AG J.B. Van Hollen must not have liked a program of grants to
local police and communities in the 2013-2015 budget to monitor people under
restraining orders with GPS technology. It looks like someone is soft on
domestic abuse and harassment.
AP: DOJ officials say they never handed out any grants. They say the budget's statutory language doesn't give judges the authority to make GPS monitoring part of restraining orders.
Really? Or was it something else…
Ah, J.B. didn't like it. Got it. Aren't Republicans the ones determined to carry out laws passed by the legislature no matter what?The Justice Department has asked Walker in its 2015-17 budget request to eliminate the program.
