Logan Federico’s dad says criminals have become 'more important' than victims, pushes repeat offender registry
Stephen Federico urged federal lawmakers to pass Logan's Law, which would include a violent crime registry bill, at a South Carolina roundtable with AG Todd Blanche.
Stephen Federico, father of the murdered 22-year-old Logan Federico, is advocating for “Logan’s Law,” a legislative proposal aimed at creating a public database for repeat violent offenders and improving communication among law enforcement agencies. Federico argues that loopholes in the current system allowed his daughter’s accused killer, who had a lengthy criminal record, to remain free. The bill, introduced by U.S. Rep. Russell Fry and the late Sen. Lindsey Graham, seeks to prevent such tragedies by increasing accountability for habitual criminals.
