In re GEORGE F., a Person Coming
Under the Juvenile Court Law.

THE PEOPLE,

        Plaintiff and Respondent,            (Super. Ct. No. J235534)

        v.

GEORGE F.,

        Defendant and Appellant.


        APPEAL from an order of the Superior Court of San Diego County, Browder A.

Willis III, Judge. Affirmed.

        Sheila O'Conner, by appointment of the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and

Appellant.

        Kamala D. Harris, Attorney General, Gerald A. Engler, Chief Assistant Attorney

General, Julie L. Garland, Assistant Attorney General, Charles C. Ragland and Teresa

Torreblanca, Deputy Attorneys General, for Plaintiff and Respondent.
       A petition was filed with the juvenile court under Welfare and Institutions Code

section 602 alleging that George F. committed a lewd and lascivious act upon a child

under the age of 14 (Pen. Code,1 § 288, subd. (a); count 1), and that George willfully

annoyed and molested a child under the age of 18. (§ 647.6, subd. (a); count 2.) The

People offered to dismiss count 1 if George admitted to count 2. George admitted to

count 2 and the juvenile court found a factual basis for that admission. The court then

granted the People's motion to dismiss count 1, declared George a ward of the court, and

ordered him to juvenile probation on various terms and conditions.

       George appeals contending that the conditions of his probation restricting his use

of electronics or requiring the submission of those electronics to search are (1) invalid

under People v. Lent (1975) 15 Cal.3d 481 (Lent) and (2) unconstitutionally overbroad.

We disagree.

                                          FACTS

       The juvenile court found the following factual basis for George's admission:

          "[O]n or about January 4th of 2014, George did willfully, unlawfully
          annoy, [and] molest [a child], who was six years old at the time by
          laying on top of her and kissing her, and when he laid on top of her,
          he touched her with his body in violation of Penal Code section
          647.6(a), a misdemeanor."

       At George's disposition hearing, the probation department recommended the

following probation conditions relevant to this appeal:




1      All further statutory references are to the Penal Code unless otherwise specified.
                                             2

"43. The minor shall not knowingly access phone/internet services
or subscribers including 1-900 numbers, which he or she knows, or

          device such as a computer, electronic notepad, or cell phone, by a
          responsible adult over the age of 21 who is aware that the minor is
          on probation, is aware of the minor's charges, and is aware of the
          limits on the minor's computer use. The probation officer shall
          provide the minor and the minor's parent/guardian with a written
          notice that defines what are legitimate school, work or personal uses.

          "48. The minor is not to use a computer for any purpose other than
          school related assignments. The minor is to be supervised when
          using a computer in the common area of his/her residence or in a

          "49. The minor shall not knowingly utilize the password protect

          "50. The minor's 4th Amendment waiver extends to any electronic
          device, such as a computer, electronic notepad, or cell phone, which
          the minor uses or to which the minor has access. The minor's 4th
          Amendment waiver also extends to any remote storage of any files
          or data which the minor knowingly uses or to which the minor has
          access. The minor agrees to submit to a search of any electronic
          device, such as a computer, electronic notepad, or cell phone, at any
          time without a warrant by any law enforcement officer, including a
          probation officer."

       The People did not oppose striking conditions 47 and 48. The court struck those

conditions, and imposed all others recommended. George objected to conditions 17, 19,

and 20 for lack of "nexus" to the crime, and to conditions 21 and 22 for both lack of

nexus to the crime and overbreadth under the Fourth Amendment. In objecting to

condition 22, defense counsel said, "At this point we are not in a position to agree to a

blanket fourth-amendment waiver of consent."

                                      DISCUSSION

       George contends that the conditions of his probation restricting his use of

electronics or requiring the submission of those electronics to search are (1) invalid under

                                             5
Lent, and (2) unconstitutionally overbroad. (Lent, supra, 15 Cal.3d 481; In re Sheena K.

(2007) 40 Cal.4th 875.) We review the Lent challenge for abuse of discretion, and the

constitutional challenge de novo. (People v. Welch (1993) 5 Cal.4th 228, 233.)

       As a preliminary matter, respondent argues that George forfeited his right to

appeal the conditions to which he did not object, or object on the same grounds as he

appeals, at the disposition hearing. We need not address whether George forfeited his

claims, because we find the probation conditions valid on the merits of this appeal.

                                      Legal Principals

       The court may impose on a juvenile probationer "any and all reasonable

conditions that it may determine fitting and proper to the end that justice may be done

and the reformation and rehabilitation of the ward enhanced." (Welf. & Inst. Code, §

730, subd. (b).) Under Lent, "a condition of probation which requires or forbids conduct

which is not itself criminal is valid if that conduct is reasonably related to the crime of

which the defendant was convicted or to future criminality." (Lent, supra, 15 Cal.3d at

p. 486.) "[A] probation condition is unconstitutionally overbroad if it imposes limitations

on the probationer's constitutional rights and it is not closely or narrowly tailored and

reasonably related to the compelling state interest in reformation and rehabilitation."

