SB 687

Under current law, if a prisoner throws or expels blood, semen, vomit, saliva,

urine, feces, or other bodily substance at or toward an officer or other person in the

prison or facility, a court may order the prisoner to undergo testing for communicable

diseases if there is probable cause to believe that there was potential for transmitting

a communicable disease to the victim. This bill allows a court to require such testing

for any criminal defendant who throws or expels blood, semen, vomit, saliva, urine,

feces, or other bodily substance at or toward a public safety worker or a prosecutor.
