(CAMBRIDGE CITY) - Judges and prosecutors will have more control over bail for sexually violent predators since Governor Mitch Daniels signed the bill known as “Tarra’s Law.”
It was the slaying of 16-year-old Tarra Pickett in Cambridge City on May 21, 2007 that caused State Representative Phil Pflum to sponsor the bill, so there could be no more automatic setting of bail when sexually violent predators are accused of another sex crime.
According to Indiana law, a sexually violent predator is a person who suffers from a mental abnormality or personality disorder that makes the individual likely to repeatedly commit sex offenses.
