By initialing below and to the right, I acknowledge that I have read and understand this advisement. Initial California Health & Safety Code section 11369: “You are hereby advised that it is extremely dangerous and deadly to human life to illicitly manufacture, distribute, sell, furnish, administer, or give away any drugs in any form, including real or counterfeit drugs or pills. You can kill someone by engaging in this conduct. All drugs and counterfeit pills are dangerous to human life. These substances alone, or mixed, kill human beings in very small doses. If you illicitly manufacture, distribute, sell, furnish, administer, or give away any real or counterfeit drugs or pills, and that conduct results in the death of a human being, you could be charged with homicide, up to and including the crime of murder, within the meaning of Section 187 of the Penal Code.” Tellez Advisement: I understand that at the end of my sentence for the offense(s) to which I plead guilty/no contest, I may be subject to screening by the State Department of State Hospitals to determine whether I qualify for trial as a sexually violent predator, which could result in my being committed to a secure medical facility indefinitely.

The parties discussed but were unable to agree to a disposition involving a plea to an offense that is not a sexually violent offense.
