Here are some of the most rediculous things that our law makers here in Washington State are trying to pass. These are no help to us if we are trying to keep offenders off the streets and to keep our families safe from harm.


2009 House Bill 2371 (concerning incentive time for offenders who successfully complete evidence-based programming)
Introduced by Rep. Jeannie Darneille, (D-Tacoma) (D) on April 16, 2009, authorizes an offender to receive thirty days of positive incentive time which will allow the offender to be released thirty days earlier than the original release date sentence. Positive incentive time can only be earned if, while in the custody of the department of corrections for the current offense, the offender meets certain requirements. Requires the department of corrections to recalculate and reschedule the expected release dates for each qualified offender on or before August 1, 2009. The act applies retroactively to eligible offenders serving terms of total confinement in a state correctional facility as of August 1, 2009.


This bill actually passed and it was a bill that requires more supervision of voilent offenders.



2009 Senate Bill 6162 (Relating to criminal justice)
Introduced by Sen. Margarita Prentice, (D-Renton) (D) on April 14, 2009, by title and introductory section only.
Referred to the Senate Ways & Means Committee on April 14, 2009.
Amendment offered in the Senate on April 24, 2009, to clarify that offenders who have a current conviction for a serious violent offense must be supervised by the Department of Corrections regardless of the offender's risk to reoffend. The amendment passed in the Senate by voice vote on April 24, 2009.


This bill regarding sex offenders passed, but how many will actually comply and then again how do we get them to comply. I say micro chip them and map them.


2009 House Bill 2035 (requiring information necessary on registered sex and kidnapping offenders)
Introduced by Rep. Brad Klippert, (R) (R) on February 6, 2009, requires any person required to register as a kidnapping offender or a sex offender to provide certain authorities with certain information when registering, including electronic mail address or any other internet communication name or identity information. Also includes, among other items, any names used for instant messaging, chat, or social networking names or identities.
Passed in the House (97 to 0) on March 3, 2009. Received in the Senate on March 5, 2009.
Passed in the Senate (47 to 0) on April 16, 2009.


Here is one that should have passed, but the cost for doing this would increase our states budget. I dont mind if it means that it is keeping our families safer.


2009 House Bill 1834 (regarding the registration of level III sex offenders)

Introduced by Rep. Jan Angel, (R - Port Orchard) (R) on January 30, 2009, requiring the electronic monitoring of all registered sex offenders who are classified as risk level III, have registered as homeless or transient, or have a prior conviction for failure to register as a sex offender.



2009 Senate Bill 5718 (Concerning the commitment of sexually violent predators)

Introduced by Sen. Debbie Regala (D) on January 29, 2009, provides that a petition for may be filed alleging that a person is a sexually violent predator and stating sufficient facts to support such allegations, and sets forth procedures, conditions, and definitions for the commitment of sexually violent predators . Passed in the Senate (49 to 0) on April 22, 2009.


These are just a few of the laws in our state that are in need of either being booted out or put into place. I have my oppinions on our lovely laws. I think they are afraid to be harsh on those that need it and we slap to many on the hands and let them recommitt these offenses.

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE MURDER OF MIA REID IN FRONT OF HER 10 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER PLEASE READ


Hello to all of my loved ones,(this is from her friend Tia)
I am writing this email in hopes of your support on a very important matter that plagues our community. Domestic Violence.I attended high school with a young lady by the name of Mia Reid, who was killed by her ex fiance' in the early morning hours in front of her 10 yr old daughter.Mia spent most of her life in Ga., but the unfortunate event happened in Baton Rouge, La.I am begging that this email gets forwarded to anyone you know in the Louisiana area. Here is what Mia's mother wrote on "Justice For Mia" petition site."If you can, please attend the court proceedings on May 19th @ 10am in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. This is to replace the court date which was cancelled March 25th. Mia's murderer's family fills up the courtroom; they are taking advantage of the fact that Mia's family lives in Georgia. The lack of any family and friends in the courtroom makes a sad statement to the judge, the prosecutor and to the murderer and his family. It maybe the reason the judge was willing to allow him to go free while he awaits his trial. Perhaps the judge thought that no one cares. "Maybe if this gets around to the right hands, Mia will have many supporters who are not going to allow this injustice to continue. Please forward to activist groups and supporters for families against domestic violence.Here is a picture of Mia and her daughter in happier times, along with the article outlining her untimely death. What if this was your daughter, sister, friend, niece, granddaughter, or simply.....you? Would you want the word out?http://www.2theadvocate.com/news/27323759.html
