Governor Signs Chelsea’s Law In San Diego
California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has signed legislation that will lock up some convicted sex offenders for life.
“Chelsea’s Law” is named for 17-year-old Chelsea King, who was murdered in San Diego in February. A convicted child molester was sentenced to life in prison without parole less than three months later for killing King and 14-year-old Amber Dubois.
