I'm here with Joe Petito in CrimeCon in Las Vegas, and Joe has some big news. 
They just successfully lobbied for a lethality assessment law in the state of New York. 
It is the third state that they've lobbied to add this new law. 
Joe's going to explain it real quick. 
>> So, yes, the lethality assessment, which was uh written by Senator Lee Webb and uh Representative Rollison, who really championed this bill, to be honest with you. 
But, it's for the state of New York. It's the third one that we've done. 
Uh Utah passed it. Uh Florida has passed it. 
And now you have New York that just passed, awaiting on the governor's signature. 
And what it is, it's a series of questions that um police will ask on all domestic violence calls to figure out if a person's in a lethal situation or not. 
And based on their answers, they'll either, you know, get them on you know, on the phone right away with an advocate or give them information on where to go when they're ready to talk to an advocate. 
And that's these this law has shown to help reduce domestic violence homicides by 50% or more. 
So, it every state should be doing this. Uh I think under 10 states so far. 
I think nine use it in the country so far. And I guess we have 41 more to go.
