NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.776
Thank you nearly a year after her death.

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:02.780 --> 00:00:04.820
The family of Mariam Abdulwahab is

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:04.820 --> 00:00:07.538
working to make sure what happened to her.

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:07.540 --> 00:00:09.240
Doesn't happen to anyone else.

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:09.240 --> 00:00:10.915
The Atlanta City Council unanimously

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:10.915 --> 00:00:12.590
approved a new resolution urging

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:12.640 --> 00:00:14.000
the Georgia General Assembly

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:15.830
to adopt Mariam's law. The resolution

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:15.830 --> 00:00:17.740
hopes to help expand restrictions

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:17.740 --> 00:00:18.992
for current sex offenders.

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:18.992 --> 00:00:21.284
Now this comes nearly a year after

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:21.284 --> 00:00:23.024
Mariam Abdullah's kidnapping and murder

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:23.024 --> 00:00:25.558
at the hands of her accused killer,

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:25.560 --> 00:00:26.272
DeMarcus Brinkley.

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:26.272 --> 00:00:28.408
Court records show Brinkley spent seven

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:28.408 --> 00:00:30.458
years in jail for sexual assault.

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:30.460 --> 00:00:31.372
And child molestation,

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:31.372 --> 00:00:33.500
but due to a backlog at the

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:33.568 --> 00:00:35.578
time he wasn't listed on the

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:35.578 --> 00:00:36.918
GBI Sex Offender Registry,

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:38.942
an oversight that Al Diaz friends

NOTE Confidence: 0.84990954

00:00:38.942 --> 00:00:41.119
and family believe cost her her life.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87690485

00:00:42.450 --> 00:00:44.640
Initially, if there's a backlog and

NOTE Confidence: 0.87690485

00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:47.478
they're not going to get to these people,

NOTE Confidence: 0.87690485

00:00:47.480 --> 00:00:49.535
we're suggesting that until they

NOTE Confidence: 0.87690485

00:00:49.535 --> 00:00:51.942
are assigned a level of offense

NOTE Confidence: 0.87690485

00:00:51.942 --> 00:00:54.654
as a one or a two, then that ankle

NOTE Confidence: 0.87690485

00:00:54.654 --> 00:00:56.444
monitoring should not come off.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:00:57.530 --> 00:00:58.922
If Georgia's General Assembly

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:00:58.922 --> 00:01:00.662
were to pass Mario's law,

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:00.670 --> 00:01:02.824
registered sex offenders would have an

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:02.824 --> 00:01:05.209
identifier placed on their state issued ID.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:05.210 --> 00:01:06.775
Your drivers licenses that would

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:06.775 --> 00:01:08.968
also be required to wear an ankle

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:08.968 --> 00:01:10.678
monitor until they can go before

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:10.678 --> 00:01:12.300
the sexual offender Registration

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:12.300 --> 00:01:14.276
Review Board for classification.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:14.280 --> 00:01:16.040
Lastly, any sex offenders classified

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:16.040 --> 00:01:18.549
as a Level 3 predator would have

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:18.549 --> 00:01:20.589
to wear their ankle monitors for

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:20.589 --> 00:01:22.309
the duration of their parole.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:22.310 --> 00:01:24.530
Meanwhile, 27 year old Marcus Brinkley

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:24.530 --> 00:01:27.487
will stand trial in October for her death.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:27.490 --> 00:01:29.240
He faces charges of murder,

NOTE Confidence: 0.8731673

00:01:29.240 --> 00:01:31.538
kidnapping and other charges as well.
