Kyra's Law Protects Children in Custody Cases

A landmark bill named Kyra’s Law has passed the state Legislature, prioritizing child safety above all in custody and visitation cases — a direct response to the tragic 2016 murder of two-year-old Kyra Franchetti by her father. Spearheaded by Kyra’s mother, Jacqueline Franchetti, the legislation closes legal loopholes and mandates judicial training and funding to prevent future tragedies. After intense debate and compromise among lawmakers, court officials, and legal experts, the bill now awaits Governor Hochul’s signature — a critical step toward ensuring no child’s life is endangered by the system meant to protect them.
