California Bills to Speed Up Kidnapping Response

The state Assembly of California has unanimously approved three bills aimed at speeding up law enforcement response when a kidnapping is reported.
 
The bills approved Friday were backed by Maurice Dubois, whose 14-year-old daughter, Amber, was murdered last year by a convicted sex offender.
 
AB33 supports uniform guidelines on how police should respond to missing persons reports. A companion measure, AB34, requires the state's Violent Crime Information Center to send information about a reported abduction to a national tracking program within two hours; local law enforcement agencies also would face the same deadline to report to the state. A third bill, AB1022, creates the position of a missing persons coordinator in the Justice Department.
