Texans for the Jessica Lunsford Act
Sign Now
This petition is specifically for the outraged citizens of Texas. If you are tired of watching America's children being raped and slaughtered at the hands of REGISTERED SEX OFFENDERS sign my petition!We need to rise up as citizens against these heinous crimes!
I am calling for Gov. Rick perry and all Texas lawmakers to make The Jessica Lunsford Act LAW! Currently a Texas sex offender can be sentenced from 2 to 25 years for first offense! This gives Texas judges discretion, therefore they can sentence someone to 2 years for aggravated sexual assault on a child! We need the Jessica Lunsford Act which increases the penalty to life in prison or a split sentence of a mandatory 25 year prison term with lifetime supervision by eletronic monitoring.
Our children are our future WE NEED TO PROTECT THEM! Please sign this petition and spread the word so we can make The Jessica Lunsford Act LAW!
The Jessica Lunsford Act
Ш Increase the penalty for lewd and lascivious molestation of a child to life in prison or a split sentence of a mandatory minimum 25-year prison term, followed by lifetime supervision with electronic monitoring.
Ш Increase, from 20 to 30 years, the period of time before a sexual predator is allowed to petition to have the sexual predator designation removed.
Ш Increase sexual predator/offender registration and reporting requirements.
Ш Sexual predators who murder their victims now qualify for the death penalty in capital cases.
Ш Designate failing to re-register as a sexual offender/predator or harboring or assisting a sexual predator/offender a third degree felony.
Ш Require those already convicted of sex crimes to have electronic monitoring for the remainder of their probation.
Ш Require all county misdemeanor probation officials to search the sexual offender registry when a new offender is assigned to them.
Ш Provide more than $11 million in added funding:
o $3 million for technology
o $3.9 million for electronic monitoring
o $3.6 million for prison bed construction
o $1.3 million for data sharing Ш Dangerous Sexual Felony Offender Act. This law signed in 2002 imposes a mandatory minimum sentence of 25 years to life for those twice convicted of several sexual offenses, including sexual battery, promoting a sexual performance by a child or lewd or lascivious behavior in the presence of an elder or disabled person. This mandatory minimum applies to those convicted even a single time of these crimes, if the offense incurred serious injury or involved multiple victims, among other factors.
Ш The Victims Freedom Act - Signed in 2002, this law makes it easier for victims of sexual violence to obtain injunctions against their attackers, including when their attackers are due to be released from prison. Violators of these injunctions will face criminal contempt penalties and possible felony prosecution for aggravated stalking.
Ш Sexual Victims Access to Services Act - Also signed in 2002, this law mandates a surcharge of $151 be paid by every person who pleads guilty or no contest to such crimes as battery and sexual assault. The funds are distributed to rape crisis centers around the state, to provide caring and appropriate treatment
