When setting bail for someone arrested for child abuse, stalking, elderly abuse, or domestic violence crimes, the magistrate must carefully review the facts and consider the defendant's danger to others and flight risk before deciding if bail is appropriate and how much it should be.

Penalty: Violation

It is illegal to pretend to be someone else, fake being a government employee, pretend to be a law enforcement officer, or falsely claim to have a disability—all with intent to defraud or injure another person. It is also illegal to falsely claim to be a military member or veteran by wearing unearned medals or rank. Base violation is a Class B misdemeanor (up to 6 months jail, $500 fine), but can be enhanced to Class A misdemeanor for certain types of impersonation, such as pretending to be a law enforcement officer while acting like one.

Penalty: Class B misdemeanor; 6 months; fine up to $500
