Senator Muse reports: SB 1143 will allow stakeholders from across the state to join forces to study the effectiveness of current intervention strategies and explore new strategies for 'intervention before escalation' of such violence.
Unfortunately, there have been several domestic violence incidents since the deaths of NeShante' and 2-year old Chloe, and several of these tragedies have occurred in Prince George's County. Other victims include Tareeka Jones and Jalisa Walls-Harris (March 2016) and Gladys Tordil (May 2016).
As a community, we're going to have to work hard to address the tough issues that are tearing families apart. It is my hope that SB 1143 will bring advocates and experts from across the state around the table so that together, we can figure out how to address the problem.
