Bradford Introduces AB 1438
It’s only been a week and Assemblymember Bradford has already hit the ground running with the intrduction of AB 1438, an act to amend Section 11166 of the Penal Code, relating to child abuse reporting.
AB 1438 improves upon current legislation requiring any person to report to a peace officer a known or suspected instance of a child being the victim of sexual abuse, and would make a failure to report punishable by imprisonment in a county jail for a period of 6 months or a fine of up to $1,000, or by both.
