“For so many years I was overwhelmed and caught up in the injustices in my own case,” she said. “When I was finally able to start advocating, I can’t tell you how freeing and how healing that was for me.”

CRIMINAL INJUSTICE: A domestic abuse survivor imprisoned for life for the murder of her abuser trib.al/RGQvqsl
This is huge. Oklahoma — a state with some of the highest domestic violence in the country — just signed a bill into law to reduce sentences for women who defend themselves against an abuser. Only CA, IL, and NY have similar legislation.

WE GOT IT DONE! It is now LAW!!!
WE GOT IT DONE! It is now LAW!!!
NEW: Oklahoma just passed a new law: It gives a new chance at release to domestic violence survivors who were incarcerated for their response to the abuse. Here's why it's a big deal, from @LVikkiml who talked to people who are waiting for help: boltsmag.org/oklahoma-survi…
My latest for @boltsmag looks at the twists & turns of the Oklahoma Survivors’ Act, which gives incarcerated abuse survivors a new chance at freedom: boltsmag.org/oklahoma-survi…
The Oklahoma Survivors’ Act gives incarcerated survivors of domestic violence a new chance at freedom, reducing sentences for people whose convictions stemmed from their abuse. NEW in @boltsmag from @LVikkiml: boltsmag.org/oklahoma-survi…
Would be so cool if someone like @LastWeekTonight would pick up this story. First republican state to pass such reform!!! Oklahoma Gives Incarcerated Survivors of Domestic Violence A New Chance at Freedom boltsmag.org/oklahoma-survi…
The Survivor’s Act protects victims of domestic violence. My colleagues and I thought it was vital to get this passed. My full statement on the passage of this legislation: shar.es/agtcdo
I am pleased that the Senate has passed the amended version of SB1835, the Oklahoma Survivors' Act. The new language embodies principles of justice and compassion while maintaining a steadfast commitment to accountability and due process. #SB1835 #CJR #RightOnCrime @Sen_GregTreat

Treat said there were two substantive changes included in SB1835, the first being shifting “substantially related” as the standard for evidence to “clear and convincing.”
With a vote of 86-4, The Oklahoma Survivors Act passed the House today. I’m proud to have co-authored this important piece of legislation. Oklahoma is #1 in domestic violence in the country and this bill is a huge win for those who have been victimized in our state. 1/
I offer a sincere thanks to the victims and advocates who have worked everyday this session to ensure SB1835 becomes law in Oklahoma! 2/2
.@KTULNews has learned the Oklahoma Survivors' Act has been signed into law by @GovStitt, allowing domestic violence survivors leniency in sentencing if abuse was a factor in their crime. Here's the story of a woman who may qualify for sentencing relief. ktul.com/news/local/leg…
The Oklahoma Survivors Justice Act, SB 1835, was signed into law today. This legislation is retroactive and includes those serving extreme sentences. A veto didn’t stop us, we kept fighting, and in 90 days we will be filing and supporting cases to bring survivors home.
