2021 Colorado Code|Title 18 - Criminal Code|Article 3 - Offenses Against the Person|Part 4 - Unlawful Sexual Behavior|§ 18-3-407.9. Forensic Nurse Examiners - Telehealth Program - Creation - Appropriation

  There is created in the division of criminal justice in the department of public safety the forensic nurse examiners telehealth program, referred to in this section as the “program”. Telehealth is an important way to offer medical support, especially in the rural parts of Colorado, from experienced forensic nurse examiners, sexual assault nurse examiners, and other health-care providers. Forensic nurse examiners can collaborate during a forensic medical examination with emergency department nurses and doctors at remote sites in real time regardless of location in the state. This helps increase the access to competent forensic examinations and care for victims of crime.    The general assembly shall appropriate money from the economic recovery and relief cash fund, created in section 24-75-228, as enacted by Senate Bill 21-291, enacted in 2021, to the division of criminal justice in the department of public safety to be used for the programs and purposes described in this section that also conform with the allowable purposes set forth in the federal “American Rescue Plan Act of 2021”, Pub.L. 117-2, as the act may be subsequently amended. The division of criminal justice in the department of public safety may use up to five percent of any money appropriated by the general assembly pursuant to this subsection (2) for development and administrative costs incurred pursuant to this subsection (2).

2021 Colorado Code|Title 18 - Criminal Code|Article 3 - Offenses Against the Person|Part 4 - Unlawful Sexual Behavior|§ 18-3-408. Jury Instruction Prohibited

 In any criminal prosecution under sections 18-3-402 to 18-3-405 , or for attempt or conspiracy to commit any crime under sections 18-3-402 to 18-3-405 , the jury shall not be instructed to examine with caution the testimony of the victim solely because of the nature of the charge, nor shall the jury be instructed that such a charge is easy to make but difficult to defend against, nor shall any similar instruction be given. However, the jury shall be instructed not to allow gender bias or any kind of prejudice based upon gender to influence the decision of the jury.   History. Source: L. 75: Entire part R&RE, p. 631, § 1, effective July 1. L. 90: Entire section amended, p. 925, § 8, effective March 27.    ANNOTATION   Section not unconstitutional. This section does not operate to deprive a defendant of due process of law by prohibiting the exercise of trial court discretion with respect to giving this instruction, nor does it violate the constitutional requirement of separation of powers by interfering with the rule-making power of the Colorado supreme court. People v. Fierro, 199 Colo. 215 , 606 P.2d 1291 (1980).   This section does not violate the constitutional requirement of separation of powers (art. III, Colo. Const.) by interfering with the rule-making power of the court established in § 21 of art. VI, Colo. Const.People v. Estorga, 200 Colo. 78 , 612 P.2d 520 (1980).   Failure to instruct the jury on gender bias was not a “structural defect” or plain error requiring reversal of third degree sexual assault conviction where gender bias was not raised during the trial and the jury was instructed sympathy or prejudice should not influence its decision. People v. Johnson, 870 P.2d 571 (Colo. App. 1993).   Where the case involved a homosexual act and the defendant's theory of the case was consent, omission of a gender bias instruction did not rise to the level of plain error. Defendant erroneously equated gender bias with bias against homosexuals, and the record provided no reason to believe the jury would confuse the two concepts. In addition, the trial court instructed the jury not to allow prejudice to influence its decision. Further, omission of the instruction was not a structural error and did not require reversal because it was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. People v. Hoskay, 87 P.3d 194 (Colo. App. 2003).

2021 Colorado Code|Title 18 - Criminal Code|Article 3 - Offenses Against the Person|Part 4 - Unlawful Sexual Behavior|§ 18-3-408.5. Jury Instruction on Consent - When Required

In a prosecution for a violation of this section, it is an affirmative defense that:   Uncontrollable circumstances prevented the person from complying; and    The person did not contribute to the creation of the circumstances in reckless disregard of the requirement to comply; and    The person complied as soon as the circumstances ceased to exist.       In order to assert the affirmative defense pursuant to this subsection (2), the defendant shall provide notice to the prosecuting attorney as soon as practicable, but not later than thirty days prior to trial, of his or her notice of intent to rely upon the affirmative defense. The notice shall include a description of the uncontrollable circumstance or circumstances and the dates that the uncontrollable circumstances began and ceased to exist in addition to the names and addresses of any witnesses the defendant plans to call to support the affirmative defense. The prosecuting attorney shall advise the defendant of the names and addresses of any additional witnesses who may be called to refute the affirmative defense as soon as practicable after their names become known. Upon the request of the prosecution, the court shall first rule as a matter of law whether the claimed facts and circumstances would, if established, constitute sufficient evidence to support submission to the jury.       [ ] Failure to verify location as a sex offender is an unclassified misdemeanor punishable by a sentence of up to thirty days in the county jail; except that a third or subsequent violation of this section is an unclassified misdemeanor punishable by up to one year in the county jail.    Failure to verify location as a sex offender is not a sexual offense subject to the provisions of sections 16-11.7-104 and 16-11.7-105, C.R.S., and, notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, offenders convicted of a violation of this section are not eligible for probation pursuant to part 2 of article 1.3 of this title.

  The general assembly hereby finds and declares that:   Human trafficking constitutes a serious problem in Colorado and across the nation;    Human trafficking is abhorrent to a civilized society and deserving of the most diligent response from the state;    Human trafficking often involves minors who have been forced into involuntary servitude and commercial sexual activity;    Human trafficking can take many forms but generally includes the use of physical abuse, threats of harm, or fear of other consequences to prevent victims from reporting the activity; and    Human trafficking creates a cycle of violence, impacting victims, families, and communities.       The general assembly further finds and declares that:   Legislation is required to combat this despicable practice, to make it easier to prosecute and punish persons who engage in human trafficking, and to protect the victims; and    The general assembly supports a comprehensive approach to combating human trafficking, which approach includes prevention, protection, prosecution, and partnerships.       Now, therefore, the general assembly joins the federal government and other states around the nation in passing legislation in order to combat human trafficking and protect the victims.     History.
