SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Domestic violence; sexual assault. Requires the Department of Criminal Justice Services to establish training standards and a model policy for law-enforcement personnel in handling sexual assault and stalking cases and to establish training standards and model policy and protocols for local and regional sexual assault response teams. Provides that temporary child support may be one of the conditions imposed on a respondent in a family abuse protective order. The bill requires the state police and local law-enforcement agencies to have policies that provide guidance to officers on domestic violence incidents involving law-enforcement officers and repeat offenders. The Department of Social Services is required to establish minimum training requirements on family abuse and domestic violence for child protective services workers and supervisors. The Office of the Executive Secretary of the Supreme Court is required to determine appropriate standards for the approval of education and treatment programs for persons accused of assault and battery against a family or household member and arrange for such programs to be approved by an appropriate entity.
The bill also provides that a respondent to a protective order who commits an assault and battery resulting in serious bodily injury to a person protected by the protective order is guilty of a Class 6 felony. A respondent who violates the protective order by furtively entering the home of any protected party while the party is present or entering and remaining in the home of the protected party until the protected party arrives is guilty of a Class 6 felony. This bill is identical to SB 236.
