Baton Rouge / louisianaradionetwork.com May 25, 2021 | 4:41 PM A House bill to study domestic violence fatalities in the state continues to make its way through the legislature. Louisiana Coalition Against Domestic Violence Executive Director Mariah Wineski said House Bill 452 creates a multidisciplinary team within the health department to review a victim’s records. “And then based on those reviews they will identify systemic issues or patterns in those homicides, and then make some data-driven recommendations to hopefully help prevent future homicides,” said Wineski. The review will pinpoint missed opportunities for intervention and potential areas for reform. Wineski said Louisiana has one of the highest rates of domestic violence fatalities in the nation and the formation of a review team is overdue.
