CA SB1060

Expands the definition of pandering under Penal Code Section 266i to include inducing or encouraging a person to prostitute themselves, regardless of whether they have previously engaged in prostitution.

Explicitly abrogates the holding in People v. Wagner (2009) 170 Cal.App.4th 499, which had limited the statute's application to situations where defendants induced currently engaged prostitutes to work for them.

Maintains existing penalties for pandering as a felony: 3, 4, or 6 years imprisonment for adults, with enhanced penalties of 3-6 or 3-8 years for minors over and under 16 years old respectively.

Clarifies legislative intent that the expanded definition applies to anyone induced to prostitute themselves for the first time or subsequently.

Eliminates state reimbursement requirements to local agencies under Article XIII B of the California Constitution, designating this as a definitional change to an existing crime.
