CHAIR
MEMBERS. THANK YOU FOR THE
OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT AB TWO
EIGHTY TWO. LAST YEAR THE
LEGISLATURE PASSED THE BILL
WHICH WAS AB THIRTY TWO THIRTY
FOUR BY- ASSEMBLY MEMBER TEAM.
THE AUTHORIZED VERSION FOR ALL
MISDEMEANOR OFFENSES EXCEPT
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE STALKING.
CRIMES THAT WOULD REQUIRE A
PERSON TO REGISTER AS A SEX
OFFENDER. HOWEVER THIS BILL
CREATED AMBIGUITY AND POTENTIAL
CONFLICT WITH SPLIT STATE LAW
BECAUSE CALIFORNIA VEHICLE CODE
SECTION TWENTY THREE SIX FORTY.
ALREADY PROHIBITS DO YOU EYES
AND DELAYS WITH INJURY TO BE
ELIGIBLE FOR DIVERSION.
FURTHERMORE THE GOVERNOR
RECOGNIZED THIS COMPLEX LAST
YEAR SIGNING MESSAGE WHICH HE
STATED HE WANTED TO REVISIT
THIS POLICY AND QUOTE UNQUOTE
EXPLICITLY. HOW DO YOU AYE
CRIMES TO THE INELIGIBLE LIST
FOR DIVERSION. WELL THAT'S WHAT
THIS BILL DOES. IT EXPLICITLY
PROHIBITS DIY APPROACHES FROM
BEING ELIGIBLE FOR DIVERSION.
THIS BILL SIMPLY CLARIFIES ANY
AMBIGUITY THAT COULD ARISE WITH
LAST YEAR'S AB THIRTY TWO
THIRTY FOUR THE STATION ALL THE
LIES ARE ELIGIBLE FOR DIVERSION.
DIVERSION AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO
CRIMINAL CONVICTION FOR
OFFENDERS. IT ALLOWS OFFENDERS
TO ESCAPE CONVICTION AVOID JAIL
TIME AND HAVE THE REST RECORDS
RELATED TO THE CRIME HE RACED.
FURTHER ALLOWS DANGEROUS
OFFENDERS TO AVOID LIMITS ON
FIREARMS POSSESSION AND DENIES
VICTIMS COMPENSATION. FOR THEIR
INJURIES OR LOSS. DURING MY
TIME AS A HIGHWAY PATROLMAN I
CAN TELL YOU. THAT THE WHEN YOU
ARRIVE AT THE SCENE OF A
COLLISION THAT INVOLVED A
FATALITY. AND THE DRIVER
RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COLLISION
WAS AN IMPAIRED DRIVER. IT'S A
TRUE TRAGEDY ON ALL ASPECTS. MY
AGE I FELT DISHEARTENED ALSO
FOR THE DRIVER. THEY WERE
UNAWARE OF THE TRUE. DANGER
THEY POSE TO THE PUBLIC.
HARDEST PART IS WHEN YOU HAVE
TO NOTIFY A MEMBER OF THE
FAMILY THAT- THEIR FAMILY
MEMBERS NEVER GONE HOME AND I
DID THAT OVER FORTY TIMES
ANYWAYS. DRIVING UNDER THE
INFLUENCE. AS PART OF MY LIFE.
AND I CAN'T ERASE THE MEMORIES
THAT I HAVE OF THE TRAGEDY
ASSOCIATED WITH THIS. PROBLEM
IT'S A SERIOUS CRIME MUST BE
TREATED AS SUCH WITH ME TODAY
IS NINA SOLARO MUSSELMAN WITH
CRIMES I'M SORRY WITH CRIME
VICTIMS UNITED AND AMANDA WITH
AUTO CLUB OF SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA. THE. WE HAVE A K
LEAD WITNESS ON THE ONLINE.
YEAH THE REPORT OF THE SMOKER
AND ATTENTION AT IT. PLEASE
PROCEED MA'AM. I WANT TO THANK.
THE TO SPEAK ON BEHALF OF CRIME
VICTIMS OF CALIFORNIA. WHY WE
SUPPORT REHABILITATIVE MEASURES
FOR THOSE WHO HAVE- OFFENDED
AND HURT OTHERS IN SOCIETY WE
ALSO ARE STRONG SUPPORTERS OF
THE COUNT ABILITY AND THE
IMPORTANCE OF NOT ALLOWING
DIVERSIONS FOR UNDER THE
INFLUENCE DRIVERS IS. CRITICAL
TO PUBLIC SAFETY CALIFORNIA HAS
A POINTED OUT BY THE ASSEMBLY
MEANT. DO YOU LIVE PLAGUE OUR
STATE THEY TAKE LIVES STATE
NAME PEOPLE WE- THIS PROCESS IS
GREAT MORE PEOPLE DIE FROM DIY
INJURIES. AND IF WE ALLOW FOR
DIVERSION WE ARE THEN NOT DOING
ANYTHING TO HOLD THOSE
ACCOUNTABLE BUT ALSO TEACH THEM
WHEN SOMEBODY IS CONVICTED OF A
FIRST TIME DUI OFFENSE. THEY
ARE MANDATED TO GO TO DO YOU
AYE SCHOOL THEY ARE MANDATED TO
TAKE VICTIM IMPACT PROGRAMS THE
PROBLEM WITH THE BILL THAT WAS
PASSED THAT ALLOWED PER
DIVERSION. IT DOESN'T STATE
SPECIFICALLY WHAT THESE
OFFENDERS WOULD DO FOR
DIVERSION AND THAT WOULD BE
SUBJECT TO WHOEVER THE
SENTENCING COURT WAS SO COULD
BE VERY WELL AND VERY WELL
MEANING BUT THAT SOMEBODY THAT
HAS COMMITTED A FIRST TIME
OFFENSE UNDER G. WHY WOULD NO
LONGER BE MANDATED TO TAKE THE
VICTIM IMPACT PROGRAM. YOUR
PARTICIPATE IN THE LIVE CALL
PARTICIPATE NAY BECAUSE A LOT
OF THE TRUTH OF THE PROBLEM IS
ADDICTION AND IF WE ALLOW TO
VERSION TWO X. EIGHT ALLOW
PEOPLE TO SKATE PERHAPS
LEARNING FROM THE ABILITY TO
MEASURES THAT WE ARE JUST DOING
A REPETITIVE PROBLEM. THE OTHER
PROBLEM WITH- ALLOWING PER
DIVERSION HAS POINTED OUT. BY
ASSEMBLYMAN LACKEY. THE VICTIMS
COMP IN THE VICTIMS WHO WAS
KILLED WHAT YEAR IS INJURE.
THEY HAVE A TO FREE- RECOUP
SOME OF THEIR LOSSES AND IF
DIVERT PEOPLE ADAM. THEM IT
EIGHT FROM THE ABILITY. TO INTO
THE COMED. THE OLD. IT IS
VICTOR. THAT IS HARMED BY
ALLOWING THE CUSTOMER. AS WELL
SAFETY ON THE OF CAL. BECOMES
THE CRIME AND I'M OF CRIME
VICTIMS. I WOULD URGE YOU TO
PASS THE- BILL I'VE NOTICED
GOVERNOR NEWSOM THAT IT NEEDED
TO BE A- ONE THE PATH LAST YEAR

DRIVING LAWS. ALCOHOL IMPAIRED
DRIVING CONTINUE TO CONTRIBUTE
TO ABOUT A THIRD OF ALL VEHICLE
CRASH FATALITIES AND DRUG
IMPAIRED DRIVING IS QUICKLY ON
THE RISE. A VERSION PREVENT
GENERALLY LEAD TO DISMISSAL OF
THE CONNECTION AFTER COMPLETION
OF AN EDUCATION OR TREATMENT
PROGRAM AND CAN PREVENT THE
OFFENSE FROM APPEARING ON
OFFENDERS PUBLIC DRIVING RECORD.
RESEARCH SHOWS FIRST LAND
CONVICTIONS ON DRIVING RECORD
OFTEN DO NOT REFLECT FIRST TIME
OCCURRENCES. AND MANY LOCAL

TWO UNLESS AMENDED TO INCLUDE
FIRST OFFENSE MISDEMEANOR THE
WIVES. I'M NOT IN SUPPORT OF
THE Y. DRIVERS I'M NOT IN
SUPPORT OF NOT HOLDING PEOPLE
ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS
WHAT I AM IN SUPPORT OF IS
GIVING WELL DESERVING
INDIVIDUALS A SECOND
OPPORTUNITY FOR. PEOPLE TO GET
THE TREATMENT THAT THEY NEED TO
TURN THEIR LIVES AROUND RIGHT
THE SHIP SO THEY'RE NEVER BACK
BEFORE THE COURT. IF YOU LOOK
AT THE STATISTICS IN TWO
THOUSAND SIXTEEN THERE IS
TWENTY SEVEN THOUSAND. REPEAT
DIY OFFENDERS TWENTY SEVEN
THOUSAND. WE CAN GET THAT
NUMBER TO ZERO OR CLOSE THEIR
TO. IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY WHERE I
PRACTICE WE HAD A TERRIFIC
JUDGE THE LATE HONORABLE ROGER
CROUSE. HE HEADED VETERANS
COURT FOR ABOUT THREE YEARS
THAN HE DID MILITARY MENTAL
HEALTH DIVERSION FOR OVER SIX
YEARS. OVER 90% OF HIS CASELOAD.
WAS THE WIFE ENTERS YOU KNOW
HOW MUCH RECIDIVISM HE HAD OVER
SIX PLUS YEARS ZERO. PERSONALLY
PRACTICING D. Y. DEFENSE AND
DOING DIVERSION FOR DIY
OFFENDERS FOR OVER SIX YEARS
I'VE HAD ZERO RECIDIVISM. AND
PEOPLE PENAL CODE SECTION ONE
THOUSAND ONE NINETY FIVE PASSED
THIS YEAR THERE IS DISPUTE
AMONG COURTS AT FIFTY WISER
ELIGIBLE BUT IN THOSE COUNTIES
THAT THE WHITES HAVE BEEN
ELIGIBLE THERE'S BEEN ZERO
RECIDIVISM AS FAR AS MY
KNOWLEDGE TODAY. DIVERSION
WORKS AND I THINK THERE'S A BIG
MESS PER DAY MISCONCEPTION THIS
IS FOR MISDEMEANOR FENCES NOT
FELONY THE WHY IS NOT
MANSLAUGHTER D. WHY IS THE
RESULT IN DEATH. OR SERIOUS
INJURY THIS IS MISDEMEANOR
FIRST OFFENSE D. WHY IS. WHERE
PEOPLE ARE SUPPORT ADVERSELY
AFFECTED YOU HAVE ONE OUT OF
FOUR OCCUPATIONS THAT REQUIRE
PROFESSIONAL LICENSE THAT'S A
LICENSING BOARD THEY HAVE THAT
THEY GET PUNISHED BY. YOU HAVE.
DACA RECIPIENTS. THAT WILL BE
DEPORTED NO LONGER ELIGIBLE FOR
DACA ON A FIRST OFFENSE. DUI
CONVICTION. YOU HAVE MILITARY
PEOPLE THAT OTHERWISE DON'T
QUALIFY FOR MENTAL HEALTH
DIVERSION THAT WOULD QUALIFY
FOR G. JUDICIAL DIVERSION- THAT
MAY GET KICKED OUT OF THE
MILITARY. AND SO IT GIVES THESE
PEOPLE A SECOND OPPORTUNITY AND
JUDGES ARE GOING TO OPEN THE
FLOODGATES HERE OKAY IT IS
EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO GET
SOMEBODY INTO A DIVERSION
PROGRAM. AND AS THE ATTORNEY
YOU WORK WITH THE COURT WITH
THE PROSECUTOR AND SET UP.
THINGS ABOVE AND BEYOND WHAT
THEY WOULD DO THE OFFENDER
WOULD DO IF THEY WERE CONVICTED
IN COURT. AND THAT'S WHY WE
HAVE ALMOST A QUARTER OF FIRST
OFFENDERS REOFFEND EVERY YEAR.
DIVERSION A FULL LOWER THAT
FREE AND I'VE SEEN IT FIRST
HAND. SO SOMEONE GOES INTO
PLEADS GUILTY YES THEY HAVE TO
DO A FIRST CONVICTION PROGRAM
VICTIM IMPACT PANEL PAY A FINE
THEY'RE ON SUMMARY PROBATION NO
OVERSIGHT WITH THE VERSION
OFFERS UP TO TWO YEARS UNDER
THE THUMB. OF A JUDGE. WHERE
DEFENDANTS ARE COMING BEFORE
THE COURT. EVERY THIRTY TO
NINETY DAYS. WRITING LETTERS ON
SELF REFLECTION. DOING
TREATMENT OR WHATEVER THE COURT
ORDERS APPROPRIATE FOR THAT
INDIVIDUAL CASE. AND IT
PROVIDES CALIFORNIAN
OPPORTUNITY TO BE SAFER. THAT'S
WHAT IT DOES THERE'S AT LEAST
TEN OTHER STATES OFFER SIMILAR
DIVERSION PROGRAMS FOR A FIRST
OFFENSE D. Y. AND THAT'S WHAT
WE'RE ASKING FOR HERE ON A
MISDEMEANOR OFFENSE GIVE HAVE
FAITH IN THE JUDICIARY AS THE
GATEKEEPERS. TO MAKE THAT
DECISION BECAUSE NOT
EVERYBODY'S GOING TO QUALIFY
FOR DIVERSION ALL RIGHT BUT
THOSE THAT DO SHOULD BE GIVEN
THE CHANCE AT REDEMPTION TO
MAKE OUR STATE SAFER TO EDUCATE
THEM SO THEY CAN TURN THEIR
LIVES AROUND. AND I WOULD ASK
FOR A NAY VOTE ON. EIGHTY TWO
EIGHTY TWO. UNLESS AMENDED.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU MISTER
PRICE WE ALSO HAVE ROSE CON
SENIOR STAFF ATTORNEY AT
IMMIGRANT LEGAL RESOURCE CENTER
AND SHE I BELIEVE SHOULD BE
ONLINE MODERATOR. YES AND HERE.
MY NAME IS ROSE CON AND I'M A
SENIOR STAFF ATTORNEY AT THE
IMMIGRANT LEGAL RESOURCE CENTER
RIGHT DIRECTOR WORK AT THE
INTERSECTION OF CRIMINAL ON
IMMIGRATION LAW. WE HAVE BEEN
DEEPLY ENCOURAGED BY THIS
LEGISLATURE CONSISTENT
RECOGNITION OF THE IMPORTANCE
OF EXPANDING OPPORTUNITIES. FOR
CREE CREE DIVERSION
UNDERSTANDING THAT TREATMENT
NOT CAGES ARE ESSENTIAL TO
APPROVING THE CAUSES OF
CRIMINAL CONDUCT. ENDING THE
CYCLE OF HARM AND IMPROVING
PUBLIC SAFETY. THIS CELL WHICH
WOULD LIMIT A JUDGE'S
DISCRETION TO GRANT DIVERSION
IS THE MOVE IN THE WRONG
DIRECTION FOR MANY REASONS. BUT
I CALLING TODAY TO SPEAK
SPECIFICALLY ABOUT THE DAMAGE
THIS BILL WILL COST AND THEN.
THIS ISSUE IS PARTICULARLY
IMPORTANT IN CALIFORNIA WHICH
HOLDS OVER A QUARTER OF THE
COUNTRY IMMIGRANT POPULATION
AND OVER A QUARTER OF THE
COUNTRY DACA APPLICANTS. I
THINK HUNDRED INSIDE
CONVICTIONS ARE TREATED
PARTICULARLY HARSHLY UNDER
FEDERAL IMMIGRATION. FOR
EXAMPLE. DACA IS BARRED THEY
HAVE A SINGLE E. Y. CONVICTION
ON THEIR RECORD SIMILARLY A
LONGTIME GREEN CARD HOLDERS
SEEKING TO OBTAIN U. S.
CITIZENSHIP WILL BE BARRED FROM
DOING SO IF THEY WERE TWICE
CONVICTED OF THE D. Y. WITHIN
THE PAST TEN YEARS. UNDER
CURRENT. DIVERSION PROGRAMS
ALLOW IMMIGRANTS TO ACCESS
NECESSARY TREATMENT WHILE
PROVIDING A MEANINGFUL
OPPORTUNITY TO PRESERVE
ELIGIBILITY FOR SOME FUTURE
FORM OF IMMIGRATION EIGHT. IF
THE CURRENT LAW IS AMENDED SO
THAT INDIVIDUAL CHARGE NOT
CONVICTED YOU Y. OFFENSIVE
CANNOT ACCESS BY VERSION
NONCITIZEN DEFENDANTS WILL HAVE
NO IMPACT IT SHOULD. BE AND
WILL INSTEAD HAVE EVERY
INCENTIVE TO TAKE THEIR CASE TO
TRIAL BY THE CHANCE OF A
DEPLORABLE CONVICTION COSTING
THE STATE MORE MONEY ONE TIME.
RIGHT HOW CAL WITH THE
AUTHORITY TO GRANT BY VERSION A
JUDGE DECLINE TO A DIVERSION
AND OR TO GRANT ALL BASED ON
THEIR INDIVIDUAL ASSESSMENT.
LUXURY THE CASE BY CASE
JUDICIAL ECONOMY THAT IS SO
ESSENTIAL. AND AVOID ADOPTING
HARMFUL BRIGHTLINE PROBATION.
PLEASE VOTE NOW THANK YOU.

