         Plaintiff and Respondent,                                   Super. Ct. No. C1362888)

         v.

JUAN LAZARO,

         Defendant and Appellant.



         Defendant Juan Lazaro appeals from an order entered after he pleaded no contest
to carrying a concealed stolen firearm on his person (Pen. Code, § 25400, subd. (a)(2)),
possession of an item with the intent to commit vandalism (Pen. Code, § 594.2), and
giving a false name to a peace officer (Pen. Code, § 148.9). The trial court suspended
imposition of sentence and placed defendant on probation for three years subject to
various terms and conditions. On appeal, defendant challenges two probation conditions
on constitutional grounds. We modify the order. As modified, the order is affirmed.


                                                      I. Discussion1
         The trial court imposed the following probation conditions as set forth in the
probation report: “8. The defendant shall not possess or consume alcohol or illegal

1
        The underlying facts are not part of the appellate record. The parties stipulated
that there was a factual basis for the plea based on the reports in the court’s file.
controlled substances or knowingly go to places where alcohol is the primary item of
sale. [¶] . . . [¶] 24. The defendant shall not use or possess any graffiti-related materials
or engage in any illegal graffiti-related activity, as directed by the Probation Officer.”
Defendant contends that these probation conditions are unconstitutionally vague, because
he could be carrying a friend’s backpack without knowing that it contained alcohol or a
can of spray paint. Thus, he requests that the probation conditions be modified to include
a knowledge requirement.
       “In granting probation, courts have broad discretion to impose conditions to foster
rehabilitation and to protect public safety pursuant to Penal Code section 1203.1.
[Citations.]” (People v. Carbajal (1995) 10 Cal.4th 1114, 1120-1121.) However, a
probation condition may be challenged on the grounds that it is unconstitutionally vague.
(People v. Lopez (1998) 66 Cal.App.4th 615, 630.) Although defendant failed to object
on constitutional grounds to these conditions, we may consider his facial, constitutional
challenges because they present purely questions of law. (In re Sheena K. (2007) 40
Cal.4th 875, 888 (Sheena K.) Accordingly, our review of these probation conditions is de
novo. (Id. at p. 889.)
       In examining whether a probation condition is void for vagueness, courts have
considered whether the condition is “ ‘sufficiently precise for the probationer to know
what is required of him [or her] . . . .’ ” (Sheena K., supra, 40 Cal.4th at p. 890, quoting
People v. Reinertson (1986) 178 Cal.App.3d 320, 324-325.) “[T]he underpinning of a
vagueness challenge is the due process concept of ‘fair warning.’ ” (Sheena K., at p. 890.)
       The Attorney General concedes that these probation conditions must be modified
to include a knowledge requirement. Thus, we will modify the conditions to add a
scienter requirement consistent with the reasoning of People v. Rodriguez (2013) 222
Cal.App.4th 578, 594.)

                                         II. Disposition
       The order granting probation is modified. Condition No. 8 shall state: “The
defendant shall not knowingly possess or consume alcohol or illegal controlled
substances or knowingly go to places where alcohol is the primary item of sale.”
Condition No. 24 shall state: “The defendant shall not knowingly use or possess any
graffiti-related materials or engage in any illegal graffiti-related activity, as directed by
the Probation Officer.”
