New registry of people with 2+ protective orders & automatically notify partners

Background

Legally require that any individual with two or more Domestic Violence Protection Orders or Stalking Protection Orders be placed on a new monitored registry. This registry ensures that future partners & child services are notified, enhancing safety, accountability, and prevention of repeated abuse.

Additional details

Repeat offenders can harm others, even after protective orders. Inspired by laws like Clare’s and Sarah’s, we believe those with two or more protective orders should be placed on a monitored list and future partners and Child Services should automatically receive a disclosure. We believe this would reduce repeat offending, protect future partners and children, and enable earlier intervention.