AND WE HAVE EXHAUSTED ALL
WITNESSES IN OPPOSITION ON THE
PHONE LINES THANK YOU WILL
BRING BACK TO THE COMMITTEE ANY
QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS BUT IT'S
COMING. RELATES TO. HE TO A TWO.
SENATE SKINNER- I KNOW THE
ASSEMBLY WERE LUCKY LUCKY YOU
CITED A REFERENCE- FROM THE
GOVERNOR AROUND- MAYBE IT WAS A
VETO MESSAGE I'M NOT SURE- NO
NOT AS APPROVAL- IS AN APPROVAL
WHERE OKAY- HOWEVER WE'VE ALSO
GOT COURT CASES THAT INDICATE
WE HAVE TO THAT WE. WHEN WE
MAKE CHANGES TO THE PENAL CODE
INTO CERTAIN ALLOWING FOR
DIVERSION FOR CERTAIN PROGRAMS
THAT WE HAVE TO APPLY IT FAIRLY
AND THAT WE HAVE A- I SHOULD
READ DIRECTLY FROM THE HOUSES
ANYWAY. AND I KNOW THAT WE HAVE
CONFRONTED IN THE PAST
CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE. WE HAVE
MADE EXCLUSIONS THAT WERE THEN
RULED TO BE NOT A FEAR
APPLICATION. AND SO. THERE THAT
ASPECT OF THE- ANALYSIS. MADE A
LOT OF SENSE TO ME BUT IN
ADDITION THOSE WITNESSES WHO
TALKED ABOUT THE ABILITY FOR
THE DIVERSION PROGRAMS TO. NOT
ONLY MONITOR THE PERSON BUT TO
ALSO IN EFFECT BE MORE
PRESCRIPTIVE IN TERMS OF THE-
PROGRAMMING AND OTHER
ACTIVITIES THAT THEY DO TO
ADDRESS THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT
LED. TO THE D. Y. N. IS. WELL
NOT EVERY D. WHY IS SOMEONE WHO
IS AN ALCOHOLIC IS VERY
COMMONLY AND ALCOHOLISM AS WE
KNOW IS NOT SOMETHING THAT FOR
MANY PEOPLE WHO SUFFER FROM
THAT IT IS NOT AN EASY. IT'S AN
EASY THING TO OVERCOME AND SO
WELL I DO NOT WANT. I DO NOT
WANT DRUNK DRIVERS AND I DO NOT
WANT THE CONSEQUENCES OF DRUNK
DRIVERS BUT I THINK THAT WE'VE
SEEN THAT THE DIVERSION
PROGRAMS CAN SOMETIMES RESULT
IN BETTER OUTCOMES. IN TERMS OF
ACTUALLY- REDUCING THE END IN
THE NUMBER OF DRUNK DRIVERS AND
THE INTERESTING THING I FOUND
IS THAT WE HAVE BEEN
INCREASING. A LOT OF OUR
PENALTIES TOWARDS DRUNK DRIVING
WHICH AGAIN IS NOT NECESSARILY
A BAD THING AND YET WE'VE OVER
TWENTY TWO YEARS. ONLY SEEN A
4% DROP. IN IN THE INCIDENCE OF
THE WHITES. I'VE NOT YET SEEN
ANY KIND OF STUDY THAT SHOWS
THAT THE DIVERSIONS ARE LESS
EFFECTVE IN TERMS OF THE
REDUCTION OF THE D. WEISS. AND
THERE IS IT WE OBVIOUSLY NEED
MORE DATA TO FULLY UNDERSTAND
IT BUT THERE'S SOME INDICATION
THAT SOME OF THE DIVERSION
PROGRAMS ARE MORE EFFECTIVE SO
I AM NOT COMFORTABLE WITH THE
BILL IN THE WAY THAT IT'S
STRUCTURED- SO WOULD NOT BE
ABLE TO SUPPORT IT AS AS- AN-
AS WRITTEN TODAY. AT YOU ANY
ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OR
CONCERNS VIA COMMITTEE MEMBERS.
NO. I TO- SOON MARK YOU HAVE
CONCERNS AS IT RELATES TO THE
RIVER DIVERSION SPECIALLY FOR
FIRST TIME OFFENDERS AND
MISDEMEANORS I THINK- FIRST
CALLING FROM BERKELEY. CLEARLY
STATED- THE BENEFITS THAT HAVE
BEEN SHOWN BY OFFERING SUCH
DIVERSION PROGRAMS AND ARE
GIVING PEOPLE OPPORTUNITY TO-
CHANGE REALIZE VERSUS LOSING
THEIR LICENSE OR GOING TO JAIL
AND I THINK WE NEED TO HAVE
THE- FLEXIBILITY THAT HAS BEEN
IN EXISTENCE FOR QUITE SOME
TIME- FOR THE FOR THE
MISDEMEANOR FIRST ON FENCES SO.
I TO HAVE CHALLENGES SO WE
OFFERED UP SOME AMENDMENTS IT'S
MY UNDERSTANDING THAT YOU'RE
NOT TAKING THE MOMENTS ARE NOT
CORRECT YOU ARE CORRECT. OKAY
ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT SO THAT
THE TO CLOSE YEAH WITHOUT.
OPPORTUNITY CLOSE YOU MAY CLOSE.
FIRST OF ALL- I WANT TO TAKE A
THE COMMITTEE WITH OLDER SOME
HARSH DISAGREEMENT THAT'S A
VERY IMPORTANT TOPIC. THAT
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT PEOPLE'S
LIVES. AND WHETHER YOU ACCEPT
OR REJECT THE FACT THAT THE
ALLIES ARE AS DANGEROUS AS I
CLAIM THEY ARE. DOESN'T CHANGE
THE FACT THAT THERE WILL BE
LIVES LOST EVEN TODAY AS WE
SPEAK BECAUSE OF AN IMPAIRED
DRIVER. SPEAKING OF SENATOR
SKINNER TO YOUR POINT. I WOULD
SUBMIT TO YOU THAT AWARENESS OF
THE PROBLEM IS THIS PART OF THE
IMPORTANT REMEDY TO TAKE CARE
OF THE PROBLEM AND TO ADDRESS
APPROPRIATELY NO MATTER WHAT
LEGISLATION WE PASSED HERE
THERE WILL ALWAYS BE IMPAIRED
DRIVING BY THE VERY NATURE OF
ALCOHOL. THE GOAL IS TO LIMIT
THOSE THOSE TRAGEDIES. AND I
BELIEVE THIS BILL WILL CLEARLY.
DO THAT AND THE REASON WHY WILL
DO IT IS BECAUSE IT WILL. EIGHT
AWARENESS DIVERSION DIMINISHES
AWARENESS OF THIS PROBLEM
BECAUSE IT RACES AT- AND THAT
THE AMENDMENT FIRST OF ALL THE
FIRST TIME CONVICTION IS JUST
AS DANGEROUS AS THE SECOND OR
THIRD. AND I WOULD SAY THAT-
IT'S TRAGIC IT'S ABSOLUTELY
TRAGIC THE SERIOUSNESS OF DIY
AND I KNOW THAT BECAUSE MANY OF
US HAVE FRIENDS WHO PROBABLY.
BY LATE THIS LAW AND THEY'VE
NEVER HAD THERE BEEN ANY KIND
OF NEGATIVE ENCOUNTER. BUT I
PROMISE YOU IT'S LIKE. A
RUSSIAN ROULETTE EVENTUALLY THE
BULLETS GOING TO SHOW UP. AT
IT'S VERY TRAGIC WHEN IT DOES
NOT WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I
COME FROM A PLACE OF NOT.
GETTING ANY INCITEMENT ABOUT.
TAKEN SOMEBODY INTO CUSTODY
IT'S A COMPASSIONATE MOVE
BECAUSE I WILL TELL YOU. THE
NUMBER OF THOSE DO YOU AYE
TRAGEDIES OFTEN WERE SOLO
COLLISIONS. SO GUESS WHO THE
VICTIM WAS WAS ALSO THE
PERPETRATOR OF THE PROBLEM. AND
SO WE'RE TRYING TO GO OUT AND
GET TO THE NATURE OF THE
PROBLEM WHICH IS AWARENESS. AND
WE DIMINISH AWARENESS WE DID
MANAGE OUR ABILITY TO ADDRESS.
THIS PROBLEM FOR WHAT IT TRULY
TRULY IS NOT A TRAGIC TRAGIC
SET OF CIRCUMSTANCES THAT- I
MEAN IT'S LIKE SHOOTING A
WEAPON INTO A GATHERING OF
PEOPLE AND HOPE THAT THE BALL
IT DOESN'T HIT. THAT'S EXACTLY
WHAT YOU'RE DEALING WITH FOLKS
AND I'M TRYING TO BRING REMEDY
TO THIS PROBLEM AND I HOPE I
GET YOUR SUPPORT. THANK YOU.
ALL RIGHT WE'RE SEEKING A
MOTION ON. AB TWO EIGHT TWO THE
MOVED IT IS BEEN MOVED BY
SENATOR REPORT THE TROUBLE-
THERE IS A- TO PASS TO

ALLOWING ME TO PRESENT ASSEMBLY
BILL FOUR NINETY MY NAME TO THE
ANGELO KITTLES LOFT TO THOUSAND
TWENTY ONE WHICH SEEKS TO BAN
LAW ENFORCEMENT FROM USING.
RESTRAINTS. THE CALLS
POSITIONAL ASPHYXIA. POSITIONAL
ASPHYXIA IS A DEADLY CONDITION.
THAT CAN OCCUR WHEN A PERSON IS
RESTRAINED AND CANNOT BREED.
AFTER THE DEATH OF GEORGE FLOOR
LAST YEAR I AUTHORED LANDMARK
LEGISLATION ASSEMBLY BILL
ELEVEN NINETY SIX TO BANLAW
ENFORCEMENT FROM USING CHILL
CALLS. THE OFFICER WHO KNEELED
ON FLOYD'S NECK DID SO FOR MORE
THAN NINE MINUTES. AND TWENTY
EIGHT SECONDS. UNTIL HIS BODY
LAID LIFELESS. BUT ALSO IN
DECEMBER. BUT LAST YEAR AND
LOOKING TO. BY UNITED STATES
NAVY MEANT FROM NORTHERN
CALIFORNIA. WHAT'S ALSO
TRAGICALLY KILLED AT THE HANDS
OF POLICE. ANGELO HAD BEEN
SUFFERING FROM A MENTAL HEALTH
EPISODE. WITH HIS FAMILY CALLED
THE POLICE FOR HELP. IN ORDER
TO DE ESCALATE THE SITUATION
THAT WAS TAKING PLACE AT HOME.
WELL ANGELO LAID FACE DOWN.
BLOODY HANDCUFFS BEHIND HIS
BACK. RESPONDING OFFICERS MEALS
ON ANGELO'S NECK. NEARLY FIVE
MINUTES. ANGELO SAID PLEASE
DON'T KILL ME. PLEASE DON'T
KILL ME. CASUAL LOS.
CONSCIOUSNESS. AND DIED FOUR

PLEASE DON'T KILL ME. THIS IS
NOT ABOUT BLANKS. IT'S NOT
ABOUT TWO WEEKS. IT'S NOT ABOUT
SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS THIS. THIS
IS ABOUT LIVES. THERE ARE BEING
TAKEN AWAY OPPOSITION OF THIS
BILL CONTINUES TO STATE THAT
THIS BILL REMOVES AN OFFICER'S
ABILITY. AND I WANT TO QUOTE.
FROM ONCE. RESTRAINING BUT
INDIVIDUAL LET ME SIMPLY SAY
THAT'S NOT TRUE. YOU CAN STILL
RESTRAIN AN INDIVIDUAL WHAT
THIS BILL DOES IT SAYS YOU
CANNOT CUT SOMEONE'S ABILITY TO
BRIEF. NO ONE SHOULD HAVE THAT
TAKEN AWAY FROM THEM WHILE IN
CUSTODY. IT STATES THAT NGUYEN
PRESSURE OR BODY WEIGHT IS
BEING PLACED ON SOMEONE AND
UNDER REASONABLE POSITION. IT
CUTS OFF SOME OF THE BILITY TO
BRIEF. THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED AND
LOOKING SO. THAT'S WHAT
HAPPENED TO GEORGE FLOORED LET
ME BE CLEAR THIS MEANS THAT YOU
CAN NOT YOU CAN NO LONGER. JEFF
CUT OFF SOMEONE'S EAR WAY
WITHOUT CARING. FOR THEM YOU
CANNOT CUT SOMEONE'S ABILITY TO
BREED OFF YOU CAN STILL ARREST
HIM YOU CAN STILL DETAINED THEM.
BUT NOT CUT SOMEONE'S ABILITY
TO BREATHE AB FOUR NINETY THE
COMMONSENSE POLICY. THAT IS
NEEDED NOW TO CLOSE A LEGAL
LOOPHOLE IN CURRENT LAW USING.
THE USE OF FORCE THAT HAS BEEN
DEMONSTRATED TIME AND TIME
AGAIN. IT WILL PLACE A LIMIT ON
RESTRAINTS USED BY LAW
ENFORCEMENT TO ENSURE THAT
THESE RESTRAINTS DO NOT TURN TO
BE UNNECESSARILY DANGEROUS AND
DEADLY. WITH ME TO PROVIDE

QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS HERE ARE
REGARDING AB FOR NINETY CENTER
SKINNER. I WILL MOVE THE BILL
HI- THANK YOU HAVE A NUMBER OF
FRIENDS WHO ARE VERY CLOSE TO
THE- KING TO A FAMILY AND WAS
MADE AWARE OF THIS INCIDENT
WITHIN A FEW DAYS OF ITS
OCCURRENCE- AND IT WAS TRULY
HORRIFIC I MEAN THAT. THE ME
BEFORE I SAY MORE. THIS BILL IS
NEEDED INDEPENDENT OF THE
HORRIBLE TRAGEDY THAT THE KING
TO FAMILY FACED I AGREE AND THE
BILL IS NEEDED BECAUSE SUCH A
RESTRAINT. CAN KILL PEOPLE AND
IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE AS WAS
DESCRIBED IN BY THE AUTHOR AND
THE WITNESSES. IT WAS A MENTAL
HEALTH CALL. AND THE FAMILY WAS.
I DIDN'T KNOW QUITE WHAT TO DO
WITH THE THEIR FAMILY MEMBER
WHO WAS HAVING A MENTAL HEALTH
CRISIS BUT BY THE TIME THE
OFFICERS ARRIVED THE FAMILY
MEMBER HAD. IT MORE OR LESS
CALM DOWN. AND- WAS NOT ARMED
AS WAS DESCRIBED AND YET WAS
PUT IN A HOLD. THAT TEN BECAUSE
THIS CONSEQUENCE WHERE I DID
THIS FAMILY NO LONGER HAS THEIR
LOVED ONES SO THEY DID WHAT
THEY THOUGHT WAS RIGHT AND YET
THEN THIS OCCURS SO. I'M SURE
THE OFFICERS DID NOT INTEND TO
KILL. ANGELO CANTO AND YET THE
HOLD THAT THE USED BECAUSE THAT
SO. WE HOPE THERE'S NOT
APPROPRIATE TIME TO USE SUCH A
HOLD THAT'S WHAT WE'RE LEARNING
THAT'S WE'RE BEGINNING TO
UNDERSTAND THERE'S NOT AN
APPROPRIATE TIME TO USE THAT TO
HOLD IT IS TO LEGAL. AND SO I
THINK THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT
BILL I REALLY- MY DEEPEST
CONDOLENCES TO THE FAMILY BUT
TO ANY. ANY FAMILIES WHO HAVE.
FIVE REGARDLESS OF THE
CIRCUMSTANCE HAD THE
CONSEQUENCE OF SUCH A HOLD
BECAUSE A PATH TO THEIR FAMILY
MEMBER- SO APPRECIATE DIFFERENT
BILL BEING BROUGHT AND- OF IT.
THANK YOU THANK YOU CENTER
SKINNER I TO THINK THE AUTHOR
FOR BRINGING FORTH WHAT IS
USUALLY CONSIDERED COMMONSENSE
MEASURES- WE'VE LEARNED FROM
EXAMPLE AFTER EXAMPLE THAT SUCH
RESTRAINT AREN'T NECESSARY
STRUCTURE THEN YOU KNOW SOMEONE
WHO IS NOT ARMED NONVIOLENT
HAVING A- MENTAL ISSUE THAT
REQUIRES. SOMETHING LESS THAN-
DEADLY FORCE TO- CONTROL FOUR
INTERVENE AT AT THAT SITUATION
AND I THINK IT'S CLEARLY
ANOTHER THIS- EXAMPLE OF THE
LACK OF. REVERENCE FOR LIFE
WHEN IT COMES TO. THE POOR AND
BLACK AND BROWN COMMUNITIES
BECAUSE AGAIN A LOT OF- MORE
FEDERATION CONSTRAINT ISSUES
BEFORE APPLYING THESE THESE
TECHNIQUES AND MORE- FLUENT
COMMUNITY SO I THINK IT'S
CLEARLY- NOT ONE OF TRAIN MANY
PEOPLE ALWAYS WANT TO THROW IT
BACK TO TRAINING BUT- THEY SEEM
TO GET IT RIGHT IN THE RIGHT
COMMUNITIES BUT WHEN YOU'RE-
ARE YOU SEE IN A POOR MINORITY
COMMUNITY WITH THE SEEM TO
RESPOND WITH SUCH ACTIONS SUCH
AS THESE SO I THINK WE'VE SEEN
ENOUGH EXAMPLES FROM THEIR
GARDENS OF THE WORLD TO. THE
GEORGE FOR ITS TO MISTER KING
TO HEAR SO ARE A TOTALLY
SUPPORT. WHAT YOU'RE DOING HERE
AND I THINK YOU AN INCH. IF
YOU'RE ARE PREPARED TO MAKE
CALLS THANK YOU VERY MUCH-
MISTER CHAIRMAN AND TO SENATORS
FOR YOUR KIND COMMENTS WE
REALLY PREACH I WANT TO THANK.
BECAUSE IT TAKES A VERY STRONG
CURRENTS- FOR THE MOTHER OF
ANGELO TO TESTIFY- AND THE
SISTER WHO ACTUALLY MADE THE
CALL- TO LAW ENFORCEMENT TO TRY
TO DE ESCALATE THE SITUATION.
ONE THANK HER ENOUGH AND THEN
ALSO THE DOT THE FATHER-
CALIFORNIA PACKAGES THOSE ARE
ALL THAT WHO HAS CALLED IN IN
SUPPORT OF THIS BILL. MY
COMMITMENT IS TO GET THIS BILL

ALSO TELLS. HIS STORY THUS MY
COMMITMENT TO- THE FAMILY-
AGAIN PLACING- A KNEE ON THE

PERPETRATORS HAVE BEEN
CONVICTED OF STALKING THEIR
CRIMINAL PENALTIES FOR
PERPETRATORS TO CONTACT A TRIP
SURVIVOR DIRECTLY BY TELEPHONE
OR USING PHYSICAL MAIL IN
VIOLATION OF PROTECTIVE ORDER.
HOWEVER THE REALITY OF OUR
MODERN WORLD IS THAT IT'S
INCREASINGLY LIKELY FOR
STOCKING TO OCCUR OVER SOCIAL
MEDIA AND THE INTERNET.
UNFORTUNATELY UNDER CURRENT LAW
CONVICTED STALKER MAY GO
UNPUNISHED FOR CONTACTING A
SURVIVOR USING SOCIAL MEDIA OR

