MADISON, WI (WTAQ) – A law that would protect children from being placed with admitted child abusers in Wisconsin has cleared another hurdle. The so-called ‘Ethan’s Law’ (Senate Bill 24) cleared the Senate Committee on Human Services, Children and Families on a unanimous, bipartisan vote this week.
“When we have children who are neglected or abused, we shouldn’t be subjecting them potentially to greater harm or as great of a risk of harm as what they’ve already experienced,” said State Senator Andre Jacque of De Pere. “This is something that will reduce the risk for children that currently are at great risk and unfortunately in several cases have suffered serious abuse or been killed as a result of those placements.”
