For release on June 24, 2014     DA ROSEN URGES PASSAGE OF AUDRIE’S LAW     A statement from Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen regarding the passage of ‘Audrie’s Law’ out of a state legislative committee today:
  “I am thankful that the Assembly Public Safety Committee unanimously passed Senate Bill 838 ‘Audrie’s Law’ out of committee this morning.”
“Audrie’s Law modernizes the consequences for those who sexually assault intoxicated, incapacitated, and handicapped victims. The Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office stands alongside the Pott Family and State Sen. Jim Beall in their efforts to create positive and reasonable changes from the pain of Audrie’s tragedy. I am hopeful that the entire California Legislature will keep the 15-year-old girl’s memory close in their hearts and her legacy in mind when Audrie’s Law is presented for a final vote.”
