A state lawmaker proposed legislation that would require anyone convicted of accessory to murder to serve at least 85% of their sentence before being eligible for parole.

The bill, Lauria and Ashley's Law, is named after Lauria Bible and Ashley Freeman, two teenage girls from Welch who were kidnapped and murdered in 1999.

The only living suspect in the case, Ronnie Busick, was released in 2023 after serving 2 years of his 10 year sentence for being an accessory to murder.
