Caylee's laws

An article on USAToday.com this mornings mentioning the maybe dozen states which have some version of Florida's “Caylee's Law” introduced since Casey Anthony's acquittal in the death of her daughter last July, among them HB 299 and SB 203 in Ohio, and HB 27, HB 29, and SB 12 in Kentucky.

USAToday reported a survey it had done showed legislators in at least 25 states have introduced or pledged to introduce versions of what has been dubbed Caylee's Law., with 12 of them already having bills introduced, but none, as yet, having passed and becoming law. The National Conference of State Legislatures lists eight states, along with Florida, as of July, having such legislation.
