Jessica's Law

Jessica's Law
From Chickadee, Great Job!! COPS is asking for your support to help pass Jessica's Law, the toughest sex offender law in the nation. Jessica's Law is named in memory of nine-year-old Jessica Lunsford, who was taken from her home in Homosassa, Florida, on February 23, 2005, and found brutally murdered three weeks later. A registered sex offender with an extensive criminal history and outstanding warrants for probation violations confessed to abducting, raping, and burying Jessica alive only 150 yards from her home. With your help we can protect our children from dangerous sexual predators. Please sign the petition today. To: Democratic Governors Association; Republican Governors Association; US Congress; President George W. Bush From: (Your name and email) COPS and I support the Sexual Predator Punishment and Control Act of 2006: Jessica's Law, the toughest sex offender law in the nation. Jessica's Law will: Ensure that all child molesters who molest children under the age of 14 are put into a prison with a mandatory minimum sentence of 15 years or 25 years to life. Closes all loopholes in California’s “one-strike” laws. Eliminate all "good-time" credits for sex offenders ensuring that these sex offenders are required to serve their entire sentence and will not be released for good behavior. Electronically monitor convicted sex offenders for life, if they are ever released from prison, through GPS tracking. Create a 2,000 foot "predator-free" zone around schools and parks to prevent sex offenders from living near where our children learn and play. Sincerely, (Your name) please Sign petition at Url below http://cops.cc/get_involved/petitions/email/jessicas_law_national/