THAT MILLION UPDATES EXISTING
LAW TO REFLECT CHANGES IN THE
WAY PEOPLE COMMUNICATE AND WITH

OVERFLOW. OKAY MODERATOR WE

I THINK. I'M NOT THE FORMAL
CARE I COULD MOVE THE BILL

MODERATING NOW SO I HAVE TO
WAIT SO WE CAN DESTROY MOTION.
WHICH AGAIN WE CAN DO. WHEN
PEOPLE COME BACK OKAY. I
BELIEVE YOU'RE PRESENTING A
SECOND BILL. HEY I AM AB WHAT
WE'LL DO IS JUST OKAY HOLD ON
THE MOTION FOR THIS ONE. AND
ALLOW YOU 2% THE SECOND OKAY
THANK YOU. AB NINE THIRTY NINE-
AGAIN THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME
TO PRESENT- ON BEHALF OF THE
ASSEMBLY WOMAN SAID ABOUT THIS.
EVERY YEAR WE DRESSED IN JEANS
TO PROTEST AN ITALIAN SUPREME
COURT CASE WHICH HELD THAT THE
SURVIVORS CLOTHING COULD BE
USED AS EVIDENCE OF CONSENT IN
A SEXUAL ASSAULT CASE. YET
DESPITE A POP PROCLAMATIONS TO
THE CONTRARY ARE EVIDENCE CODE
LEAVES THE DOOR OPEN TO
CONTINUE TO VICTIM BLAME IN A
POLL THAT AN OUTFIT CAN GIVE
CONSENT. UNDER CURRENT LAW
SURVIVORS MANNER OF DRESS CAN
BE ADMITTED AS EVIDENCE OF
CONSENT IN A CASE INVOLVING
SEXUAL ASSAULT IF IT IS IN THE
INTEREST OF JUSTICE. THIS MEANS
THAT THE JUDGE OUTSIDE THE
PRESENCE OF THE JURY MAKE A
RULING ABOUT WHETHER TO ADMIT
THE EVIDENCE. THE LEGISLATURE
HAS ALREADY MADE A DECISION TO
EXCLUDE SOME FORMS OF EVENTS
FROM BEING CONSIDERED AS
EVIDENCE OF CONSENT INCLUDING
DATING OR MARITAL RELATIONSHIP
OR REQUEST OF THE PERPETRATOR
HE'S A CONDOM OR BIRTH CONTROL
DEVICE. SEXUAL ASSAULT IS THE
MOST UNDER REPORTED AND UNDER
PROSECUTED TYPE OF CRIME WE
MUST MAKE SURE THE SURVIVORS
ARE NOT RE VICTIMIZED AND RE
TRAUMATIZED BY OUR JUSTICE
SYSTEM. CONTINUING TO ALLOW THE
MANNER OF DRESS AS EVIDENCE FOR
CONSENT IMPLIES A VICTIM'S
PROVOKED THEIR OWN SEXUAL
ASSAULT. IF OUR STATE LAW
MAINTAINS THESE HARMFUL
POLICIES IT IS ENABLING
VIOLENCE SILENCING SURVIVORS
REDUCING ACCESS TO JUSTICE FOR
SURVIVORS OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE.
EIGHTY NINE THIRTY NINE FOR
FILLS THE PREMISE OF DENIM DAY
HERE IN CALIFORNIA. BY MAKING
IT CLEAR THEY HAD A SURVIVOR'S
MANNER OF DRESS CAN NEVER BE
USED AS EVIDENCE OF CONSENT TO
SEXUAL ASSAULT CASE BUT FLORIDA
NEW HAMPSHIRE HAVE ALREADY
ENACTED LEGISLATION SIMILAR. TO
THIS BILL- WE WILL. GO TO THE
TESTIMONY AND HOPEFULLY

MY NAME IS MEGAN WARNER AND I
LOOK CANDIDATE SEXUAL AT
STANFORD BONTA RESURGENCE OF
WITH THE CENTER INSTITUTIONAL
COURAGE RESEARCH CENTER SEEKS
TO UNDERSTAND WHERE OUR
INSTITUTION CAN FACILITATE
JUSTICE. URGENTLY INSTITUTIONAL
BETRAYAL NOT COURAGE IT'S FAR
MORE COMMON. GOOD NUTRITIONAL
BETRAYAL CCURS WHEN AN
INSTITUTION HARM SOMEONE WHO
DEPEND ON IT SOMETIMES WORKING
POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS SYMPTOMS.
BUT SOME REPORTS THEIR
EXPERIENCE WITH SEXUAL VIOLENCE
TO AUTHORITIES THEY PLACE THEIR
TRUST IN INSTITUTIONS THAT TOO
OFTEN FAIL THEM. FOR EXAMPLE
PLEASE MAKE BELT UNDERGO A
THOROUGH INVESTIGATION BASED ON
THEIR INTERPRETATION OF THE
SURVIVORS CREDIBILITY USING A
NARAL AND OUTDATED
UNDERSTANDING OF SEXUAL
VIOLENCE. VERY FEW SURVIVORS
WHO CASES GO TO TRIAL MAY BE
SUBJECT TO UNNECESSARY AND
HARMFUL QUESTIONING BASED ON
OUTDATED BELIEFS ABOUT SEXUAL
VIOLENCE. ONE SUCH BELIEVE
INCLUDES THE IDEA THAT THE WAY
SOMEONE IS DRESSED IS RELEVANT
TO DETERMINING WHETHER THEY
HAVE BEEN VICTIMIZED. THIS IDEA
THAT SOMEHOW SURVIVORS WERE
ASKING FOR IT WITH THEIR
CLOTHING CONTRIBUTE TO HELP
PLANE. MUCH RESEARCH FINDS THAT
SURVIVORS BLAME THEMSELVES FOR
THE ASSAULT BECAUSE OF WHAT
THEY WERE DRINKING WHO THEY
WERE WITH WHAT THEY WERE
WEARING TO NAME A FEW. DON'T
BLAME CONTRIBUTE TO GREATER
ISOLATION AND PSYCHOLOGICAL
DISTRESS VIOLENT. PEOPLE WHO
BLAME THEMSELVES ARE PULLING ON
COMMON CULTURAL SCRIPT ABOUT
SEXUAL VIOLENCE THAT OUR
INSTITUTIONS REINFORCED. EXCUSE
PERPETRATORS AND GOING BACK
DOWN FOR THE VIOLENCE. WHEN THE
COURT IS VICTIMS TIRE IT
CONTRIBUTES TO THE IDEA BACK
HELP HOMEOWNERS TRUST COULD BE
EVIDENCE. THAT EVEN CONSIDERING
WHETHER THEY'RE AT HIGHER IS
QUOTE IN THE INTEREST OF JOBS
THAT. INVOLVE UNNECESSARY AND
HARMFUL QUESTIONING OF THE
VICTIM. ALSO MISTRUST IF NOT
BECAUSE OF THE FAULT AND IT'S
TIME TO ALIGN OUR LAWS WITH OUR
STATED GOAL OF SUPPORTING
SURVIVORS. THANK YOU FOR
LETTING ME SPEAK IN FAVOR OF AB

TESTIMONY AT THE STOCK. THIS IS
LESLIE I'M PREPARED THANK YOU
YOU HAVE A MINUTE AND A HALF
THANK YOU. THERE THANK YOU
CHAIR AND MEMBERS LESLIE
CALDWELL HOUSTON FOR THE
CALIFORNIA PUBLIC DEFENDERS
ASSOCIATION UNFORTUNATELY IT
DOES SOUND LIKE THE PRIMARY
SUPPORT WITNESSES DON'T
UNDERSTAND EXISTING LAW AB NINE
THREE NINE IS UNNECESSARY AS
APPLEGATE'S JUDICIAL DISCRETION
AND WOULD PREVENT A FAIR TRIAL
TO BOTH PROS PROSECUTION AND
DEFENSE UNDER EXISTING LAW.
EVIDENCE CODE SECTION. ELEVEN
OH THREE SEVEN THREE SEVEN TWO-
EVIDENCE OF THAT THE MANNER OF
DRESS IS INADMISSIBLE UNLESS
THE JUDGE FINDS THAT IT IS
RELEVANT AND IN THE INTEREST OF
JUSTICE OUTSIDE THE PRESENCE OF
THE JURY THE JUDGE IS LISTENING
TO BOTH PARTIES AS TO WHAT THE
EVIDENCE IS. WHETHER IT'S AN
DETERMINES WHETHER IT'S
RELEVANT AND WHY IT'S NECESSARY
TO ADMIT. THE JUDGE DECIDE
STATING THEIR REASONS FOR THE
RECORD. THIS IS A FAIR AND
BALANCED PROCESS. THAT'S AB
NINE THREE NINE IS NOT
NECESSARY AB NINE THREE NINE AB
AGAINST YOUR GEAR SO THIS
QUESTION AND THE FUNDAMENTALLY
UNFAIR CALIFORNIA JUDGES UNDER
THE LAW WAVY OF THE DAM BALANCE
THE COMPETING RIGHTS OF THE
ALLEGED VICTIM AND THE
DEFENDANT. OF PUBLIC DEFENDERS
WE REPRESENTED MAN ACCUSED OF
RAPE WHO REFUSED TO PAY IS THE
GRADE AFTER THE FACT ONLY TWO
DAYS. GREAT CHARGES RATHER THAN
THEFT OF SERVICES. AND THAT IN
A- SEX WORK SITUATION LIKE TO
GIVE AN EXAMPLE- YEAH NAKED
WOMEN CAN BE GREAT HOWEVER I
HAVE A CASE WHERE. THE
COMPLAINING WITNESS WAS WEARING
ONLY HIGH HEELS AND A G. STRING
WALKING DOWN THE STREET KNOWN
FOR SEX WORK ON MANY OCCASIONS.
MY CLIENT WAS. CHARGED WITH
RAPE AFTER REFUSING TO PAY IN
DRUGS I WANTED TO PAY CASH
INSTEAD. THE COMPLAINING
WITNESS DEFINE DOES GIVE-
DENIED. RESTITUTION MARC UNDER
THESE AND MANY OTHER
CIRCUMSTANCES A JUDICIAL
DETERMINATION THAT THE EVIDENCE
OF HOW A VICTIM WAS DRESSED
MIGHT BE ESSENTIAL FOR A FAIR
AND JUST TRIAL. BONTA MEDICALLY
EXCLUDING SUCH EVIDENCE COULD
DEPRIVE THE DEFENDANT OF THE
CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO
CONFRONT AND CROSS EXAMINE FOR
THOSE REASONS WE RESPECTFULLY
REQUEST YOUR NO VOTE THANK YOU.
THANK YOU NOT TO THIS. GOOD
AFTERNOON KATHY SURFER ACLU
CALIFORNIA ACTION WE
RESPECTFULLY NOT SUPPOSED AB
NINE THIRTY NINE I WANT TO BE
VERY CLEAR ABOUT WHAT THIS BILL
DOES IT EXPRESSLY EXCLUDES IN
EVERY CASE EVIDENCE THAT IS
FOUND TO BE RELEVANT AND IN THE
INTEREST OF JUSTICE. AT LEAST
CALDWELL HAS ALREADY DESCRIBED
EXISTING LAW STRIKES A BALANCE
BETWEEN ENSURING THAT THE
SURVIVORS OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE
ARE NOT BLAMED FOR THE CRIMES
AGAINST THEM WHILE ALLOWING
THOSE ACCUSED OF THE CRIME. YOU
ARE INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN
GUILTY TO SEEK TO HAVE EVIDENCE
OF MANNER OF DRESS CONSIDERED
IN THOSE RARE CASES WHERE IT IS
NECESSARY FOR JUSTICE PREVAIL.
IT IS RARE FOR EITHER SIDE TO
SEEK ADMISSION FOR THIS TYPE OF
EVIDENCE AND RARER STILL FOR IT
TO BE ADMITTED. WHERE JUSTICE
DEMANDS THAT THE EVIDENCE
SHOULD BE ADMITTED OUR SYSTEM
OF JUSTICE SHOULD ALLOW THE
JUDGE TO MAKE THAT CALL. WE
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR NOBLE.
THANK YOU. NOW WILL BRING HIM
BACK TO ROOM FORTY TWO OR THREE
ARE THERE WITNESSES HERE IN
OPPOSITION TO. AB NINE THREE
NINE. SHE NINE WILL GO TO OUR
OVERFLOW ROOM AND THERE'S NO
ONE THERE AS WELL MODERATOR
WE'LL GO TO OUR PHONE LINE TO
SEE IF THERE ARE WITNESSES IN
OPPOSITION TO AB. NINE THREE
NINE. YOU LIKE TO COME IN
OPPOSITION OF AB NINE THREE
NINE. PRESS ONE ZERO. FIRST
WE'LL GO TO LINE THREE SEVENTY
TWO PLEASE GO AHEAD. CANACCORD
ARMAND THE HALF OF THE SAN
FRANCISCO PUBLIC DEFENDER IN
OPPOSITION. I HAVE ONE MORE
JUST A MOMENT. SHE. MEXICO TO
LINE THREE SIXTY NINE PLEASE GO
AHEAD. DOES YOUR DEBATE ON
BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA
ATTORNEYS FOR CRIMINAL JUSTICE
IN STRONG OPPOSITION. THIS TIME
THERE'S NO ONE ELSE THANK YOU.
THANK YOU- NOW LET'S BRING IT
BACK TO THE COMMITTEE OTHER
QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS AS A
RELIGIOUS AB NINE THREE NINE.
SENATOR GRAHAM WATER THANK YOU
MISTER CHAIR I WAS JUST
WONDERING IS MISS ASSEMBLY
MEMBER GONZALEZ I GUESS AND- IN
LIEU OF THE AUTHOR CAN SPEAK TO
THE CONCERNS RAISED BY THE
OPPOSITION. SO I ACTUALLY THINK
THAT THE PUBLIC DEFENDER. DROVE
IT HOME- IT DOES NOT MATTER IF
A WOMAN IS WALKING DOWN THE
STREET IN A G. STRING AND HIGH
HEELS WITH A T. SHIRT THAT SAYS
PLEASE RATE ME. THAT IS NOT
EVIDENCE OF CONSENT. AND SO
THERE IS NO SITUATION THAT I
WOULD CHALLENGE ANYONE TO COME
UP WITH WHERE WHAT SOMEBODY IS
WEARING IS EVIDENCE OF CONSENT
IT IS TIME TO TAKE THAT OUT OF.
THE DISCUSSION IT IS A BARRIER
TO A WOMAN IF SHE FEELS LIKE
SHE'S GOING TO BE BLAMED OR
THAT THAT IS GOING TO COME UP
EVEN OUTSIDE OF THE JURY IS A
BARRIER TO IT TO HER. OR HIM
ASSERTING THE RIGHTS. AND SO I
YOU KNOW QUITE FRANKLY I CAN'T
BELIEVE IN THIS DAY AND AGE WE
HAVE THIS DISCUSSION IT IS A
SUGGESTS THAT YOU KNOW BECAUSE
SOMEBODY IT'S EVIDENCE OF BEING
A SEX WORKER I. I CAN'T EVEN
WRAP MY ARMS AROUND WHAT WAS
JUST SAT. IN IT SHOWS EXACTLY
WHY WE NEED THIS PROHIBITION.
NO MAN OR WOMAN. SHOULD BE
SHAMED FOR WHAT THEY WORE AND
THAT SHOULD NOT BE EVER
RELEVANT AS A MATTER OF CONSENT
IN A SEXUAL ASSAULT CASES. SO
MY FELLOW QUESTION IS THIS-
THIS IS ONLY PERTAIN TO- RAPE
CRIMES AND CRIMES OF SEXUAL
ASSAULT OR EXISTS FOR ALL
CRIMINAL ACTIVITY. AT TWO
SEXUAL ASSAULT CASES SEX CRIMES.
YOU IN CRIMINAL CASES INVOLVING
SEXUAL ASSAULT- THE MICHIGAN
WHICH OF COURSE. NOT A QUESTION
PER SE BUT I YOU KNOW I HAVE
BEEN STRUGGLING WITH WHETHER
THIS REALLY DOES REDUCE
JUDICIAL DISCRETION AND IT'S A
BIT DIFFERENT THAN SOME OF THE
OTHER BILLS WE HAVE WHERE WE
LITERALLY TAKE AWAY JUDICIAL
DISCRETION AND WE JUST SAY. THE
JUDGE MUST IF THEY DEFINE TEXAS
CRIME THE MOST SENSITIVE
CERTAIN WAY. AND I THINK THIS
IS A BIT DIFFERENT I DO
APPRECIATE. THE OPPOSITION'S
CONCERNED THAT IT'S TAKING AWAY
SOME FACTORS THE JUDGE MIGHT BE
ABLE TO USE HOWEVER WE KNOW
JUDGES LIKE ALL OF US HAVE
DIFFERENT BIASES. AND IT IS NOT
UNCOMMON TO HAVE A BIAS THAT.
THE PERSON IN QUESTIONS DRESS
SOMEHOW PLAYED A FACTOR IN THIS
CIRCUMSTANCE THE CRIME AND SO.
AND I APPRECIATE THE
EXPLANATION BY THE PRESENTER
THAT YOU KNOW THAT REALLY
CANNOT MATTER AND I GUESS.
WHILE I APPRECIATE THE
CIRCUMSTANCE THE PUBLIC
DEFENDER FACED WHEN DESCRIBING
THAT CLIENT I THINK THE MORE
RELEVANT WAS TO BE ABLE TO
PROVE THAT THAT CLIENT. I WAS
ACTUALLY ENGAGED IN A. FIVE IN
A TRANSACTION WHERE THEN THE
CHANGE B. B. R. DEMAND WAS
CHANGED AS TO THE PAYMENT ON
THE TRANSACTION- AND SO NOT
KNOWING ENOUGH ABOUT THAT CASE
I CAN'T IN ANY WAY SPEAK TO WHY
OR WHY NOT IT WAS UNABLE TO BE
DEFENDED AS A NON RATE. HOWEVER
I THINK THAT AGAIN D. D. YOU
KNOW THERE CAN BE SEX WORKERS
WHO ARE NOT DRESSED IN A
PROVOCATIVE MANNER SO IT
SEEMED- AGAIN I CAN'T YOU KNOW
USING EXAMPLE PROBABLY. IT WAS
IT IT DOESN'T NECESSARILY ADD
CLARITY TO US IN TRYING TO
FIGURE THIS OUT BECAUSE IT VERY
WELL COULD BE THE CASE THAT
THAT PARTICULAR SEX WORKER- WAS
NOT RAPED AND SO THE PERSON
THAT THE PUBLIC DEFENDER WAS
DEFENDING YOU KNOW MAY NOT HAVE
BEEN. GUILTY OF RAPE EVER THAT
PARTICULAR YEAH I DESCRIPTION
OF JUST THE CLONING SHOULD NOT
REALLY BE A FACTOR SO. I THINK
ABOUT THE WAYS THAT WE ARE
TRYING TO CORRECT FOR THE
VARIOUS BIASES THAT WE KNOW
EXIST RACIAL BIAS SEES THESE
GENDER BIAS SEES. AND SO. IT
DID. YOU KNOW THIS ONE IS- IT
COULD BE A GRAY AREA THOUGH I
WOULD TRY HERE ON SAYING IT
SHOULDN'T BE A FACTOR SO I'LL I
THINK I MEAN I'M GOING TO BE
SUPPORTING THE BILL. THERE COME
UNDER. HE I APPRECIATE NINE
SENATOR SKINNER'S- COMMENTS YOU
KNOW I'VE ACTUALLY BEEN
THINKING ABOUT. CASES THAT ARE
NOT SO CUT AND DRY WHERE
SOMEONE WAS WALKING DOWN THE
STREET AND THEN YOU KNOW. THE
DEFENDANT YOU KNOW. KNOCK
SOMEBODY IN THE HEAD AND
SEXUALLY ASSAULTS THEM VERY
RARELY ARE THE CASES THAT- THE
SIMPLE. I'M WONDERING ABOUT
CASES WHERE- THE- VICTIM WORD
IS ALSO PART OF IT WERE ENGAGED
IN CRIMINAL ACTIVITY AND WHERE
THE MANNER OF THEIR DRESS OR
WHAT THEY ARE WEARING- IT PLAYS
A ROLE IN EITHER. WEAPONS THAT
THEY MAY HAVE OR THAT ARE BEING
CONDEMNING THERE LIKE ALL OF
THESE OTHER THINGS AND I'M JUST
THINKING BACK TO THE NUMBER OF
CASES AND CIRCUMSTANCES THAT I
HAVE HEARD ABOUT AND OFTEN
TIMES AND I THINK THAT THE
PUBLIC DEFENDERS DO A
DISSERVICE WHEN THEY COME
BECAUSE THEY KIND OF SHARE VERY
ON SIMPLE EXAMPLES- BUT OFTEN
TIMES. THE NOT HOW PROVOCATIVE
SOMEONE IS DRESSED BUT HOW THEY
pARE DRESSED BUT MAYBE WHAT THEY
ARE WEARING MAY PLAY A ROLE IN
SOMETHING THAT THEY'RE
CONCEALING MAYBE SOMETHING THAT
SOME WEAPON THAT THEY'RE GOING
TO USE AND THAT DOES BECOME
PART OF EVIDENCE AND THAT DOES
BECOME PART OF- WHAT IS
REVEALED. AND SHARED EITHER YOU
KNOW DURING TRIAL OR OR WITH
CHARGES AND SO MY CONCERN IS
THAT NGUYEN SOMETHING WHEN
CLOTHING IS RELEVANT. TO THE
CASE IN THAT WAY DOES THIS MAKE
THAT INADMISSIBLE SO IT'S NOT
SO MUCH THAT SOMEONE WAS
PROVOCATIVELY DRESSED BUT YOU
KNOW THE- YOU KNOW THE RAZOR
BLADE OR WHATEVER. WHAT IS THE
AND- YOU KNOW- SO THAT'S MY CAN
AND I WANT TO AND I'M DON'T
KNOW IF THIS ADDRESSES THOSE
KINDS OF SCENARIOS. SO THAT WAS
WHY I ACTUALLY ASKED M
ORIGINAL QUESTION BECAUSE I'M
TRYING TO GET AT IF THIS
PREVENT CERTAIN EVIDENCE- FROM
BEING ADMISSIBLE. SENATOR IF I
MAY. THROUGH THE CHAIR AT. MY
UNDERSTANDING OF THE BILL IS
THAT IT CANNOT BE USED FOR
EVIDENCE OF CONSENT IN A SEXUAL
ASSAULT NOT THAT IT CAN'T BE
USED- FOR SOME OTHER PURPOSE
WHEN THAT TYPE OF THE TYPE OF
SCENARIO YOU'RE GOING THRILLED
WOULD. PROBABLY INVOLVE MORE
THAN A RAPE HARGE IN OUR
ASSAULT CHARGE RIGHT THERE'S
OTHER THINGS GOING ON SO THIS
PARTICULAR- PROHIBITION WOULD
BE UTILIZING WHAT THE VICTIM
WAS WEARING FOR EVIDENCE OF
CONSENT. AND AGAIN I CHALLENGE
ANYONE BECAUSE- LITERALLY YOU
COULD WEAR A SHIRT THAT SAYS
PLEASE WRITE ME AND THAT IS NOT
EVIDENCE OF CONSENT SO I DON'T
KNOW I CAN'T THINK. I LIVE
RIGHT WHEN I SAW THIS I JUST
WENT ROUND AND ROUND OF LIKE
YOU PROBABLY ARE DOING LIKE
WHAT IN WHAT WORLD. SHOULD THE
JUDGE EVER. STATE OKAY IN THE
INTEREST OF JUDGE OF. JUSTICE
WE'RE GONNA ALLOW THIS IN THAT
SHOWS YOU THE DANGER THAT THESE
VICTIMS EVEN FACE COMING FOR
THAT THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO
GO THROUGH THAT SO. I JUST. FOR
THE LIFE OF ME CAN'T IMAGINE
THERE'S A CIRCUMSTANCE WHERE
WHAT SOMEBODY WAS WEARING HAD
ANYTHING TO DO WITH CONSENT. I
GUESS. THOSE ALONG. THE
QUESTIONS ARE HERE TO THAT THIS
BILL. DEALS STRICTLY WITH
CONSENT- AND NOTHING ELSE
BECAUSE TO I CAN. TELL YOU HAVE
MANY SCENARIOS WORD DRESS WAS A
FACTOR IN A CRIME THAT WAS
COMMITTED. TO LURE SOMEONE
SOMEWHERE I I'VE WITNESSED IT
YOU KNOW CHAU. I'VE HEARD ABOUT
IT SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
IS WHEN YOU CHOOSE AND YOU.
MADE IT CLEAR YES IF YOU'RE
WALKING ON THE STREET AND SAYS.
NO PLEASE TICK THAT'S NOT. YOU
KNOW WE'RE TALKING ABOUT BUT
I'M THE ENEMY DOESN'T GIVE
JUSTIFICATION TO ANYTHING- YOU
KNOW TO SEXUALLY ASSAULT
ANYBODY MALE OR WOMAN BUT JUST
MAKING SURE THAT OTHER CRIMES
ARE COULD BE COMMITTED BASED ON
WHAT YOU LEARN IS NOT INCLUDED
HERE AND WHAT WE'RE- DEALING
WITH TODAY. YES AND THAT'S MY
UNDERSTANDING OF THIS BILL I
HATE YOU KNOW THE YOU ALWAYS
RUN INTO DANGER WHEN YOU'RE
PRESENTING SOMEBODY ELSE'S
BILL. I KNOW THAT THAT'S THE
UNDERSTANDING OF THE AUTHOR AND
IF IT NEEDS- AT IF THEY SHOULD
GO OUT TODAY AND THEY NEEDS
FURTHER CLARIFICATION TO ENSURE
THAT THAT IS WHAT IS HAPPENING
WITH THIS I'M SURE SHE WOULD BE
WILLING TO DO WE GET THE
LETTER. TO THE JOURNAL-
COUNSELOR STATING THAT ARE.
DESERVE SOME SAFEGUARDS THAT WE
NEED TO. BE SURE THAT. I JUST
QUESTION ON THE ARM CHAIR I DID
SEE ON PAGE FIVE OF THE
ANALYSIS IT DOES SAY THAT THE
BILL RETAINS THE ADMISSIBILITY
OF THIS EVIDENCE. ON IN CERTAIN
CIRCUMSTANCES I DON'T KNOW WHAT
THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES ARE BECAUSE
I DON'T I'M NOT FAMILIAR WITH
THE PENAL CODE IN RELATIONSHIP
TO IT. AND I DON'T KNOW IF THAT
IF THOSE PARTS THEY WERE
REPAINTED ARE ADEQUATE. AND
LIMIT AND THAT IT DOES DO THE
LIMITING THAT EVERYONE'S
DESCRIBING THAT WERE. IT THIS
IS THIS IS EXPRESSLY ONE- ON
THE CONSENSUS THAT'S EXPRESSLY
ON THE ISSUE OF CONSENT SUCKER.
SKINNER ASSEMBLY MEMBER. YEAH
IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE SAYING. IT
IS RIGHT OKAY. SOON GONZALEZ
FLETCHER LOOKED CLOSE M. I
THINK YOU KNOW THERE ARE MANY
OF US WHO BELIEVE THIS WAS THE
LAW BEFORE BECAUSE WE TALK
ABOUT IT AS IF IT IS WE
CELEBRATE DENIM DAY AS IF THAT
IS THE LAW HERE AND IT IT I
SHOULD BE WE YOU KNOW WE DO
WANT JUDGES TO HAVE A CERTAIN
AMOUNT OF FLEXIBILITY- BUT
THERE ARE INITIAL BIASES THAT
SOME PEOPLE HAVE NOT GOTTEN
THRILLED AND I THINK- HOW IN
PARTICULAR WOMEN DRESS COULD
RESULT IN SOME OF SPICES IS I
THINK WE HEARD IN THIS ROOM
TODAY SO. I RESPECTFULLY ASK
CAN I PUT. WE WERE SEEKING A-

THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR AND
MEMBERS I AM PROUD 2% ASSEMBLY
BILL NINE THREE SEVEN THE
VISION ACT. WHICH WOULD PROTECT
REFUGEE AND IMMIGRANT
CALIFORNIANS WHO HAVE BEEN
DEEMED ELIGIBLE FOR RELEASE
FROM BEING FUNNELED INTO
IMMIGRATION DETENTION BY
CALIFORNIA'S LOCAL JAIL FROM
THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF
CORRECTIONS AND REHABILITATION.
THESE ARE CALIFORNIANS WHO HAVE
COMPLETED THEIR TIME EARNED
PAROLE AND HAVE HAD THEIR
SENTENCE COMMUTED BY THE
GOVERNOR AFTER A CLOSE REVIEW
OF THE CLEMENCY APPLICATION.
WHEN LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT IN
THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF
CORRECTIONS AND REHABILITATION
ASSIST WITH TRANSFERS OF THESE
OF THESE INDIVIDUALS TO ICE
THEY IGNORE THEIR RECORD OF
REHABILITATION THEIR STABLE RE
ENTRY PLANS AND THEIR NETWORK
OF COMMUNITY AND FAMILY
SUPPORT. MANY CALIFORNIA
COUNTIES INCLUDING LOS ANGELES
SANTA CLARA SAN FRANCISCO
HUMBLE TOWN JOAQUIN SANTA CRUZ
CONTRA COSTA HAVE ALREADY
RECOGNIZED THIS AND HAVE ENDED
ALL TRANSFERS TO ICE. MEMBERS
IF NOT FOR WHERE THESE
INDIVIDUALS WERE BORN THEY
WOULD BE ALLOWED TO RETURN HOME
TO THEIR FAMILIES AND
COMMUNITIES IN RECENT YEARS THE
LEGISLATURE IN CALIFORNIA
VOTERS HAVE DEMONSTRATED A
COMMITMENT TO REFORM OUR
CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM AND THE
MASS INCARCERATION. HOWEVER FOR
IMMIGRANTS WHO HAVE EARNED
RELEASED THIS JUST MEANS
THEY'RE GOING TO BE HANDED OVER
TO ICE AND FACE PERMANENT
SEPARATION FROM THEIR FAMILIES
AND FROM THEIR COMMUNITIES. LET
ME BE CLEAR. CALIFORNIA IS
UNDER NO LEGAL OBLIGATION TO
ASSIST THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
WITH DEPORTATIONS. THE BILL
ALSO DOESN'T PRECLUDE STATE AND
LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT FROM
RESPONDING TO A CRIMINAL
WARRANT. OR PARTICIPATING IN
JOINT TASK FORCES FOR IF THE
PURPOSE OF THE TASK FORCE IS
CRIMINAL LAW ENFORCEMENT. NOT
IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT WHICH
IS NOT THEIR JOB. ON MARCH
THIRTIETH A WOMAN FROM OMANI
NAME GABBY SOLANO. WAS
TRANSFERRED BY CDCR TO ICE.
GETTY CAME TO THIS COUNTRY AT
AGE AT THE AGE OF TWO. AS A
LAWFUL PERMANENT RESIDENT.
GABBY IS A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
SURVIVOR AND SPENT HALF HER
LIFE BEHIND BARS FOR A CRIME.
COMMITTED BY HER EX ABUSIVE
PARTNER. AFTER SERVING TWENTY
YEARS IN STATE PRISON GOVERNOR
BROWN COMMUTED HER SENTENCE IN
RECOGNITION OF HER DEMONSTRATED
RECORD OF COMMITMENT TO
SERVICE. MENTORSHIP AND
REHABILITATION. HOWEVER RATHER
THAN ALLOW GABBY TO RETURN HOME
TO HER FAMILY IN SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA A PRIVATE COMPANY
CONTRACTED WITH ICE PICKED HER
UP FROM THE CDC OUR FACILITY IN
THE CENTRAL VALLEY AND
TRANSPORTED HER TO A DETENTION
CENTER IN COLORADO. ICE
INCARCERATION WAS SO
EXCRUCIATING BUT GABBY DECIDED
TO SIGN HER OWN DEPORTATION
ORDER RATHER THAN CONTINUE
PURSUING HER LEGAL CASE MANY
INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS
RECEIVE AN INTER MINUTE
SENTENCE MEANING THAT THEIR
ONLY OPPORTUNITY TO RETURN TO
THE COMMUNITY AFTER GOING
THROUGH THE RIGOROUS PEARL
PROCESS WITH THE CIRCUMSTANCES
OF THEIR CASE AND THE RECORD OF
REHABILITATION ARE CLOSELY
REVIEWED. IMMIGRANT
CALIFORNIANS WHO HAS SERVED OUT
THEIR SENTENCES OR HAVE
RECEIVED TO PAROLE SHOULD NOT
FACE A SECOND PUNISHMENT WE
SHOULD NOT FUNNEL THEM TO ICE
DETENTION WERE SYSTEMATIC
ABUSES IN INCOMING INTO MAIN
CONDITIONS ARE VERY WELL
DOCUMENTED. THE VISION ACT WILL
END ICE TRANSFERS FROM OUR
LOCAL JAILS AND CDCR A PRACTICE
THAT TREATS PEOPLE DIFFERENTLY
BASED ON WHERE THEY WERE BORN.

RESPECTFULLY IN OPPOSITION AB

IN THE CONTEXT OF THE DEBATE
ABOUT SB FIFTY FOUR SHARES DO
NOT UNDERTAKE IMMIGRATION
ENFORCEMENT. THAT SAID MANY
COUNTIES MADE PUBLIC
CONSIDERABLE INFORMATION ABOUT
PERSONS DETAINED IN JAILS FOR
SUMMER REASONS. ALSO STATE AND
LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES
MAY BE ASKED TO PROVIDE SAFETY
BY OTHER AGENCIES. AB NINE
THIRTY SEVEN WOULD ELIMINATE
THE ABILITY OF LAW ENFORCEMENT
TO DO EITHER OF THOSE THINGS.
IF THE ACTION HAPPEN TO INCLUDE
AN IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT
PURPOSE. ON THE PART OF THE
OTHER AGENCY. FURTHER
ELIMINATING THE REQUIREMENT
THAT OFFENDERS PLACE OF BIRTH
BE INCLUDED IN BASIC
INFORMATION STORED IN STATE OR
LOCAL CRIMINAL OFFENDER RECORD
INFORMATION SYSTEMS. WILL MAKE
THAT INFORMATION LESS ACCURATE
AND LESS USEFUL TO THE
STAKEHOLDERS THAT RELY UPON
THAT INFORMATION. ACTIVE OF

NO ONE IN Q. BRING IT BACK TO
THE COMMITTEE ARE THERE ANY
QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS BY THE
COMMITTEE. CENTER TROUBLED I
JUST HAVE A COUPLE STEPS- SOME
COMMENTS ON THIS ONE THANK YOU
MISTER CHAIR- SO. SOME OF YOU
KNOW I'M A DAUGHTER OF
IMMIGRANTS HANNAH ANDERSON
FIRSTHAND AND I'M SENSITIVE TO
THE STRUGGLES THAT IMMIGRANTS
FACE. HOWEVER I ALSO UNDERSTAND
THAT OUR STATE HAS A DUTY TO
PROTECT THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE
HERE. SB FIFTY FOUR FROM TWO
THOUSAND AND SEVENTY ALREADY
PROHIBITED LAW ENFORCEMENT FROM
COOPERATING WITH IMMIGRATION
OFFICIALS WHEN IT CAME TO A
LONG LIST OF OFFENSES. BUT EVEN
THOSE WHO BROUGHT THAT BILL
FORWARD ULTIMATELY UNDERSTOOD
THAT THERE WERE CERTAIN MORE
HEINOUS OFFENSES THAT IT WAS
ESSENTIAL FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT
TO COOPERATE WITH IMMIGRATIONS.
OFFICIALS ON. THOSE ITEMS THAT
WERE EXCLUDED FROM THAT BILL
INCLUDED SERIOUS AND VIOLENT
FELONIES. AMONG OTHER SERIOUS
OFFENSES. NOW WITH THIS BILL-
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT EXTENDING
THAT PROTECTION TO CASES THAT
INVOLVE THINGS LIKE MURDER.
FORCIBLE RAPE TORTURE HE CRIMES
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND CHILD
**** TO NAME A FEW. THERE THESE
ARE CRIMES AT THE STORE THE
LIVES OF THEIR VICTIMS AND
THOSE THAT LOVE THEM. IT IS
BECAUSE OF THOSE VICTIMS AND
THEIR FAMILIES BUT I CANNOT
SUPPORT THE BILL TODAY. IN
ADDITION QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS
IN REGARDS CENTER COMMON IN DO
I WANNA. I THINK THE OTHER FOR
BRINGING THIS FORWARD AND AT
THE APPROPRIATE TIME LIKE TO BE
ADDED AS A CO AUTHOR. KERN SAID
ASSEMBLY WOMAN. CARRILLO WOULD
YOU LIKE TO CLOSE MAY I ASK A
QUESTION TO THE SENATOR. THE
ISSUE WILL YOU TAKE A QUESTION
SENATOR OTRO BOOK- HOPEFULLY I
CAN ANSWER. DO YOU THE TEACHER
THANK YOU DO YOU BELIEVE THAT A
PERSON WHO HAS. BEEN
INCARCERATED WHO HAS SERVED
THEIR TIME WHO HAS GONE BEFORE
THE PAROLE BOARD IN THE PAROLE
BOARD SAYS. YES YOU ARE
REHABILITATED TO RETURN TO YOUR
HOME. DO YOU BELIEVE THAT A
PERSON THAT IS INCARCERATED HAS
THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE
REHABILITATED. I'M NOT AN
EXPERT AND NOT. IN THAT FIELD
SITE I DON'T FEEL PREPARED TO
MAKE THAT STATEMENT BUT I CAN
TELL YOU THAT- PERSONAL NOTE I
WOULD HOPE. THAT THEY WOULD BE
A AT THE ABILITY TO DO THAT.
BUT I THINK IT IT VARIES- AND
SO FORTH BUT I'M NOT AN EXPERT
IN THAT FIELD SO I CAN'T SAY
ONE WAYOR ANOTHER BUT
PERSONALLY I WOULD HOPE. I
APPRECIATE THE RESPONSE AND I
GUESS MY FOLLOW UP QUESTION IS.
DO YOU BELIEVE THE PAROLE BOARD
THE THIRD JOB ACCORDINGLY TO
THE LAW TO BE ABLE TO SAY YES
THIS PERSON AS WE HAVE
ALLOCATED BECAUSE THEY ARE IN
FACT THE EXPERTS. I WOULD HOPE
SO BUT THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THIS
BILL DOES THIS BILL DOES NOT
CHANGE THE PAROLE BOARD IT DOES
NOT CHANGE SENTENCING IT DOES
NOT CHANGE THE INCARCERATION
PROCESS IT DOES NOT TAKE AWAY
THE RESPONSIBILITY AN
OBLIGATION OF THE PAROLE BOARD
TO DO THEIR JOB ITSIMPLY SAYS
IF YOU HAVE COMMITTED A CRIME.
IF YOU HAVE SERVED YOUR TIME IF
YOU GO BEFORE THE PAROLE BOARD
IN THE PAROLE BOARD TO YOUR
POINT ARE THE EXPERTS AND THEY
SAY YES YOU ARE REHABILITATED
AND YOU HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY IN
A RIGHT TO RETURN HOME AND BE
WITH YOUR FAMILY. IF THE ANSWER
IS YES. AND THAT'S ALL WE NEED.
AND IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE YOU
WERE BORN WHETHER YOU ARE A
CITIZEN OR RESIDENT OR A TPS
HOLDER OR UNDOCUMENTED. WE HAVE
CREATED A SYSTEM IN THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA THAT
UNFORTUNATELY. TREATS PEOPLE
JUST SIMPLY BECAUSE OF WHERE
THEY WERE BORN DIFFERENTLY AND
UNEQUAL. AND I DON'T KNOW ABOUT
YOU BUT I'M NOT OKAY WITH THAT.
I'M NOT OKAY WITH CALIFORNIA
CREATING A JUSTICE SYSTEM. THAT
TREATS PEOPLE DIFFERENTLY BASED
ON THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN. AND
WHERE THEY WERE BORN WHICH IS
EXACTLY WHAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT
NOW THANK YOU. AND IF I MAY
I'LL JUST CLOSE FAR WILL ALLOW
YOU TO MAKE YOUR CLOSE THANK
YOU I WANT TO BRING INTO THE
SPACE. THE INCARCERATED
FIREFIGHTERS WHO HAD BEEN
DETAINED BY ICE AND ARE FACING
DEPORTATION THE VETERANS WHO
HAVE SERVED THEIR COUNTRY WELL
AND PERHAPS AFTER PTSD AND
OTHER ISSUES HAVE CREATED A
CRIME AND HAVE ALSO FACED ICE
ATTENTION AND DEPORTATION. I
WANT TO BRING INTO THE SPACE
THE PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA WHO
HAVE A RIGHT TO LIVE WITH
DIGNITY. AND THAT IS WHY THE
VISION ACT IS NOW MORE
IMPORTANT THAN EVER BEFORE TO
ENSURE. THAT JUSTICE PREVAILS
AND THAT ALL PEOPLE REGARDLESS
OF THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN OR
WHERE THEY WERE BORN. ARE
TREATED EQUALLY IN THE STATE. I
RESPECTFULLY REQUEST AN AYE

