This is really good. Petaluma has a lot of reference to Polly Klaas, some of which makes me very uncomfortable because of the ways in which that incident was used to create bad legislation and bad policy based on very very bad data. It's good to see her sisters working to fix that. It sucks that we as a society have laid this on them.
Polly Klaas’s murder fueled the 90s crime panic. Her sisters fear ‘we’re repeating history’
