Georgia Lawmaker Pushes for Caylee's Law
July 7, 2011
ATLANTA, Ga. - The Casey Anthony murder trial could make its way into Georgia’s law books after she didn’t report her little girl missing for 31days. A Gwinnett County lawmaker says he wants to make it illegal for a parent not to report a missing child.
The state of Georgia has massive resources to help in child abduction cases as well as for children missing for other reason, but time is critical to success. According to GBI spokesman John Bankhead, if a child is not found in the first 48 hours, the chances of them being found alive are very slim.
In the wake of the Casey Anthony murder trial, many states including Georgia are looking at “Caylee’s Law.” That would make it illegal for a parent not to report a missing child.

In the wake of that verdict, the movement in Georgia is being spearheaded by Gwinnett County lawmaker B.J. Pak, a former federal prosecutor who says he can’t believe the state needs a law such as Caylee’s Law, but it does.
Georgia law says police must report a missing child within two hours of the time they’re notified. But according to Bankhead, the process starts with the parents.
Rep. Pak says he’s not sure yet how long to give parents to report their children missing, but it might depend on the age of the child.

Ralston, David

Thank you for your email generated by change.org advocating for the
creation of "Caylee's law." Like you, I have closely followed the Casey
Anthony trial and am painfully aware of the tragic death of young Caylee
Anthony.
My colleague, State Representative BJ Pak of Gwinnett County, is already
in the process of drafting legislation to address the situation you
described. I look forward to reviewing this bill. My hope is that it
can be written in a way to prevent a heart-breaking scenario like the
one that occurred in Florida from ever occurring in our state.
Thank you for your concern and your email on this matter.
David Ralston, Speaker
Georgia House of Representatives

'Caylee's Law' Gains Traction
By Noel Brown
Updated: 1 day ago
ATLANTA —
A Georgia lawmaker wants limits on how long parents can wait to report a missing child. It's a response to the disappearance of Caylee Anthony.
Georgia is among more than 15 states considering a law that would make it a felony not to report a missing child.
Gwinnett Republican representative BJ Pak is drafting
a version of a bill known nationally as "Caylee's Law". It's named after Casey Anthony's 2-year-old-daughter, whose 2008 disappearance in Florida wasn't reported for a month.
::snipping2::
The law would set limits on how long parents could wait before reporting a missing child to police.
But Tom Crawford with the Georgia Reports says interest could wain before lawmakers have a chance to consider the bill.
"By the time the session actually begins--and they may not be able to take up this bill until next January when the regular session starts
::snipping2::
Currently, there is no time limit on reporting missing children.
Edit to snip article. We can only post the link and partial article.

Dear Monkey King,
Thank you for taking the time to contact my office to share your
position on Caylee's Law. I agree that there is no reason for another
case like this one to hit the courts. A representative in the Georgia
House of Representatives has been working on a bill to be put into
effect to make it a felony for a parent, legal guardian, or caretaker to
not notify law enforcement of the disappearance of a child within 24
hours. I look forward to debating this bill next session.
If I can be of additional assistance, please feel free to contact me. It
is a pleasure to serve you and your community.
Sincerely,
Steve Gooch

GOP lawmaker proposes Caylee's law for Georgia
Posted: Feb 14, 2012 3:56 PM CST Updated: Feb 14, 2012 3:56 PM CST
ATLANTA (AP) - A Republican lawmaker wants to allow prosecutors to bring charges against parents who do not quickly report missing children.
Rep. B.J. Pak of Lilburn filed a bill Tuesday called "Caylee Anthony's Law." It was inspired by the acquittal last year in Florida of Casey Anthony on murder charges.

Georgia Lawmakers Introduce Caylee's Law
By Sasha Horne
Updated: 4 minutes ago
::snipping2::
Reporting a child's disappearance in a timely manner is the goal of what authors are calling "Caylee's Law".
The measure introduced in the House Wednesday would require parents and legal guardians to report a child missing within 18 hours. In cases of accidental death, the reporting window would be 12 hours.
Republican Representative BJ Pak of Lilburn introduced the measure after what he calls an outcry from constituents last year when a jury found Casey Anthony “not-guilty" in her daughter’s death.
“If they refuse to cooperate in locating the child or the body if they fail to report within 18 hours the whereabouts of the child the prosecutors would have an additional tool if the evidence is insufficient to charge them with murder to hold them accountable under this statute,” said Pak.
14 other states including Alabama and Tennessee have introduced similar legislation. Violators could face up to ten years in prison.
