two interesting developments regarding crime

Below please find news of two interesting developments re crime. Please feel free to email me any feedback re the below.

1. HB383 - PENDING LEGISLATION RE PARENTAL ACCOUNTABILITY
Trish Clay, a friend of CRNA-CC from the Palmer-Calhoun nhood, also in the second district, reports that this legislation is making progress. An article in the Times-Picayune (page A-17 on Sun 5/24/09) report that the Parental Accountability Legislation proposed by Rep. Walker Hines (and fostered by Major Bruce Little, the NOPD 2nd District Commander), passed House Committee and is scheduled for debate on Fri 5/29.

2. NEW ONLINE SERVICE TO HEAR EMERGENCY POLICE RADIO LIVE!
www.projectnola.com is offering live access to live radio broadcast police radio, ultimately of the JSPO, NOPD, State Troop B and other New Orleans metro area police departments, sheriff's offices, and emergency services. The site is developing this channel in effort to help keep locals aware of crimes in progress, active dangerous threats, and suspicious activity. Particularly enlightening is the guide to Police Signal Codes. Check it out! I've only heard JPSO live so far.