LUMBERTON CRISTINA GARCIA.
THANK YOU MR CHAIRMAN MEMBERS.
AB ELEVEN SEVENTY ONE WOULD
REPEAL THE EXISTING SPOUSAL
RAPE PROVISION IN CALIFORNIA
LAW AND WILL PROVIDE EQUITY
VICTIMIZATION NOT BE TREATED
DIFFERENTLY BECAUSE OF THEIR
MARCH STATUS KRYLOV MINIMIZES
THE IMPACT OF RAPE AND HAVE
HOUSE ON MARRIED INDIVIDUALS IN
THIS BILL ALLOWS SIMILAR
OUTCOMES FOR BOTH MARRIED AND
UNMARRIED BIG BANDS THERE ARE
NOW ONLY NINE STATES THAT
DISTINGUISHED ALSO RAPE FROM
NORTH SOUTH OF RAPE IN THE
UNITED STATES. I AM I ENOUGH.
IF AN INDIVIDUAL'S RIGHT BY A
STRANGER OR EVEN THEIR PARTNER
WHICH WITH THEY HAVE FOUGHT FOR
A YEARS LONG RELATIONSHIP THE
ACT THIS DRAMATIC AND IS
CARRIED ON FOR A LIFETIME IT'S
NO DIFFERENT WHEN THEY ARE MADE
BY SPELLS SPELLS EXPERIENCE
RAPE EXPERIENCE RAPE SUFFER
FROM LONG LASTING PHYSICAL AND
PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS FROM
THEIR EXPERIENCE. A HANDFUL
STUDIES HAVE FOUND
POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER
FEAR ANXIETY DEPRESSION AND
SEXUAL FUNCTION TO BE
CONSEQUENCES AMID A WAVE. OF MY
CHOICE AND DOESN'T MAKE THE
CONSEQUENCES OF RAPE ANY LESS
SEVERE. AB ELEVEN SEVENTY ONE
WAS SIMPLY FOR FIGHT PARITY IN
CALIFORNIA LAW. IT WOULD
REQUIRE THIS THING SANDERS A
SELF RATE THAT ARE CURRENTLY IN
PENAL CODE FOR NON SPOUSAL.
RAPE WITH ME TO TESTIFY IN
SUPPORT I HAVE TIME FRANCISCO
DISTRIBUTORS THE ATTORNEY. SAYS
THAT THE DEAN AND THE PRESIDENT
OF CALIFORNIA NATIONAL
ORGANIZATION. FOR WOMEN HOLIKA
SIEGEL. ESPECIALLY I VOTE.
THANK YOU ARE. D. A. BUILDING.
THANK YOU CHAIR BRADFORD AND
COMMITTEE MEMBERS FOR YOUR TIME
AND YOUR ATTENTION ON THIS
IMPORTANT ISSUE I ALSO WANT TO
SPECIALLY THANK ASSEMBLY MEMBER
GARCIA PROVIDING THE- SPEAK
TODAY. ALSO SPECIAL THANKS
ASSEMBLYMEMBER GARCIA AND
SENATOR CORTEZ BEFORE SERVING
AS CHAMPIONS FOR SURVIVORS OF
SEXUAL ASSAULT. ROSTERING THIS
CHANGE IN THE LAW. AS OUR
COMMUNITIES CALL FOR RAISING
VICTIMAS REVIVAL VOICES FOR
HOLDING ACCOUNTABLE THOSE WHO
ENGAGE IN ACTS OF SEXUAL
VIOLENCE CALIFORNIA LAW
CONTINUES TO PERPETUATE
CENTURIES OLD INHUMAN IN IN
AQABA PRACTICES THAT REINFORCE
THE IDEA THAT A SPOUSE IS
SEXUAL PROPERTY AND PROVIDE
THEIR VOCAL CONSENT WHICH IS
WRONG. IT MUST BE CORRECTED AND
THIS LAW WOULD CORRECT IT AB
ELEVEN SEVENTY ONE PROVIDES
PARITY IN CALIFORNIA LAW IT
WOULD REQUIRE THE SAME
STANDARDS FOR SPOUSAL RAPE THAT
ARE CURRENTLY IN THE PENAL
CODE. FOR RAPE. RATED UNIVERSE
ACKNOWLEDGED AS A CRIME OF
VIOLENCE THAT IS BOTH
PHYSICALLY AND PSYCHOLOGICALLY
HARMFUL TO THE VICTIM.
CALIFORNIA PEOPLE WORKING TO
GET UNDER SPECIAL RAPE LAWS MAY
FACE LESS SEVERE SENTENCING AND
OTHER- SENTENCING REQUIREMENTS
AS A RESULT OF THE EGAL
RELATIONSHIP IN OTHER WORDS
THOSE WHO ARE UNABLE TO GET
MARRIED WHETHER BECAUSE OF
CLASS SEXUAL ORIENTATION
RELIGIOUS OBSTACLES OR WHATEVER
ELSE. ARE DENIED THE PRIVILEGE
AND- EQUAL TREATMENT. AS
COMPARED. TO THOSE WHO ARE
MARRIED. WHEN MERYL IS NOT
TREATED AS SERIOUSLY AS OTHER
FORMS ARE GREAT IT INVALIDATES
THE VICTIMS PROMETIC EXPERIENCE
AND CONTINUE TO PROMOTE RAPE
CULTURE. CRIMES INVOLVING
SEXUAL ASSAULT AND VIOLENCE
HAVE A UNIQUE IMPACT ON
SURVIVORS OFTEN LAYERED WITH
EXTENSIVE TRAUMA RESPONSES THAT
CAN LAST A LIFETIME. LONG
LASTING IMPACTS OCCUR
REGARDLESS OF THE RELATIONSHIP
STATUS. I'VE BEEN A SILENT WITH
A SURVIVOR OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE
WHETHER THEY HAVE NEVER MET
BEFORE WHETHER THEY'RE ON A
FIRST DATE WHETHER THEY'RE IN A
NON- OUR LEGAL MARRIAGE AT
ROCK- HABITATION WELL WHEN THEY
ARE LEGALLY MARRIED. THE
IMPACTS ARE- ALL THE SAME IN
TERMS OF THE LONG LASTING
NATURE OF THE HARM CAUSED
MOREOVER A PERSON WHO COMMITS
RAPE SHOULD NOT BE SHIELDED
ACCOUNTABILITY. SIMPLY BECAUSE
THEY ARE LEGALLY MARRIED TO THE
VICTIM CERTIFICATE OF MARRIAGE
COULD NOT PROVIDE FOR MORE
LENIENT OR DESPERATE CRIMINAL
LEGAL OUTCOMES. REGARDLESS OF
THE RELATIONSHIP GREAT IS GREAT.
AB ELEVEN SEVENTY ONE
ELIMINATES THE DISTINCTION SO
WE CAN ENSURE JUSTICE FOR ALL
VICTIMS OF SEXUAL ASSAULT
REGARDLESS OF THE RELATIONSHIP
THEY HAVE TO THE PERSON WHO
HARM THEM. SPECIFICALLY AB
ELEVEN SEVENTY ONE REPEALS
PENAL CODE SECTION TWO SIX TWO
AND DELETE QUOTE NOT THE SPOUSE
OF THE PERPETRATOR AND QUOTE
FROM PEOPLE CODE SECTION TWO
SIXTY ONE. WORDS FREE TRADE
THAT'S GREAT THIS IS A
PRACTICAL AND NECESSARY CHANGE
IN THE LAW TO ADDRESS AN
ARCHAIC PROVISION OF THE
CALIFORNIA PENAL CODE. THAT
DOES NOT PROTECT ALL SURVIVORS
OF SEXUAL ASSAULT. AND THAT
TREATS WOMEN AS THE PROPERTY OF
THEIR SPOUSES. THERE IS
PRECEDENT FOR MANY OTHER STATES
AROUND THE COUNTRY SUPPORTING
THIS PROPOSED CHANGE IN LAW IT
WOULD SIMPLIFY THE PENAL CODE.
IT WOULD NOT IN ANY WAY CHANGE
THE BURDEN OF PROOF THAT
PROSECUTORS LIKE MYSELF WOULD
HAVE TO MEET IN A COURT OF LAW
BEFORE SECURING A CRIMINAL
CONVICTION. ALTHOUGH THERE ARE-
MANY STATES THAT HAVE MADE
PROGRESS CALIFORNIA REMAINS
ONE. OF VERY VERY FEW. THAT
FAILS TO MAKE THIS DISTINCTION
OR THAT THAT CONTINUES TO MAKE
THIS DISTINCTION I SHOULD SAY
BETWEEN SPOUSAL RAPE AND NON
SPOUSAL RAPE. THEY COMMONSENSE
REFORM CONSISTENT WITH ALL OF
OUR VALUES- EIGHT REFORM THAT
IS NECESSARY TO TREAT. ALL
WOMEN EQUALLY AND TO CREATE ALL
GREAT EQUALLY. THESE REASONS I
SUPPORT ASSEMBLY BILL ELEVEN
SEVENTY ONE I URGE YOUR AYE
VOTE TO REPAIR AND INEXCUSABLE
WRONG. THAT LANGUISHES IN OUR
CRIMINAL LEGAL SYSTEM AS A
LEGACY THANK YOU THEY- BY LAW
THEY ARE- AND I APPRECIATE YOUR
SUPPORT FOR THIS BILL THANK YOU.
THANKS WITH HIS. A SINGLE. GOOD
EVENING- I WANT TO START BY
THANKING EACH AND EVERYONE OF
THE PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE
MEMBERS- INTO THE CHAIRS AND
THE BRADFORD FOR GRANTING US IF
HEARING ARE TO BE OUT THERE-
ASSEMBLY MEMBER CRISTINA GARCIA
I WANT TO THANK HER AND DINNER
OR GET ME AND ALL OF THE
SENATORS THAT MYSELF AND DOCTOR
DAWBER HAVE SPOKEN WITH OVER
THE LAST FEW WEEKS THANK YOU
FOR ALLOWING ME TO JOIN YOU
TODAY AND FOR TAKING UP THIS
VERY CRITICALLY IMPORTANT
ISSUE. MY NAME IS KANIKA SIEGEL
AND I'M THE FIRST AFRICAN
AMERICAN PRESIDENT OF THE
CALIFORNIA NATIONAL DIVISION
FOR WOMEN AND SINCE OUR
FOUNDING IN NINETEEN SEVENTY
FIVE ENDING VIOLENCE AGAINST
WOMEN. HAS BEEN ONE OF OUR CORE
A SHE- BUT THE DEGREE CAL. NOW
HAS BEEN AT THE FOR. OF THE
SPELL THE RAPE ISSUE. SAID THAT
EARLIER INTEGRATION IN NINETEEN
SEVENTY SEVEN. SO FOR US IT'S A
LONG OVERDUE. THE RISE TODAY IN
SUPPORT OF AB ONE ONE SEVENTY
ONE. A CALL FOR AN END TO THIS
PROBLEM A BIG SECTION IN
CALIFORNIA. WE HAVE HEARD THE
STORIES FROM SURVIVORS
THROUGHOUT OUR MEMBERSHIP
ACROSS THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
AND ACROSS THE COUNTRY. AND I'M
HERE TODAY IN GEAR SUPPORTING
THEM. WE ARRIVED TODAY FOR THE
SAFETY AND PROTECTION OF THE
MARRIED WOMAN JUST AS WE WOULD
IN SUPPORT OF THE SINGLE ONE OF
THIS CRIME AND THE IMPACT ON
THE SAME. THE BIGGEST PROBLEM
WE SEE HERE IS THE ANTIQUATED
THINKING SURROUNDING SEXUAL
ASSAULT AN INTIMATE PARTNER
VIOLENCE. OUR COLLECTIVE
IGNORANCE. AROUND HOW WE DEFINE
AND YOU MAKE THEM AND THE
DISREGARD FOR THE CRITICAL
IMPORTANCE OF CONSENT. I WANT
TO ADD THE INABILITY TO JUST
CALL A SPADE A SPADE. MY
MESSAGE TODAY IS VERY SIMPLE
THAT RAPE IS RAPE IF YOU'RE A
COLLEGE STUDENT WITH THE GRADE
IF YOU'RE A WOMAN OF COLOR
WE'VE BEEN RAISED IF YOU'RE A
TRANS WOMAN WAIT FOR THE RAIN
IF YOU HAVE A DISABILITY AND
RAPE IS RAPE. IF YOU'RE MARRIED
OR NOT. WE A CALIFORNIA NOW ARE
IN SUPPORT OF THE WHOLE WOMAN'S
AND THE WHOLE. AND ACROSS THEIR
INTERSECTIONAL IDENTITIES. WE
ASK THAT YOU STAND WITH
SURVIVORS AND WE CALL AN END TO
THE SITUATIONAL SUPPORT THE
VICTIM. AND AB ONE ONE SEVENTY
ONE DOES JUST THAT AND IT WOULD
PROVIDE A PARITY IN CALIFORNIA
LAW REQUIRED THE SAME STANDARDS
FOR THE RAPE OF THE SPOUSE.
THAT ARE CURRENTLY IN THE
PINOCHLE PENAL CODE FOR THE
RAPE OF A NON SPOUSE. WE WERE
CONVICTED UNDER SMALL THE RED
LINE CALIFORNIA CURRENTLY. FACE
LESS SEVERE SEVENTEEN WHICH IS
UNACCEPTABLE FULL STOP. WHEN
MARITAL RAPE IS NOT TREATED AS
SERIOUSLY AS NON METAL MARITAL
RAPE IT INVALIDATES THE
DRAMATIC IMPACT ON THE
SURVIVORS WE'RE GOING TO NEED
YOU TO CONCLUDE. ONLY PLEASE.
OKAY REVERSIONARY BE SHIELDED
WHICH TRICKS VESSEL TREATMENT
WITHIN THE MOBILE AND THAT
INCLUDES BEING REQUIRED TO
REJECT REGISTER AS A SEX
OFFENDER AFTER BEING CONVICTED
OF SUCH A HEINOUS CRIME OF RAPE
IS RAPE REGARDLESS IN AB ONE
SEVENTY ONE ELIMINATES THAT
DISTINCTION AND WE URGE YOUR
SUPPORT THANK YOU SO MUCH.

