BEING BRANDI'S VOICE. Taking a Stand against Domestic Violence
Why this petition matters
BRANDI'S LAW
My niece Brandi Brooker was murdered on October 13, 2020 at the hands of her abuser.
I would like to change the law and the punishment that the abuser is required to serve. As of right now, when a person is arrested on a domestic violence charge, they can bond out the next morning. The victim has no time to get stuff together to leave that abuser. The abuser is only madder that they went to jail and now have a record. I AM ASKING FOR THIS CHANGE.
AUTOMATIC 30 DAYS IN JAIL NO BOND..
If victims are given this 30 days to get things packed and in order they might not stay with the abuser. Its hard when you have no where to go but the streets. There is help out there but not instant help. Having these monsters in jail for 30 days will give the victim time needed to seek out help.
Victims who have stayed or went back was out of fear. It's easier to look fear in the face everyday than to have to watch your back everywhere you go. If victims were given at least 30 days they would feel safer making the move. They would know where their abuser was.
So if you would kindly sign my petition, we can begin to help one person at a time.
Ler us keep BEING BRANDI'S VOICE.
Please keep an eye on your neighbors, friends, and family. Don't worry about butting in or being the nosey neighbor............ IF YOU SEE OR HEAR SOMETHING SAY SOMETHING.
