Jolene of "Jolene's Law" chastises lawmakers

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) -  The inspiration for Jolene’s Law Task Force minces no words over yesterday’s vote in Pierre to end the panel’s work on child sexual abuse.

Jolene Loetcher says there was no substantive discussion or questions before the House State Affairs committee dismantled the task force.

Loetcher believes the action sends a message to victims of child sexual abuse, and their families, that the legislators on the committee just don't care.           

Loetcher says the measure unanimously passed the Senate.
