Twenty years ago, hysteria swept through the media over "hunger in America."
Giving false information when a child is missing and later found seriously harmed or dead, as in the case of Orlando mother Casey Anthony, should be bumped up from a misdemeanor to a felony, law enforcement officers told state senators Monday.
However, those same officers cautioned that declaring a specific time frame for caregivers to report a child missing to law enforcement, as proposed by a number of Caylees Law bills now before the Florida Senate, could have unintended consequences.
Few organizations have the guts to get in the face of the Sierra Club.
