What it does
Existing law provides that any person who by promises, threats, violence, or by any device or scheme, causes, induces, persuades, or encourages another person to become a prostitute is guilty of pandering, a felony. In this regard, People v. Wagner (2009) 170 Cal.App.4th 499, has held that this provision does not apply to a situation in which a defendant has induced or encouraged a woman currently engaged in prostitution to commence working for him or her.
