English term or phrase: HIV-specific criminal enforcement

HIV criminalization is a term used to describe statutes that either criminalize otherwise legal conduct or that
increase the penalties for illegal conduct based upon a person’s HIV-positive status. California has four HIV-specific
criminal laws, and one non-HIV-specific criminal law that criminalizes exposure to any communicable disease.

These individuals were involved in 156 separate HIV-specific incidents, which made up 13% of the HIV-specific criminal incidents overall. An incident can be defined as one set of circumstances which may give rise to a series of contacts with law enforcement during arrest, charge, conviction, and post-conviction proceedings.

Overall, slightly over half of all *HIV-specific criminal enforcement* occurred in Los Angeles County.
