SALEM â Members of the House Judiciary Committee dusted off a seldom-used rule this week to force a hearing for Baileyâs Bill.
Officially named Senate Bill 649, Baileyâs Bill increases penalties for criminal sexual contact with an underage victim if the offender is the victimâs teacher. Currently, a coach convicted of sexual abuse in the third degree receives harsher penalties than a teacher who commits the exact same crime. The legislation is named for Weston-McEwen High School student Bailey Munck, who testified on March 25 to the Oregon Senateâs judiciary committee, telling of sexual abuse in 2019 during a volleyball road trip by Andrew DeYoe, an English teacher and scorekeeper for the volleyball team.
