Stumbo To File Monitoring Bill
House Speaker Greg Stumbo says, by Thursday, he will likely pre-file a bill that will allow judges to order an electronic monitoring device, such as an ankle bracelet, for those who have a domestic violence protective order against them. The device would allow law enforcement to track the location of an offender, while the endangered could wear a device that would alert them if the perpetrartor was nearby. Diana Ross, the mother of Amanda Ross, will join Stumbo in a news conference Thursday to tout the bill.
