Gang Activity Charges in Anaheim
California law has several ways to prosecute gang activity. First, an individual may be convicted of being an active member of a criminal street gang, also known as “street terrorism.” Second, gang-related crimes subject a person to the possibility of special sentencing enhancements. Per California penal code 186.22, gang activity may be alleged it:
- You actively participated in a gang;
- You knew that its members engage in a pattern of gang activity;
- You willfully promoted, furthered or assisted the gang in felonious conduct.
If the prosecutor alleges a special gang enhancement, the underlying felony will ordinarily elevate to a serious felony making the offense applicable to California’s three strike laws.
