QUESTION:
I was recently charged with a PC653m(b) complaint. I suffer from Bipolar Disorder Type 1 and my diagnosis is partially to blame for any of my harassing behaviors.
ANSWER:
PC 653m(b) is a misdemeanor punishable by a minimum of 0 and maximum of 180 days in county jail. That charge alone is not a sex crime and does not require any type of sex offender registration. Regardless, you’ll want to be represented by an attorney.
