Justice for Heather

My dear daughter Heather McGuire tried to find help time and time again through the judicial system to free herself from a violent career criminal Philip Gilberti. Gilberti's criminal history stretches back decades. Assault, drugs, steroids -- seven years in a Nevada prison for the attempted murder of a woman from a previous relationship. This man was allowed to walk out of a Rockville Maryland courtroom with absolutely no consequences for breaking a protective order twice during the weekend before he murdered my wonderful daughter. We need much tougher laws to protect us against violent repeat offenders like Philip Gilberti. I believe that the crime of stalking should be amended in Maryland from a misdemeanor crime to a felonious offense.
