Summary

Existing law prohibits the manufacture of controlled substances and the possession of certain precursors of controlled substances with the intent to manufacture those controlled substances. Existing law further provides that any person convicted of violating these provisions, or of an attempt to violate these provisions, as the provisions relate to methamphetamine or phencyclidine, when the crime occurs in a structure where any child under 16 years of age is present or causes a child under 16 years of age to suffer great bodily injury or death, shall be punished by an additional term of imprisonment in the state prison, as specified. This bill would provide that an additional term of imprisonment in the state prison shall be imposed, as specified, for each child under 16 years of age who is present or who suffers great bodily injury. By providing for multiple enhancing allegations to be pled and proved by local prosecutors in some cases, 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.