ALLISON THE DALLAS AND- I'M
TESTIFYING ON BEHALF OF
CALIFORNIA ATTORNEYS FOR
CRIMINAL JUSTICE. E. J. OPPOSES
THE SPELL. SO WILL HAMPER THE
JUDGE IN PUNISHING THE
DEFENDANT THE MOST APPROPRIATE
WAY GIVEN THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF
THE OFFENSE AND CONSIDERATION
AND INPUT FROM THE VICTIM.
ALTHOUGH RATED DIFFERENT
WITHOUT THE RATE THERE'S A
SEXUAL HISTORY AND
INTERPERSONAL DYNAMICS AT PLAY.
UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES
JUDICIAL DISCRETION AND VICTIM
INPUT NECESSARY. AB ELEVEN
TWENTY ONE WE'RE MAYES JUDICIAL
DISCRETION WHEN REQUIRES
CHRISTMAS IN FACT OFFENDER
REGISTRATION AND ALL CASES
HOWEVER ALL CASES MAY NOT
WARRANT THAT SEVERE OF A
PUNISHMENT. FAMILY AND CHILDREN
MAY BE A PART OF THE SENTENCING
TEAM CURRENTLY THE JUDGE HAS
THE TOOLS TO FASHION A
PUNISHMENT TO ALLOW FOR A
CHANCE TO WORK FOR- FAMILY
REUNIFICATION OR HAVING THE
OFFENDER PROVIDE FOR THE
FAMILY. THAT'S WHAT THE GREAT
FROM ONE. NOT EVERY CASE IS THE
CLAIM. ACTUALLY DEALING CLIENTS
FAMILY THAT. THE LEGISLATURE
NOT BE THE JUDICIAL OFFICER WHO
IS AND THE FACT THE VISION TO
RENDER THE MOST APPROPRIATE
PUNISHMENT GIVEN ALL THE
VARIABLES IN EACH INDIVIDUAL
CASE. A. B. ELEVEN SEVENTY ONE
IS NOT THE ANSWER. WOW YEAH
THANK. THANK YOU. NEXT WITNESS
IT. THANK YOU CHAIR NUMBERS
THIS IS LESLIE CALDWELL HOUSTON
FOR THE CALIFORNIA PUBLIC
DEFENDERS ASSOCIATION. ALL
THERE HAS BEEN DIALOGUE WITH
THE OFFERING OTHER
ORGANIZATIONS WE BELIEVE MORE
TIME IS NECESSARY TO UNDERSTAND
THE BILL'S UNINTENDED
CONSEQUENCES IT SHOULD BE NOTED
THAT SPELLS WILL RATE IS
ALREADY A CRIME. AB ELEVEN
SEVENTY ONE TAKES DISCRETION
FROM JUDGES DISMISSALS BUT
DESIRES AND NEEDS OF VICTIMS
AND STRIPS DEVELOPMENTALLY AND
PHYSICALLY DISABLED
CALIFORNIANS FROM THE CAPACITY
TO CONSENT TO SEXUAL ACTIVITY
WITH THEIR SPOUSES. ON A
PERSONAL NOTE AS THE RAPE
SURVIVOR MYSELF AND THE MOTHER
OF A RAPE SURVIVOR AS WELL AS
THE CAREER LONG DISTANCE AND
TURNING I CAN SAY WE ALL WANT
TO EMIGRATE IN OUR COMMUNITIES.
HOWEVER AB ELEVEN SEVENTY ONE
WOULD CRIMINALIZE THE SEX LIVES
OF MEMORY DEVELOPMENTALLY OR
PHYSICALLY DISABLED BROWSERS
JIM FENDER PANEL CODE SECTION
TWO SIXTY ONE SUB A SUB ONE
THEY WOULD BE DEEMED INCAPABLE.
OF CONSENTING TO SET. ALTHOUGH
CPD UNDER THE DESIGN. TO
RECOGNIZE THE TRAUMA DISPOSAL
RATE AB ELEVEN SEVENTY ONE IS
BAD PUBLIC POLICY IN THAT IT
TAKES AWAY JUDICIAL DISCRETION
AND IMPOSES A ONE SIZE FITS ALL
CENTERED. ON INDIVIDUALS BY
TAKING AWAY JUDICIAL DISCRETION
AB ELEVEN SEVENTY ONE FORCES
COURTS DIFFERENTLY ABOUT THE
STATE PRISON EVEN IF THE VICTIM
EXPLICITLY STATE THEY DO NOT
NOT WANT PRESENT OR
REGISTRATION BOTH OF WHICH TAKE
AWAY AN INDIVIDUAL'S ABILITY TO
FIND OR KEEP EMPLOYMENT. THAT
VICTIM AND ECONOMIC HARDSHIP
THAT WOULD PLACE. ON THE VICTIM
AND THE CHILDREN. BUDGET
ALREADY HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO
IMPOSE PRISON AND OR
REGISTRATION ON A DEFENDANT
CONVICTED OF BELGRADE IF THAT
IS THE APPROPRIATE PUNISHMENT
AND TAKING VICTIMS NEEDS INTO
CONSIDERATION FURTHER THERE'S
ALREADY A TENSION IN CALIFORNIA
A LOT BETWEEN THE DESIRE TO
PROJECT DISABLED INDIVIDUALS.
AND RESPECTING THEIR RIGHT THE
CAN CONTROL THEIR OWN LIVES FOR
THESE REASONS WE URGE YOUR NO
VOTE UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE
UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES OF AB.
ELEVEN SEVENTY ONE CAN BE
ADDRESSED THANK YOU. THANK YOU

