ODESSA, Texas State Representative Brooks Landgraf s bill has passed out of the house with a vote of 145-1.
The bill will bolster Monica s law, which was named after an Odessa mother who was murdered by her ex-boyfriend.
“Last session, we passed Monica’s Law to create the Texas Protective Order Registry to include protective orders issued as a result of domestic violence,” Landgraf said. “The registry has been a huge success, so we want to improve the tool further with HB 2702 by including protective orders for victims of sexual assault or abuse, indecent assault, stalking, and human trafficking in the database as well.”
