Good news in Boston this week. The May 12, 2006, issue of the Boston Globe reports that the state legislature's Public Safety Committee is recommending that a statewide notification system be created to notify victims when their previous abuser is released from custody.
In addition, the committee's report called for the tracking of abusers with electronic monitoring bracelets as another method to protect domestic violence victims.
The committee members said they hope to follow up the report with new legislation filed in the coming months.
