Gabby Petito, Mandy Mayne families on Utah Capitol Hill as Senate passes domestic violence bill
Senate Bill 117 passed unanimously Monday and now heads to the House. The bill would require all of the state's police agencies conduct what's called lethality assessments when responding to a call of domestic violence. It will also require officers to ask a series of questions about fear of violence or past threats.
"Had this lethality assessment ... I know in Gabby's case, if it had been used, I believe she would still be here today," added Schmidt.
