Caylee's Law

Sen. Nicholas J. Sacco of New Jersey proposed a law that would deem it a Criminal offence to not reprot a child missing within 24 hours of discovery. This is in response to they Casey Anthony trial where Casey Anthony was found not guilty of murdering her child and ordered to serve about as much time as she already had for lying to police and the court. Had the law been in place at the time of the trial, Casey Anthony would have gotten as much as 3 more years in jail and up to $40,000 in fines.
