Senator Tarr, Representative Wong Back 'Three Strikes' Bill Targeting Pedophiles

Senate Minority Leader Bruce Tarr and State Representative Donald Wong were guests on WRKO's Michelle McPhee radio show yesterday, where they called for the passage of a "Three Strikes" law targetting sex offenders who prey on young children. The bill, which is up for a hearing before the Judiciary Committee tomorrow, would impose a life sentence without any possibility of parole for anyone convicted of three sex offenses against a minor.

Senator Tarr and Representative Wong also called in to RushRadio 1200's "Jeff Katz" show this morning to raise public awareness of the issue and the upcoming hearing. Be sure to check out the Michelle McPhee interview and the Jeff Katz podcast.
