Summary

Existing law, the Child Abuse and Neglect Reporting Act, requires a mandated reporter, as defined, to report whenever he or she, in his or her professional capacity or within the scope of his or her employment, has knowledge of or observes a child whom the mandated reporter knows or reasonably suspects has been the victim of child abuse or neglect, including sexual abuse. Under existing law, sexual abuse is reportable if it involves unlawful sexual intercourse between a person 21 years of age or older with a minor who is under 16 years of age. Existing law makes sexual abuse reportable if any person participates in an act of sodomy or oral copulation with a person who is under 18 years of age. This bill would instead make instances of sodomy or oral copulation with a minor reportable as sexual abuse only if the conduct involves either a person over 21 years of age or a minor under 16 years of age.
