TO:	Honorable Aaron Pena, Chair, House Committee on Criminal Jurisprudence
FROM:	John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:	SB563 by Ogden (Relating to assistance by the attorney general in the prosecution of certain offenses involving the unlawful appropriation or misapplication of state property or unlawful conduct in certain state-funded facilities; providing a criminal penalty.) ,As Engrossed

The provision of the bill that is the subject of this analysis would amend the Penal Code by making punishable as a felony of the third degree the engaging in sexual contact, sexual intercourse, or deviate sexual intercourse with a juvenile offender detained in or committed to a correctional facility the operation of which is financed primarily with state funds.   

A third degree felony is punishable by imprisonment in the institutional division for any term of not more than 10 years or less than 2 years, or, in addition to confinement, a fine not to exceed $10,000.

For this analysis it is assumed that the number of offenders convicted under this statute would not result in a significant impact on the programs and workload of state corrections agencies or on the demand for resources and services of those agencies.
