Navigation Bill to limit depositions of alleged child sexual assault victims moves in the Senate
Sen. Danny Burgess
A proposal to bar criminal defense attorneys from deposing alleged child sexual assault victims — without a showing of good cause — is gaining steam in the Florida Senate.
Sen. Danny Burgess, a Zephyrhills Republican and Army JAG officer, tacked the proposal onto SB 510, “Victim’s Right to Candor in Criminal Proceedings,” on April 19.