FOUR PLEASE CLASS. AND TO LOOK
FOR YOUR LINE IS OPEN. THERE
ARE NO OTHERS IN Q. THIRTY ONE
IN Q. THERE'S NO ONE IN Q. OKAY
THANK YOU WILL BRING IT BACK TO
COMMITTEE OTHER QUESTIONS ARE
CONCERNED CENTER PROBLEM. THANK
YOU MISTER CHAIR I WANNA- I
THANK THE AUTHOR FOR- BEING
THIS BILL FORWARD I- ACTUALLY
THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US TO
TALK ABOUT SEX- FROM A POLICY
STANDPOINT. I PERSONALLY
BELIEVE THAT AS A CULTURE WE-
EXHIBIT INCREDIBLE
SCHIZOPHRENIA- WHAT WE DO
BEHIND CLOSED DOORS IS
INCREDIBLY DIFFERENT FROM WHAT
WE ESPOUSE IN PUBLIC- AND WE
ARE- INCREDIBLY PROVINCIAL- AS
A- COUNTRY. WHEN IT COMES TO
SEX BUT IF YOU ASK PEOPLE THE
REAL DEAL- YOU HEAR STORIES
AND- ABOUT THE BEHAVIORS AND
PREFERENCES THAT ARE- VERY FAR
FROM THAT. AND I THINK IF WE
CAN HAVE MORE AND MORE
CONVERSATIONS ABOUT SEX- WE CAN
ERASE THE- STIGMAS THEN WE HAVE
PLACED ON IT. AND HOPEFULLY
ENTER INTO A DISCUSSION THAT IS
FAR MORE HONEST- THEN WHAT WE
TRY TO PORTRAY- I THINK AS A
RESULT OF THAT. SCHIZOPHRENIA
WE HAVE CREATED A VERY BROKEN
SYSTEM AS IT RELATES TO OUR SEX
OFFENDER REGISTRY AND HOW THAT
AND HOW SEX IS WEAPONIZED BY
OUR D. A.'S. TOM OFTENTIMES
AGAINST BLACK AND BROWN
COMMUNITIES BECAUSE ALL YOU
HAVE TO DO IS SAY SEX IS TALK
ABOUT SEX AND PEOPLE GET
NERVOUS AND IT IS UNFAIR.
BECAUSE IT IS SOMETHING THAT S
REALLY REALLY HARD TO OVERCOME.
AND I SAY THAT ALSO AS A
SURVIVOR- I HAVE A COUPLE OF
QUESTIONS. NUMBER ONE IS DOES
THIS BILL SPEAK TO- YOU KNOW
CONSENTING ACTS. OF ROLE PLAY
AND ROUGH PLAY THAT OFTEN TIMES
CAN HAPPEN- BETWEEN CONSULTING
CONSENTING- AND PROBABLY
CONSULTING ADULTS WHO ARE
MARRIED- BECAUSE I WOULD BE
CONCERNED ABOUT- EIGHT YOU KNOW
IF THIS IS SILENT ON THAT AND
THEN HOW THAT IS EITHER USED OR
MISCONSTRUED OR MISUSED OR-
BECAUSE I THINK CRIMINAL
CHARGES OF ANY NATURE REALLY
IMPORTANT AND SHOULD BE- YOU
KNOW THOUGHT ABOUT VERY
CAREFULLY. BEFORE LEVIED
AGAINST SO I JUST WANT TO KNOW
BECAUSE- TO SOME OF THE
CONCERNS THAT WERE RAISED BY
THE OPPOSITION- THOSE COULD
COME INTO INTO PLAY- IF
ALLEGATIONS OF- OF SPOUSAL
RAPE- WERE LEVIED- PHIL LET ME
START OFF BY- IF THE SPELL THE
ROLE PLAY IS CONSENSUAL WHETHER
YOU'RE MARRIED OR NOT. I WOULD
SAY THAT. THAT'S NOT RAPE AND-
WE HAVE A VERY DETAILED IN THE
LAST QUESTION THAT I DON'T WANT
TO SAY YES FOR SURE THIS ISWHAT THE BILL SAYS OR THE LAW
THE PENAL CODE SECTION OF SPACE
SO I DON'T WANT TO SPEAK OUT OF
PLACE IT WOULD BE MY ASSUMPTION
BUT I'VE BEEN HERE LONG ENOUGH
THAT THAT'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH.
AND SO I DON'T KNOW OF ONE OF
THE WITNESSES THAT I HAD THE
DAC ABLE TO ANSWER THAT
QUESTION FOR YOU IN A BETTER
WAY AND IF THAT WOULD BE A
LITTLE BY THE CHAIR YOURSELF
FOR FINANCER. I DON'T SPEAK OUT
OF PLACE- ARM. AGAIN OPEN TO.
AND SO I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN
ASK MY SECOND QUESTION. OKAY
AND THEN MAYBE. THE WITNESSES
CAN- RESPOND TO BOTH OF THEM.
SO I. AM VERY INTERESTED IN WHY
DISABILITY RIGHTS HAS A NEUTRAL
POSITION ON THIS. I WILL ALSO
SHARE THAT- I AM THE- CO PARENT
OF A CHILD WITH DISABILITIES
AND I AM INTIMATELY INVOLVED
WITH THE DISABILITY COMMUNITY-
AND WORK VERY CLOSELY WITH A
COUPLE OF THE REGIONAL CENTERS
THAT ARE IN MY DISTRICT. AND I
TALK WITH THEM ABOUT THIS BILL.
AND- HAPPY TO REPORT THAT- OUR
DISABILITY COMMUNITY IS
SEXUALLY ACTIVE AND THRIVING-
BUT I ALSO KNOW THAT OUR
DOMINANT CULTURE HAS A VERY
CONDESCENDING AND PATRONIZING-
ATTITUDE TOWARDS OUR DISABILITY
COMMUNITY- ONE THAT IS
INCREASINGLY FOCUSED ON.
PROGRAMS DESIGNED AROUND SELF
DETERMINATION SO THAT THEY ARE
ABLE TO FULLY EXPRESS WHO THEY
ARE. AND I WANT TO KNOW IF THIS
BILL SPELLS OUT WHAT LEGAL
CONSENT LOOKS LIKE FOR THE
DISABILITY COMMUNITY. AND THE
REASON WHY I ASK IS BECAUSE IN
MY INTERACTIONS WITH MY FAMILY
MEMBERS AND OTHER FOLKS- WHO
ARE DISABLED- YOU KNOW FOLKS
HAVE TICKS. FOLKS MAKE
DIFFERENT KINDS OF SOUNDS FOLKS
HAVE THE REGULATED AND
UNREGULATED BODIES. WINDOWS
DON'T ALWAYS ALIGN WITH WHAT
THE DOMINANT CULTURE CONSTRUES
AS BEING NORMAL. AND SO IN THE
HEIGHT OF A DISCUSSION AROUND
FREE BRITNEY AND
CONSERVATORSHIP AND SOMEONE
ELSE'S IDEA OF WHAT NORMAL IS
FOR A PARTICULAR PERSON. OR
WHAT SORT OF. MENTAL ACUITY
INSTABILITY LOOKS LIKE IT IS
VERY DIFFERENT FOR FOLKS YOU
KNOW IN THE DISABILITY
COMMUNITY SPECIFICALLY FOLKS
WITH DOWN SYNDROME- AND SO I'M
VERY CURIOUS ABOUT DOES THIS
SPELL OUT WHAT LEGAL CONSENT
LOOKS LIKE FOR THEM BECAUSE
WHAT I SEE AND WHAT I HEAR.
RIGHT WITH TWO CONSENTING WHO
ARE ALSO WHO IN AND THE MANY
INSTANCES SOMEONE WHO HAS DOWN
SYNDROME IS MARRIED TO SOMEONE
WHO HAS DOWN SYNDROME NOT
ALWAYS THESE ARE SOME
GENERALIZATIONS BUT- I'M JUST
CURIOUS ABOUT THAT BECAUSE I
MAY SEE SOMETHING OR HEAR
SOMETHING AND SAY OH MY
GOODNESS. THIS PERSON IS BEING
RAPED. BUT THAT MAY NOT BE THE
CASE IT'S JUST A SOUND THAT
MAYBE I DON'T ASSOCIATE WITH
YOU KNOW WHAT I EXPERIENCE WHEN
I'M HAVING SEX. SO I'M CURIOUS
WHAT HOW THE WHAT THIS IS THE
SILENT ON THAT OR ARE THERE
SOME SPECIFICS ON THAT BECAUSE
I WOULD BE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT
US CRIMINALISING SEXUAL
INTERCOURSE AND BEHAVIOR-
BETWEEN FOLKS WHO ARE IN THE
DISABILITY COMMUNITY. THANK YOU
FOR THAT QUESTION I THINK. WE I
PERSONALLY FEEL LIKE WE NEED TO
CREATE THE SPACE AND BE BETTER
TOWARD DISABLED COMMUNITY X. X.
I THINK WE IMPOSE NORMS ON FAIR
THERE. AND THEY SHOULD BE ABLE
TO HAVE THE WILL AND ABILITY
THE FREE WILL TO SAY YES AND
ALSO TO STAY NOW- AND I AGREE
WITH YOU THAT OFTEN TEND TO
MISCONSTRUE THAT AND WE- WE ARE
NOT ALWAYS FOR IN THAT SPACE.
IN MY DISCUSSIONS WITH THE
DISABILITY RIGHTS COALITION- WE
STARTED TO ENGAGE IN DISCUSSION
OF A HIGHLY MAKE SURE THEY'RE
ABLE TO SAY YES AND ABLE TO SAY
NO. AND I WOULD SAY THAT AT
THIS POINT THE BILL ISN'T CLEAR
ON THAT SPACE AND AMENDMENT
HAVE BEEN DISCUSSED BY A
COMMITTEE. AND IT IT DOES IT IT
ALLOWS FOR YES BUT IT DOESN'T
ALLOW FOR NOW. OUT THERE I
WOULD SAY NO MATTER WHAT
HAPPENS WE NEED TO GET THIS
RIGHT WHETHER IT'S- BEFORE THIS
MOVES- TO OUT OF DISPENSED OR A
NEW BILL MAKE SURE THAT'S IN
THE COMMITMENT WITH THE
DISABILITIES RIGHTS GROUPS.
THAT WE NEED TO FIGURE THIS OUT
I. BECAUSE THE AMENDMENT
OFFERED ONLY ALLOWS FOR YES AN
OFFER NO IT MAKES ME
UNCOMFORTABLE BUT IT I'M
WILLING TO MOVE IN THAT
DIRECTION AND THAT'S HOW I NEED
TO MOVE TO CONTINUE THE
DISCUSSION. BUT EITHER WAY MY
COMMITMENT IS TO FIGURE OUT HOW
WE ALLOW FLEXIBLE SAY YES AND
I'LL ND IN A WAY WHAT THE
DISABILITY RIGHTS GROUPS ARE
ABLE TO COME IN AND HELP DEFINE
WHAT THAT IS. AND THE ANSWER
HAS BEEN THAT AT THIS POINT
THEY HAVEN'T HAD ENOUGH TIME.
TO FIGURE THAT OUT AND THEY
HAVE ASKED FOR MORE. TIME UNTIL
I THINK THE INITIALS ASIAN FROM
MY AND THEIR- THIS. WHETHER
IT'S THE BILL OR THE BILL WITH
THE M. WAS HAVE THAT WORK TO DO
AND I'M COMMITTED TO DOING THAT
WORK. WITH THEM- BECAUSE YOU
SHOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE THE
ABILITY BOTH YES AND I'LL- SO I
THINK YOU FOR THAT- I DON'T
WANT TO GET EMOTIONAL BUT I
HAVE BEEN TO SO MANY. MEETINGS
AT MY REGIONAL CENTER WHERE-
FOLKS TO LABEL WHO ARE
IDENTIFIED AS BEING PART OF THE
DISABILITY COMMUNITY ARE
FIGHTING THEY ARE FIGHTING FOR
SELF DETERMINATION. AND SO MANY
TIMES IN THOSE DISCUSSIONS THEY
ARE MET WITH RESISTANCE FROM A
DOMINANT SOCIETY THAT IS
PROJECTING NORMS ONTO THEM WITH
OUT THEIR INPUT AND WITHOUT.
FULLY UNDERSTANDING THE SCOPE
AND THE VIBRANCY AND THE
COMPLEXITY OF THIS COMMUNITY
AND WE SHUT THEM DOWN WE SHUT
THEM DOWN WHEN THEY'RE SEEKING
EMPLOYMENT WE SHUT THEM DOWN
WHEN THEY ARE ASKING TO LIVE ON
THEIR OWN WE SHUT THEM DOWN
WHEN THEY'RE ASKING OR LOOKING
TO BE INVOLVED IN. ADULT
RELATIONSHIPS BECAUSE THERE'S
THIS PAROCHIAL. PATRONIZING
ASSUMPTION. THAT THEY CAN'T
MAKE IT WITHOUT US. OVERSEEING
HOW THEY LIVE AND THEY DON'T
WANT THAT- AND I EXPERIENCE OUT
EVERY DAY IN MY OWN HOUSEHOLD
HAVING TO. RE LEARN AND
UNDERSTAND WHAT TICKS AND
TRAITS AND BEHAVIORS MEAN TO
SOMEONE WHO IS ON THE SPECTRUM
AND NOT IN WORKING TO NOT
IMPOSE MY RATIONALE OF WHAT IS
NORMAL AND WHAT IS OKAY AND SO.
VERY RARELY DO WE HAVE
DISCUSSIONS ABOUT THE
DISABILITY COMMUNITY IN ANY OF
THESE CHAMBERS- AND SO I'M I'M-
REALLY ASKING THAT YOU CONTINUE
TO ENGAGE WITH THIS COMMUNITY
BECAUSE- AND IT'S NOT ABOUT THE
RATE BUT IT IS ABOUT SEX. AND
THEY DESERVE TO BE ABLE TO
ACTIVELY PARTICIPATE IN A
DISCUSSION ABOUT WHAT SEX IS
FOR THEM. I TOTALLY GET WHEN
THERE'S SOMEONE WHO IS NOT
DISABLED IMPOSING I MEAN I AM I
MEAN I KNOW WHAT RAPE IS. AND
THAT'S NOT A THAT'S NOT WHAT
I'M TALKING ABOUT BUT I AM
TALKING ABOUT THESE NEW ONES
SEASON NUANCES AND CREVICES
THAT GENERALLY DON'T GET THE
LIGHT WHICH IS WHY I DO
APPRECIATE THIS BILL. COMING
FORWARD BECAUSE IT ALLOWS US TO
TALK ABOUT SOMETHING THAT WE
DON'T REALLY TALK ABOUT VERY
OFTEN SO I AM ASKING THAT YOU
CONTINUE TO. WE ENGAGE IN
DISCUSSIONS WITH ARM. THE
STAKEHOLDERS FROM THE
DISABILITY COMMUNITY. IF FOR NO
OTHER REASON. THAN BECAUSE THIS
SENATOR HAS A CHILD. WHO
DESERVES TO HAVE A SEAT AT THE
TABLE WHEN DISCUSSING HOW HE-
IS ABLE TO LIVE AND I WOULD
SAY- I THINK WE ALL MAYBE NEED
TO GET A LITTLE MORE EMOTIONAL
ABOUT THIS THAT TO HAVE THESE
DISCUSSIONS AND WE DO NEED TO
HAVE THIS IS THAT DOESN'T HAVE
THE DISCUSSION WITH THE
STAKEHOLDERS THAT THIS AFFECTS
OUT THERE- I AGREE THAT WE MUST
UNDERSTAND AND THIS IS TRUE
AND- I SURE WOULD DO THE
FRUSTRATIONS OF HOW WE DEAL
WITH THIS WITH OUR
DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITY AND-
THERE HAS TO BE A SPACE FOR
MYSELF DETERMINATION AND THAT
SPACE I FULLY BELIEVE IN THAT.
I THINK IN GENERAL- TAKING THIS
ATTITUDE OF PUTTING PEOPLE AWAY
AND HIDING THEM IN AND NOT
ADDRESSING THIS ISSUE BUT WE
NEED TO HAVE THIS DISCUSSION
OVER TO BE FAIR- TO ALL
INDIVIDUALS TO BE INCLUSIVE
TELEVISION COMPLETED ADDING
CIRCLE HERE I AM VERY COMMITTED
TO THAT DISCUSSION WHETHER IT'S
A DISCUSSION BEFORE THIS BILL
IF I EVER GET TO THE GOVERNOR
THIS YEAR OR A NEW BILL NEXT
CHECK ME THAT COME IN THAT
COMMITMENT TO- THE DISABILITY
GROUPS US THAT WHATEVER WE COME
UP WITH SOMETHING THAT THEY'RE
COMFORTABLE WITH THE LESSONS
THEY BOTH YES. AND NO- AND IT'S
FAIR THAT WE HAVE IN FIGURE
THAT OUT AT THIS POINT AND THE
LAST THE IN MY DISCUSSION THE
SAID WE'RE OKAY WITH THIS BILL
MOVING WITH THAT WHAT THE
COMMITMENT THAT WE'RE GOING TO
FIGURE SOMETHING OUT FOR THIS
TO BUY THEIR TEN AMENDMENT DOWN
THE ROAD ARE YOU BILL MAKE SURE
SPECIFIC TO THE SPACE I AM VERY
MUCH COMMITTED TO THAT- AND
THEY'VE BEEN HERE FOR NINE
YEARS AND I THINK WHEN I SOME
COMMITTED SOMETHING I WORK ON
IT FOR YEARS ON END UNTIL IT
GETS DONE RIGHT I'M NOT GOING
TO WALK AWAY FROM THAT
COMMITMENT. BUT I ALSO FEEL
IT'S A HAVE TO DO IT ON HUNDRED
TERMS AND NOT MY TERMS AND SO I
THINK THAT THAT'S WHERE THEY'RE
NEUTRAL POSITIONS COMING FROM
FROM MY CONVERSATIONS WITH THEM
UP UNTIL THIS MORNING OUT THERE
INTO MY COMMITMENT IS GENUINE I
DON'T PRETEND TO HAVE ALL THE
ANSWERS AND ALL THE ANSWERS
OTHER THAN THAT I DO KNOW THAT
WE NEED TO DO BETTER AND
ALLOWING SELF DETERMINATION FOR
INDIVIDUALS OUT THERE AND SO-
WHATEVER THE DISABILITY IS THIS
I MEAN THAT WE SHOULD NOT HAVE
HIMSELF WITH TERMINATION OFTEN.
SO I DO APPRECIATE YOU SHOW
YOUR PERSONAL STORY WE US- AND-
I HOPE. IN MY LIFETIME MY TEN
YEAR NOT MY- BECAUSE FIGURE OUT
A BETTER SPACE AND IS NOT JUST.
ON ISSUES OF SEX BUT JUST IN
GENERAL- HOW WE TREAT THIS AND THERE'S A LOT OF
WORK TO BE DONE IN THAT SPACE.
THIS IS DIFFICULT VERY CAPABLE
GAIN IF I COULD BRIEFLY RESPOND
TO THE VERY IMPORTANT AND
PERSONAL- QUESTIONS AND STORIES
THAT THAT CENTER CAMARGO
SHARED- BECAUSE I THINK SHE
REYES REALLY CRITICAL ISSUES I
WANT TO JUST ACKNOWLEDGE THEM
THANK HER. AS WELL FOR SHARING
AND HER CONTRIBUTION ON THESE
ISSUES- AND ALSO EXPRESSED BY
COMMITMENT TO SELF
DETERMINATION I HAVE MANY
FAMILY MEMBERS AND STAFF
MEMBERS IN MY OFFICE AS WELL
WHO ARE DISABLED- AND I THINK
IT'S A CRITICAL ISSUE THAT IS.
AS YOU SAY OFTEN OVERLOOKED
GETTING EXCLUDED FROM THIS
CONVERSATION ABOUT SEXUAL
IDENTITY AND SEXUAL CONSENT AND
BEYOND- I ALSO WANT TO BE CLEAR
AND TRY TO FOCUS ON WHY HE IS
THE REAL QUESTION WHEN IT COMES
TO- THIS ASSMBLY BILL. THIS IS
NOT AN ASSEMBLY BILL THAT OULD
IN ANY WAY CHANGE THE LEGAL
STANDARD FOR WHAT PROSECUTORS
IN A COURT OF LAW HAVE TO
PROVE. TO SECURE A CRIMINAL
CONVICTION FOR RAPE IT DOESN'T
CHANGE THAT. AND IT WOULD NOT
IN ANY WAY ALTER. OR ELIMINATE.
A VERY LONGSTANDING WELL
ESTABLISHED LEGAL DEFENSE TO
SEXUAL ASSAULT WHICH IS KNOWN
AS THE MAYBERRY THANKS TO THE
FENCE WHICH- ESSENTIALLY-
REQUIRES PROSECUTORS. TO
ELIMINATE THE REASONABLE
POSSIBILITY. THAT THE PERSON
ACCUSED THOUGHT. THE VICTIM
CONSENTED. IT IS OUR BURDEN AS
PROSECUTORS IN EVERY SINGLE
CASE WITH OR WITHOUT THIS
CHANGE IN A LONG. TO ESTABLISH
BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT THAT
THERE WAS NO CONSENT AND THAT
THE PERSON ACCUSED COULD NOT
HAVE REASONABLY BELIEVED THERE
WAS CONSENT. MEETING THAT
BURDEN IS A VERY VERY DIFFICULT
THANKS MANY ARGUE MANY BELIEVE
IT'S TOO DIFFICULT AND THAT'S
WHY SO MUCH SEXUAL ASSAULT GOES
ON PUNISHED BUT WHAT IS
CERTAINLY TRUE IS IT IS
UNIQUELY DIFFICULT IN CASES.
WHERE BOTH PEOPLE ENGAGING IN
SEX ACTS ARE DISABLED
ESTABLISHING. A JURY THAT.
BACKS UNDER THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES
WAS NON CONSENSUAL AND
ELIMINATING THE POSSIBILITY
THAT IT WAS CONSENSUAL IS OFTEN
AN INSURMOUNTABLE BURDEN THIS
LAW WOULD NOT THIS PROPOSAL
THIS ASSEMBLY BILL WOULD NOT IN
ANY WAY CHANGE THAT LOFTY
BURDEN SO I JUST WANT TO BE
CLEAR ABOUT WHAT IT DOES AND
DOES NOT DO I ALSO WANT TO
EXPRESS MY COMMITMENT TO
WORKING WITH SENATOR TOM LONGER
AND THE SENATE IN GENERAL ON.
HAVING THIS CONVERSATION BRING
IT OUT OF THE SHADOWS AND
INCLUDING- DISABLED MEMBERS OUR
FAMILIES OUR COMMUNITIES. WITH
YOU TO THE TABLE THANK YOU
THANK YOU. ANY ADDITIONAL
QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS FOR THIS
CORRECT. WELL I I'D- M. THE
THANKFUL AND I WANT TO
ACKNOWLEDGE AND FULL DISCLOSURE
THAT I ACTUALLY HAD A
CONVERSATION WITH THE DA OVER
THE WEEKEND ABOUT THIS BILL BUT
MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT IT
RENEGADES THE ABILITY FOR CALM.
FOLKS WITH DIFF DEVELOPMENTAL
DISABILITIES FROM CONSENTING
AND SO MY CONCERN IS IT TOO
LATE WHERE ESPOUSES INCAPABLE
OF GIVING LEGAL CONSENT DUE TO
A DISABILITY DO YOU KNOW LIKE
WHAT THE STANDARD IS SO
BECAUSE- ONCE AGAIN IN MANY
INSTANCES. THE COUPLE BOTH OF
THEM. CAN HAVE IF THEY BOTH
HAVE A DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITY
HOW DOES THAT PLAY OUT. SENATOR
THE SHORT ANSWER IS THAT IN ANY
CRIMINAL CASE CERTAINLY
INCLUDING THESE KINDS OF
CIRCUMSTANCES. IT IS THE BURDEN
OF THE PROSECUTOR THE BURDEN OF
FOR EXAMPLE THE LAWYERS MY
OFFICE OR ANY OTHER DISTRICT
ATTORNEY OFFICES ACROSS THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA. WHEN
FILING A CRIMINAL CASE IT IS
OUR BURDEN TO ESTABLISH EACH
AND EVERY ELEMENT OF. THE
PARTICULAR CRIME CHARGED BUT
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT RAPE FOR
EXAMPLE IT WOULD BE OUR BURDEN
TO PROVE THE TEXAS COURT IT
WILL BE OUR BURDEN OF PROOF TO
PROVE THAT THE SEX WAS NON
CONSENSUAL IT WILL BE OUR
BURDEN TO PROVE. THAT NOT ONLY
WAS NON CONSENSUAL SEX BUT THAT
THE PERSON ACCUSED COULD NOT
HAVE REASONABLY BELIEVES. THAT
IT WAS CONSENSUAL SEX. IN MANY
INSTANCES EVEN IF THERE'S A
CONSERVATORSHIP IN PLACE FOR
ONE OF THE INDIVIDUALS THAT
ALONE IS NOT ENOUGH THAT'S NOT
SUFFICIENT. IN OTHER WORDS WE
HAVE THE VERY DIFFICULT OFTEN
IMPOSSIBLE BURDEN AS
PROSECUTORS IF WE CHOOSE TO
FILE RAPE CHARGES. OTHER
SALVAGING THAT A PERSON EVEN A
PERSON WAS SEVERE DISABILITIES
COULD NOT HAVE REASONABLY
UNDERSTOOD. THAT THE PERSON
THEY HAD SEX WITH- WHO WAS
CONTENT. IN OTHER WORDS WE HAVE
TO ELIMINATE THE POSSIBILITY
THE REASONABLE POSSIBILITY THAT
THE ALLEGED VICTIM COULD HAVE
BEEN. IN CENTER. A DIFFICULT
BURDEN IT'S ACTUALLY MORE
DIFFICULT IN CASES WHERE
DISABILITIES ARE INVOLVED NOT
BECAUSE WE UNDERMINE THE SEXUAL
IDENTITY OR SEXUAL AUTONOMY OF
DISABLED PEOPLE I THINK YOU'RE
RIGHT THAT WE DO AS A SOCIETY
BUT THAT'S A SEPARATE ISSUE
FROM THIS LEGAL REFORM LEGAL
REFORM IS REALLY JUST LOOKING
AT. WHETHER RAPE IS RAPE IT
DOESN'T. THE LEGAL STANDARD FOR
PROVING IT IF IT'S IF IT'S A
LEAD. IT DOESN'T CHANGE THE
INCENTIVES FOR PEOPLE TO
ALLEGED CORRECTLY OR
INCORRECTLY WHAT IT DOES IS
CREATE A UNIFORM SYSTEM OF
RESPONSE THAT ACCOUNTABILITY
WHEN RATE. CAN BE PROVED IT.
AND WE ALL KNOW THAT IT HAPPENS
FAR FAR FAR MORE OFTEN. THAT IT
CAN BE PROVEN BY PROSECUTORS.
WELL NO I THINK YOU FOR THAT
BUT I WE WERE TALKING I WAS
THINKING BACK TO A CASE THAT
WAS- TRIED IN MY COUNTY- FROM-
A FORMER DA- AND- THE PERSON
THE YOUNG MAN DID HAVE A DEBOUT
DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITY AND
WAS CHARGED WITH RAPE AND HE
THEN THAT WAS NOT WHAT
HAPPENED- AND IN FACT THE- THE
PROSECUTION SAID. WE KNOW HE
DOESN'T NEED JAIL- BECAUSE WE
KNOW HE HAS A MENTAL-
DISABILITY- BUT WE'RE GOING TO
CHARGE HIM ANYWAY BECAUSE THIS
IS AN EASY WIN. ARM AND SO I E.
II DO WHAT AID YOU KNOW I DID
IT SO I MEAN THAT'S JUST THAT'S
THE REAL STORY SO I'M AS AND I
WOULD HATE FOR SOMETHING LIKE
THIS TO BE PREDICATED ON WHO
THE D. EIGHT IS- BECAUSE AND
WE'RE PUTTING OUR EGGS YOU KNOW
QUITE FRANKLY IN YOUR BASKET IN
IN A COUPLE OF OTHER PEOPLE'S
BASKETS THAT WE HAVE A LOT OF
FAITH IN. THERE ARE AND I
APPRECIATE THAT BATES SENATOR
AND- I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT I
DON'T THINK THIS LAW WOULD
CHANGE THE STORY THAT YOU
DESCRIBE. I MEAN IF THEY WERE
LEGALLY MARRIED. OUR GALLAGHER
WE'RE GOOD AT MAYBE IT WOULD
BE. WELL I THINK HI G. OF
COURSE ON THE CENTER. TROUBLE
CONDUCTOR CENTER SKINNER. OKAY
RIGHT WILL LOOK LET ME LET ME
GO ON RECORD I WAS REALLY
HOPING THAT THEY ARE AMENDMENTS
THAT THIS COMMITTEE HAS PUT
FORTH AND I WILL CLEARLY STATE
ON BECAUSE THE AMENDMENT
DEFINITELY SPEAK TO THE BILITY
OF DISABLED PEOPLE TO SAY YES
AND TO SIGNAL AND CONSENTING TO
EIGHTY SIX AND AMENDMENTS
ADDRESS THE CONCERNS OF THE
OPPOSITION OF THE BILL THAT THE
BILL WOULD CRIMINALIZE WILL
FULL SEXUAL INTERCOURSE BETWEEN
MARRIED COUPLES OR ONE OR BOTH.
ARE DISABLED. THE BILL WHICH
DEAL TOTALLY DELETE AND LET ME
STATE AGAIN TOTALLY THE LEAKED
AND PARTY. OF SECTION CODE I
MEAN SECTION- WHAT I TO SAY
SECTION. STE. TWO SIX TWO.
WHICH WOULD REMOVE SPOUSAL RAPE
AND THAT'S THE INTENT OF THIS
BILL TO REMOVE THAT COLD AND
EVERYONE HERE SUPPORTS THE OVER
ARCHING GOALS OF THIS. BILL AND
WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO ACHIEVE
HERE- THE MEMBERS SHOULD NOT
ADDRESS ALL THE CONCERNS THAT
HAVE BEEN RAISED BY THE
OPPOSITION WE'RE NOT HERE TO
SAY THAT IT DOES BUT THIS BILL
REMOVES DISCRETION OF JUDGES TO
GRANT PROBATION OR TO NOT
REQUIRE MANDATORY LIFETIME SEX
REGISTRATION AND AGAIN IT'S NOT
A SINGLE PERSON HERE WHO
CONDONES RAPE- I HOPE IT'S NO
ONE IN THIS BUILDING AND I'LL
NO ONE ANYWHERE AROUND HERE
WOULD DO THAT BUT I THINK THE-
BILL ALSO A SILENT ON THE FACT
THAT. MEN ARE REAP TO. AND ALL
THE TESTIMONY ONLY SPEAKS TO
WOMEN BEING RAPED AND MEN ARE
BEING RAPED EVERY DAY. IN THIS
COUNTRY AND IT SPEAKS NOTHING
THIS AWARD IS A STAND AS IT
RELATES TO MEN BEING HURT. A
CASE LET MYSELF WITH. MEN ARE
DEFINITELY RATES AS WELL IT'S
THIS IS AN THE GENDER DOESN'T
MATTER AND IT'S ABOUT POWER OUR
NEXT. AND SO IT'S NOT MY INTENT
TO THAT ONLY A IT'S ONLY IF YOU
KNOW FOR WOMEN I THINK IT
SPEAKS BILL OR THE GENDER
ROLLED IN THE PAR THEN I MIX
THAT WE'RE WORKING TO BRING
PARITY. TO AND THE WORDS THAT
WE USE THAT TIME SO I WOULD
START WITH THAT PIECE THE
SECOND PIECE I WOULD SAY WITH
THE AMENDMENT. THAT YOU JUST
DESCRIBED I THINK IT DEFINITELY
ALLOWS FOR YES- AND A SEARCH TO
ADDRESS HALF OF THE ISSUE AND
PROBLEM THAT WE HAVE TO ADDRESS
BUT IT DOESN'T ALLOW FOR NOW
YES HE DOES. WHAT WE'RE GONNA
DO DISAGREE ON THAT IT
DEFINITELY LAWS FOR NOW. IT'S A-
IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING AND
TALKING TO FOLKS AND IN TALKING
TO THE DISABILITIES GROUPS THAT
IT DOESN'T ALLOW FOR NOEL. LET
THE COUNCIL TWENTY. IT WOULD
STILL ALLOW FOR SOMEONE TO BE
RAPED SO JUST SO IF THE MAN IT
MAKES IT SO THAT A PERSON WITH
DISABILITIES IS NOT PRESUME TO
NOT BE ABLE TO CONSENT WITHIN A
MARRIAGE WHICH IS WHAT THIS
BILL DOES IT MAKES IT
STATUTORILY JUST AS WE SAY
SEVENTEEN YEAR OLD CAN'T CAN'T
CAN'T CONSENT. UNLESS THEY'RE
MARRIED. IF THEY'RE MARRIED
THEY CAN. BUT IT DOES IT DOES
NOT CHANGE RATE A PERSON CAN
STILL BE CHARGED WITH RAPE IF
THE IF THE IF THE PERSON WITH
THE DISABILITY SAYS. I DIDN'T
CONSENT I A T. ATTACKED ME THIS
OR ANY OF THE OTHER THINGS IF
THE PERSON IS DISABILITY SAYS I
DIDN'T CONSENT IT'S STILL GREAT
EVEN UNDER THE AMENDMENT WHAT
THE SOME BUT WHAT YOUR BILL
CURRENTLY SAYS THE PERSON WITH
DISABILITY IS NOT ALLOWED TO
CONSENT EVEN IN THE PICTURE OF
MARCH. AND SO THIS JUST REMAINS
REMOVES FAT JUST AS A FIFTEEN
OR SIXTEEN YEAR OLD CANNOT
CONSENT BUT IF THEY'RE MARRIED
LAW RECOGNIZES. THEM IN
MARRIAGE AND THEY'RE ALLOWED TO
CONSENT. BECAUSE OCCASIONALLY
THEY GET MARRIED SO THIS IS
THIS BILL ALL IT DOES IS REMOVE.
THE AMENDMENT THAT SAYS PEOPLE
WITH DISABILITIES EVEN WITHIN
MARRIAGE CANNOT CONSENT IF THE
PERSON SAYS MY HUSBAND RAPED ME.
THEY CAN STILL BE CHARGED WITH
RAPE JUST LIKE THEY CAN UNDER
EXISTING LAW. SO IT JUST SAYS
IT JUST TAKES AWAY THE
PRESUMPTION THAT THERE IS NOT
CONSENT. I WOULD SAY THAT IN MY
DISCUSSIONS UP UNTIL THIS
MORNING INCLUDING LIKE THE
DISABILITY RIGHTS ATTORNEYS
THAT. THEY FEEL THAT IT DOES
ADDRESS THE OF THE YES SIDE OF
THE EQUATION BUT NOT THE NORTH
SIDE OF THE EQUATION WHY
THEY'VE ASKED FOR MORE TIME
GIVE US FOR THERE TO BE A
DISCUSSION THAT'S- YOU KNOW
SPECIFIC HERE AND AN ADDITIONAL
BILL TO TRY TO ADDRESS. THOSE
ISSUES- I AM FULLY COMMITTED.
TO GETTING IT RIGHT WITH THE
STAKEHOLDERS AND- AT ENSURING
THAT WE ARE CREATING A BETTER
SYSTEM THERE ARE AND I HAD IF
THE AMENDMENT TO SET THOSE WITH
US I AM WILLING TO TAKE THAT
AMENDMENTS- IN IF IT DOESN'T I
WANTED TO FIND A SOLUTION
WHETHER IT'S AT SOME POINT DOWN
THE ROAD- AND I WANT TO MAKE
SURE THAT OUR DISABILITY RIGHTS
STAKEHOLDERS ARE COMFORTABLE
WITH BUT THAT THAT'S IT IT DOES
TAKE IT BECAUSE IT DOESN'T DEAL
WITH. GREAT IT JUST DEALS WITH
THE IT JUST TAKES OUT THE OF
THE STATEMENT IN YOUR BILL THAT
SAYS A PERSON WITH DISABILITY
IS NOT CAPABLE OF CONSENT. SO
THIS A PERSON CAN. THAT IT DOES
THAT HAVE TO BE CAPABLE TO. I'M
SORRY I JUST I AM NOT AWARE OF
ANY PRESUMPTION IN THE LAW THE
DISABLED PEOPLE CANNOT CONSENT
THAT'S WHAT THIS BILL IF I'M
NOT FAMILIAR WITH THAT. THAT
THAT IS WHAT THAT ARE. KERN SO
I HAVE NOT MADE ANY HEADWAY
WITH IT IS IN THE LAW STATES
THAT YOU ARE MISTAKEN. IT
WOULDN'T BE THE FIRST TIME WE
ALL MAKE MISTAKES I'M NOT AWARE
OF ANY EXACTLY ALL RIGHT WELL
WE'RE NOT GOING TO WE'RE GOING
TO HAVE A BACK AND FORTH WITH
WE'RE TRYING TO GET TO
UNDERSTANDING THAT. AGAIN MY
COMMITMENT IS THAT IF THAT IS.
THAT IT GIVE IF THE AMENDMENT.
ALLOWS FOR YES AND NO. IT DOES
AND- IT'S FAIR AT THIS POINT
THAT'S NOT MY YOU'RE TAKING THE
MOMENTUM. IF IT'S FROM MY
DISCUSSIONS WITH THE WITH THE
DISABILITY RIGHTS. RUPE IT'S
NOT CLEAR TO THEM THAT THIS
AMENDMENT ALLOWS FOR SNL WE'VE
TALKED TO WILL WE MUST B
TALKING TO DIFFERENT GROUPS
BECAUSE DISABILITY GROUPS SO
WE'VE TALKED TO ARM APPROVED
THIS LANGUAGE SO MAYBE IT'S
DIFFERENT FACTIONS WITHIN THE
DISABILITY RIGHT COMMUNITY BUT
I THINK WE'VE CRAFTED AN
AMENDMENT THAT ACHIEVE YOUR
GOAL IT'S- I THINK IT'S NOT NOT
A MORE VILE DISGUSTING ACT.
THAT YOU CAN COMMIT ON SOMEBODY
RATE ABSENT MURDER ANYWAYS RAPE
IS WORSE TO MURDER BECAUSE YOU
HAVE TO LIVE WITH THAT TRAUMA
FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. AND
I HAVE. GIRLFRIEND EX
GIRLFRIEND IN COLLEGE WHO WAS
RAPED BY KNOW THE TORMENT THAT
IT PUT ON HER AND SHE STILL
SUFFERS FROM THAT. TODAY BUT I
ALSO HAVE FRIENDS WHO ARE
DISABLED AND HAVE FAMILY
MEMBERS WHO ARE DISABLED COURT
IN LOVING CARING RELATIONSHIPS
AND I'VE EXPERIENCED OVER THE
LAST COUPLE MONTHS OF THEM
INTERACTING. AND LEGACY IT'S
NOT ARE TRADITIONALLY
INTERACTION BUT- THEY
COMMUNICATE. AND LOVE IN A WAY
THAT MIGHT BE DIFFERENT FROM
EACH AND WHAT EACH AND EVERYONE
OF US HERE AND I DON'T WANT TO
BE THE ONE TO DENY THEM. THAT
OPPORTUNITY AGAIN WE'RE HERE TO
ACHIEVE YOUR GOAL OF.
ELIMINATING SPOUSAL RAPE WHICH
YOU CAN'T RAPE IS RAPE. NO
MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT IT BUT I
THINK WE ALSO SHOULD SHOW A
LITTLE BIT OF CONSIDERATION
AND- WHO. CONSIDER THAT WHICH
DISABLED COMMUNITY HAS TO DEAL
WITH AND I THINK THIS AMENDMENT
GIVES YOU TO. GIVE US JUST THAT
AND GIVE YOU THE BILL THAT YOU
NEED TO ACHIEVE THE GOALS.
SKINNER APOLOGIES THAT I WASN'T
HERE FOR THE WHOLE DISCUSSION
BECAUSE WE'RE HAVING A BUDET
BRIEFING AT TIMING IS TERRIBLE
THE WHAT. I OBVIOUSLY WAS HERE
FOR MOST THE COMMITTEE UP UNTIL
THAT POINT- I WONDER DID ANY OF
THE DISABILITY RIGHTS GROUPS
TESTIFY HAVE WE HEARD FROM THEM
DIRECTLY AND I DON'T MEAN YOU
OF COURSE HAVE TO COMMIT BUT
DID. WAS THERE ANY TESTIMONY
PRESENTED IN. I THINK ONE
STATED THEY WERE NEUTRAL ON THE
BILL AS OF TODAY. YES THAT'S
THE ONLY THING THAT GIVES ME A
SLIGHT PAUSE. BY COMPLETELY
APPRECIATE. SHARE WHAT YOU AND
STAFFORD TRYING TO DO HERE I
1100% APPRECIATE THAT AND I
ALSO HEAR. THAT OUR PUBLIC
DEFENDERS THAT WHAT ONE MAN
PUBLIC DEFENDERS SAYING THAT-
DA SAYING THAT THAT- WHATEVER
THE BILL DOESN'T HOWEVER WE
HAVE ANOTHER THE CHECK SO I'M
GOING TO ASSUME THAT IN FACT.
THE WAY THAT IT'S CONSTRUCTED
NOW IS HAS A FLAW IN THAT WE
HAVE TO FIX THE FLAW SO AND
I'VE HEARD DOCTORS SAY SHE'S
ALSO WILLING TO FIX THE FLAW.
NO I ALSO KNOWN AS BEING THE
FORMER CHAIR FOLK SAFETY THAT
OUR STAFF ARE REALLY GOOD. BUT
OF COURSE WE ALSO BECAUSE WE'RE
TRYING TO FIX A FLAW FOR A
SPECIFIC COMMUNITY WHICH IS THE
DISABILITY COMMUNITY. IT WOULD
BE HELPFUL TO KNOW THAT THEY
ARE. ALSO COMFORTABLE WITH THAT
WHICH WAY WE WERE SORRY WITH
THE WAY IT'S CONSTRUCTED- I
KNOW THAT'S HARD THIS OUR LAST
DAY HAVE COMMITTEE AND SUCH-
BUT WE- COULD BE BE WILLING
MEAN SHE'S COMMITTED TO TAKING
THE AMENDMENT. BUT CAN WE GET A-
CAN WE GET SOME INFORMATION
FROM THE PRIMARY THE DISABILITY
RIGHTS COALITION THAT THEY ARE
COMFORTABLE WITH THE
CONSTRUCTION OF IT. YES MEANING
THAT IT FROM THEIR POINT OF
VIEW ACHIEVES THE SAME
OBJECTIVE THAT THE COMMITTEE IS
TRYING TO ACHIEVE. WHAT I'M
GOING TO SUGGEST THAT YOU TAKE
IT HERE TODAY AND- IF GOING
FORWARD THEY HAVE THE- PROBLEM
WITH THE MOMENT THAT WE PUT
FORTH THEN WE CAN ADDRESS A
GOING FORWARD BUT- TO TAKE IT
HERE TODAY TO. GET MY SUPPORT
AND AN ADDRESS IT IN AND LEAVE
THE- ROOM OPEN TO CONTINUE
WORKING ON IT IF. THEY COME
BACK WITH OPPOSITION WILL BE
MORE THAN HAPPY TO ADDRESS AT
THE- AT THANK YOU CHAIR I THINK
YOU CAN ACTUALLY HAVE THE SAME
GOAL ONSELEN OF THE STATE THAT
FOR THE RECORD I THINK ON THE
SAME TEAM. HERE AND SO- WE HAVE
THE SAME GOAL AND I THINK.
ASKING ME TO TAKE A MOMENT AND
OF THIS THE COMMUNITY HAS AN
ISSUE WITH THAT TO COME BACK
AND ADDRESS IT LOOKS I THINK
THIS RIGHT YOU'RE YOU'RE YOU'RE
LEAVING OUT. THE DOOR OPEN FOR
US I WOULD DEFINITELY DO THAT
AND SO I I'M COMFORTABLE WITH
THAT TODAY- AND ADDRESSING IT
AT THE END THE DAY I WANT TO
ADDRESS THAT I WANT TO MAKE
SURE OR DISABILITY.
STAKEHOLDERS ARE COMFORTABLE
WITH WHEREVER WE LAND AND IS.
AN AND THEY SHOULD HAVE A
REALIZATION AND BEING ME OVER
HERE IS SAYING THAT THIS IS
RIGHT OR NOT RIGHT AND SO VERY
MUCH COMMITTED TO THE TO THAT
WORK AND I IS ON THE FOR ME
THAT- WE ARE GOING TO KEEP
WORKING. TOGETHER AND IF THEY
HAVE CONCERNS WE WILL ADDRESS
THOSE CONCERNS AND IF NOT WE
WILL WE WILL LET IT BE THE BUT
THE AMENDMENTS. THANK YOU I
APPRECIATE. I DO APPRECIATE THE
WORK THAT YOU'RE STAFF YOURSELF
IN THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS ARE
PUTTING INTO THIS OTHER WAY
TRYING TO GET IT BUT I DO.
FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT WE'RE ALL
ON THE SAME PAGE HERETHAT WE
WANT TO MAKE SURE WE ARE DOING
THAT BETTER FOR DISABILITIES
COMMUNITY. YES THANK YOU WOULD
YOU LIKE TO CLOSE I
RESPECTFULLY. ASK FOR AN AYE
VOTE AND TO CONTINUE. WORKING
ON ON ON THIS IN I DO HAVE TO
FACE WE'RE GOING TO GO. THERE.

