Maddy summaryThis bill creates a statewide "purple alert system" to rapidly notify the public when a domestic violence victim (who has voluntarily opted in) goes missing. It requires law enforcement to report such cases to a designated state coordinator, who then activates the alert through participating media, highway message signs, and other channels. The system mandates strict privacy protections (including HIPAA compliance) and includes specific protocols for verifying cases, issuing alerts, and terminating them once the victim is found or the case resolves. The alert system directly affects participating domestic violence victims, law enforcement agencies, and media entities that volunteer to broadcast the alerts.
Authorizes certain persons confined in institutions operated by the department of corrections and community supervision to apply for a sentence reduction.