(People v. Forrest (2015) 237 Cal.App.4th 1074, 1080.) A condition that "is reasonably

related to the supervision of defendant" is reasonably related "to his rehabilitation and

potential future criminality." (People v. Olguin (2008) 45 Cal.4th 375, 380 (Olguin).)

       Despite the holding in Olguin, supra, 45 Cal.4th 375, in In re Erica R. (2015) 240

Cal.App.4th 907 (Erica R.), the First District held that the imposition of probation

                                              6
conditions which required the minor to submit electronic devices and passwords to search

were not valid where that minor's offense was possession of ecstasy. (Id. at p. 914.) The

First District echoed their ruling in Erica R. in In re J.B. (2015) 242 Cal.App.4th 749,

757-759 (J.B.), where they held Olguin did not justify a similar probation condition

where the minor's offense was petty theft. We decline to follow either case for reasons

specified below.

                                          Analysis

       By molesting a six-year-old girl, George demonstrated a sexual attraction to

children. In exercising its discretion, a trial court could reasonably infer an increased risk

that George would seek to possess child pornography or contact potential victims as the

result of the attraction he demonstrated. Possessing child pornography and contacting

children with the intent to commit sexual offense are criminal acts; therefore, restricting

George's access to children and sexually explicit content, in light of the risks inferred

from the nature of his offense, relates to future criminality. (§§ 311.11, 288.3.) The

restrictions to that effect are uncontested in this case: conditions 16, 43, 45 and 46 all

forbid George from accessing sexually explicit materials, and conditions 34 and 35 forbid

George from contacting the victim and associating with children under the age of 10

respectively.

       The internet can be used to download child pornography, and facilitate

associations with children. The contested conditions (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 49, 50) in

summary, require George to get permission to use a computer, disclose his passwords to

law enforcement, refrain from obscuring his identity while online, and submit his

                                              7
electronic devices to search. These contested conditions reasonably relate to the

probation department's supervision of George, because compliance with these conditions

provides the probation department with the practical information necessary to enforce the

uncontested conditions (16, 34, 35, 43, 45, 46). Because Olguin provided that probation

conditions reasonably related to a probationer's supervision are reasonably related to the

probationer's future criminality and rehabilitation by extension, and George's conditions

are reasonably related to his supervision, George's conditions are valid under Lent, supra,

15 Cal.3d 481 and constitutional. (Olguin, supra, 45 Cal.4th at p. 380; Lent, supra, at

p. 486.)

       George argues that we should not read the rule from our Supreme Court's decision

in Olguin, supra, 45 Cal.4th 375 to apply to his case, because the First District has

rejected similar probation conditions in petty theft and drug possession cases, despite the

holding in Olguin. (See, J.B., supra, 242 Cal.App.4th 749; Erica R., supra, 240

Cal.App.4th 907.) In doing so, the First District noted that Olguin involved an adult

probationer, and unlike adults, juveniles cannot choose to be incarcerated rather than

submit to probation and its conditions. (J.B., supra, at p. 756, citing Erica R., supra, at

p. 914.) The court noted further, that a broad reading of Olguin could undermine the

limitations prescribed in Lent, supra, 15 Cal.3d 481. (J.B., supra, at p. 757.)

       Essential to George's rehabilitation, is deterring him from reoffending. The

conditions the trial court imposed on George do just that, by making sure George knows

that if he strays, his probation officers will find out. The wisdom in Olguin, supra, 45

Cal.4th 375, is that effective supervision of a probationer deters, and is therefore related

                                              8
to, future criminality. Thus, upholding probation conditions through Olguin does not

undermine the limits imposed by Lent, supra, 15 Cal.3d 481.

       Furthermore, the notion a juvenile's inability to refuse probation would decrease

the permissible breadth of conditions like those in this case, is inconsistent with the

parental role of the court and its broader discretion for probationary sentencing in

juvenile matters. (In re Antonio R. (2000) 78 Cal.App.4th 937, 941.) Our Supreme Court

has said, " ' "[because] juvenile probation is not . . . an act of leniency in lieu of statutory

punishment . . . a condition of probation that would be unconstitutional or otherwise

improper for an adult probationer may be permissible for a minor under the supervision

of the juvenile court." ' " (In re Sheena K., supra, 40 Cal.4th at p. 889.) In other words,

the court may impose broader probation conditions on juveniles than it may adults,

because for juveniles, probation is not an alternative to their punishment, it is their

punishment.

       In any event, the instant case is distinguishable from Erica R., supra, 240

Cal.App.4th 907 and J.B., supra, 242 Cal.App.4th 749. The connection between child

molestation and digital child pornography or online sexual material is less attenuated than

that between electronic communication and the offenses in drug possession or theft cases.

In turn, conditions which facilitate the supervision of a sex offender's electronics are

more reasonably related to future criminality than those which facilitate the supervision

of thieves' and drug possessors' electronics. With that in mind, we affirm the lower

court's order imposing conditions of George's probation which restrict his use and allow

the search of electronics.
