Convicted sexual predators will be imprisoned or tracked by satellite for the rest of their lives under a new law signed by Florida Governor Jeb Bush.
The state law, prompted by the recent murders of two young girls, requires sentences of 25 years to life in prison for sexual predators convicted of molesting children less than 12 years of age.
Convicts serving less than life would wear a tracking device linked to global positioning systems until their deaths.
...The law also bolsters registration requirements, requires satellite tracking of existing offenders until their probation period is over, and makes it a felony to harbour a sexual offender.
