AB 1810: Destroying Victims Rights and Public Safety
Repeal AB 1810 and send it back to legislatures for vital revisions to protect public safety and victims rights.
Why is this important?
In the words of San Diego County DA Summer Stephan: "The current language in AB 1810 allows mental health treatment pre-trial diversion for every type of crime including serial rape and murder. The bill allows no exclusion for the type of crime committed. No exclusion for prior criminal history an diversion instead of prosecution that would be available for those with almost every kind of mental health diagnosis. This means paraphilia, often diagnosed as the mental health issue for serial rapists and depression, often associated with mass school shooting murders are not excluded." Read paragraph 13 of AB 1810 yourself. What kind of CA will our children inherit from us? Summer Stephan went on to call AB 1810 a "Dangerous social experiment" and said that there are few serious felony offenses where the mental health of the defendant is not called into question.