FINISH FOR A HOUSEKEEPING YOU
MAY BEGIN YOUR PRESENTATION.
USING TERRIFYING. YEAH IT WAS A-
BKD AMENDMENTS TO CHANGE THE
BILL'S REPORTING DATE TO
DECEMBER THIRTY FIRST TWENTY
TWENTY TWO SO THAT WE CAN GET A
REPORT BACK. REALLY BEFORE THE
PILOT SUNSETS ALL THIS BILL
DOES IS IT LOOKS AT AN
EXISTING. PILOT PROGRAM THAT IS
AUTHORIZED LEGISLATURE
AUTHORIZED IN SIX COUNTIES
ALAMEDA BUTTE NAPA. NEVADA
SANTA CLARA AND VENTURA. AND IT
ALLOWS ADULTS EIGHTEEN TO
TWENTY FIVE. TO VOLUNTARILY OPT
INTO PROGRAMS THAT ARE AGE
APPROPRIATE SO THAT THEY ARE
SERVED IN THE JUVENILE SYSTEM.
AS OPPOSED TO THE ADULT
FACILITY. INDICATIONS ARE THAT
THE PILOT IS WORKING HOWEVER.
BECAUSE OF COVERED IN SOME
OTHER RESTRICTIONS WE JUST NEED
TO EXTEND THE SUNSET A LITTLE
BIT LONGER I SUPPOSE SURE THAT
WE GET APPROPRIATE REPORTS
BACK. THAT IS WHAT AB THIRTEEN
EIGHTEEN DOES IS EXTEND THE
SUNSET AND CLEAN UP THE
LANGUAGE OF THE TIMING OF
GETTING REPORT BACK. WITH ME I
HAVE DANIEL SANTOS OF THE CHIEF
PROBATION OFFICERS TO TESTIFY
IN SUPPORT AND I ASK FOR YOUR
I. BOATS. THANK YOU. WE CAN
START WITH YOUR PRIMARY
WITNESS- DANIEL CENTERS. GOOD
EVENING MISTER CHAIR MEMBERS
DANIEL SANCHEZ ON BEHALF OF THE
CHIEF PROBATION OFFICER IS
PLEASED TO BE HERE TODAY TO
SPONSOR AB THIRTEEN EIGHTEEN-
THIS PROGRAM REFLECTS RESEARCH
ON YEAH- THE YOUNG ADULT AND
ADOLESCENT BRAIN DEVELOPMENT
AND REALLY THE IMPORTANT ROLE
AT AGE SPECIFIC PROGRAMS AND
RESPONSES IN THE JUVENILE-SYSTEM AND HELPING YOU. I THINK
THAT'S FULLY ON THE PATHWAY
THEN IN TRANSITIONING OUT OF
THE SYSTEM I'M AS STATED BY
ASSEMBLY MEMBER STONE THIS
WOULD EXTEND THE CURRENT SENSE
THAT FOR TWO YEARS WHICH WE
BELIEVE IS VERY IMPORTANT- IN
PROGRAM CONTINUITY I WOULD JUST
BRIEFLY HIGHLIGHT A FEW
IMPORTANT FACTORS OF THE
PROGRAM IT BRIDGES THE NEEDS
AND PROGRAMMING SPECIFIC TO
YOUNG ADULTS THAT THE JUVENILE
SYSTEM PROVIDES WITH THE- GOAL
OF HELPING TRANSITION THESE
YOUNG ADULTS PERMANENTLY OUT OF
THE SYSTEM. IT REQUIRES THE
INDIVIDUALS AND VOLUNTARY
CONSENT TO PARTICIPATE IT'S
BASED ON A LOCAL MULTI
DISCIPLINARY TEAM APPROACH TO
ESTABLISH THE PROGRAM AND
DISCUSS OPERATIONS OF THE
PROGRAM UPON SUCCESSFUL
COMPLETION OF THE PROGRAM THE
INDIVIDUAL HAD THEIR CHARGES
DISMISSED AND THE RECORD
CLEARED AND IT REQUIRES RE
ENTRY PLANNING AND THE
IDENTIFICATION OF EDUCATION
HOUSING AND RELATED SUPPORT. SO
WE SEE THIS AS AN IMPORTANT-
EXTENSION OF THE SUNSET ON- TO
CONTINUE CONTINUITY IN
PROGRAMMING FOR THESE YOUNG
ADULTS AND WE RESPECTFULLY.
REQUEST YOUR SUPPORT TODAY

JAIL VISITATION. SHERIFF'S
UNDERSTAND THE BENEFITS OF

PERSONS AND THEIR VISITORS BUT
THIS BILL GOES TOO FAR
MANDATING VISITATION AT THE
EXPENSE OF SEVERAL OTHER
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS. BY
LIMITING THE ABILITY TO SUSPEND
VISITATION TO ISSUES RELATED TO
SECURITY JAIL AUTHORITIES WOULD
BE PROHIBITED FROM CONDITIONING
VISITATION TERMS OF VISITATION
ON BEHAVIOR AND DISCIPLINE
CONSIDERATIONS. THIS LANGUAGE
WOULD ALSO PRECLUDE THE
SUSPENSION OF VISITATION THAT
HAS BEEN ADOPTED BY PRISON THE
MOST JAILED BECAUSE OF THE
COVERT NINETEEN PANDEMIC. WHICH
NECESSITATED LIMITING ACCESS TO
AND MOVEMENT WITHIN
CORRECTIONAL FACILITIES. FOR
THE MEDICAL SAFETY OF INMATES
AND STAFF. CHALLENGES LIKE
OTHER PANDEMICS NATURAL
DISASTERS AND EVEN LOGISTICAL
REALITIES LIKE POWER OUTAGES
AND HVAC BREAKDOWNS. WOULD NOT
SUFFICE AS LEGITIMATE REASONS
TO CANCEL OR POSTPONE
VISITATION UNDER THIS BILL.
ADDITIONALLY SOME JAIL
FACILITIES PROVIDE VISITATION
VIA VIDEO TECHNOLOGY. THIS
PROCESS HAS BEEN PERMITTED
UNDER STATUTE AND REGULATION IN
PLACE AT THE TIME. AND AB NINE
NINETY WERE OSTENSIBLY IMPOSE
MASSIVE MANDATED COSTS. IN

DOLLARS GETTING LATE. SENATOR
SKINNER THANK YOU- HE SAID
DENYING VISITATION IS NOT AN

FOR BRINGING IT. AND YOU KNOW
IF THERE'S POWER OUTAGES HAVE
PRISON OR JAIL- PRETTY MUCH
THING STILL FUNCTION SO I
APPRECIATE WHY SHERIFF'S MAY
HAVE SOME PROBLEMS WITH THE
PROVISIONS HOWEVER I THINK THE
