Under existing law, a person who deprives or violates the personal liberty of another with intent to effect or maintain specified felonies, including pandering or extortion, or to obtain forced labor or services, is guilty of human trafficking. Under existing law, a person convicted of human trafficking is punished by imprisonment in a state prison for 3, 4, or 5 years, unless the victim is under 18 years of age in which case the term of imprisonment is 4, 6, or 8 years. Existing law requires a fine of $100,000 when a person is convicted of human trafficking involving a commercial sex act and the victim is under 18 years of age. This bill would make the crime of human trafficking, where the victim is an adult and the crime involves a commercial sex act, punishable by 10, 12, or 14 years in state prison and, where the victim is a minor and the crime involves a commercial sex act, punishable by 25 years to life in a state prison. By creating a new crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
