Disappearance of Suzanne Lyall

(

... that the disappearance of Suzanne Lyall from the SUNY Albany campus 20 years ago today led to changes in federal and state laws on how campus police departments handle major investigations?

- ALT1:... that ...? Source: "In 2003 former President George W. Bush signed into law "Suzanne's Law," requiring police to notify the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) when someone between 18 and 21 is reported missing, as part of the national "Amber Alert" bill. Previously police were only required to report missing persons under the age of 18. Any person under the age of 21 is considered a missing child." Center for Hope (the organization started by Lyall's parents)
  The state's new Campus Safety Act, signed into law this month by Gov. George E. Pataki, requires the prompt investigation of violent felonies on college campuses. The law also requires colleges to file prompt reports on missing students., The New York Times, April 18, 1999

Comment: Another anniversary hook; I would like to get this on the March 2 Main Page; Queue 5 looks like a good place.

New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. Hook refs verified and cited inline. One fair-use image in article. QPQ done. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 20:21, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
