Petition text:
The new law will state that if a person has had two physicians or psychiatrists who have indicated they are mentally unable to care for a child, they are not allowed to parent more children. They will have their own child removed from their home, and are never able to have them returned.

These evaluations need to be done within a month apart and clarify why this person is not capable of taking care of a child. A criminal court and a jury by the individual’s peers will then review the case and make the final decision.

When an abuser has been found guilty for violent abuse they are then forced to register for life, and are never able to be left alone with a child under the age of 18 years.

A child abuser found guilty serves minimum of 10 years for a child case not deceased, 25 years for a child case that has permanent physical damage, and 50 years for a child case that involves death of a child. In none of these cases is there a possibility of parole.

A child abuser found guilty of an internet sex crime involving an child is never is allowed access to a computer hooked up to Internet access.

A child abuser that has been found guilty of violent abuse must not reside within 500 feet of a park, daycare facility, school, or any functions involving children, and at no time should they go to these places for visiting purposes.

The abuser that is found guilty will receive mental evaluation as well as a weekly counseling appointment that MUST be kept.

In the event where a person or persons witnesses a child abuse case and does not report it to the authorities within 8 hours of the incident they can be convicted of 5 years. After release they will then receive counseling for 5 years for child neglect and abuse nature.
