Rep. Travaris “Tray” McCurdy

A Central Florida lawmaker has filed a measure that would make juvenile confessions inadmissible if obtained by “deception.”

Rep. Travaris “Tray” McCurdy, D-Orlando, filed HB 109 September 15. The bill faces hearings in the Criminal Justice & Public Safety Subcommittee and Judiciary before reaching the House floor. So far, there is no Senate companion. The 60-day session convenes January 11.
