Uhlig563652<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If convicted he could very well be out of a job as a family violence offender could be in violation of the Lautenberg Amendment.<br /><br />Once your daughter (I assume your daughter) is released from the hospital, normally you'd expect to see him moved into the barracks for a mandatory cooling off period initially up to 72 hours - it can go longer however, that's the typical cooling off period where there is no contact with way from her to him and from him to her.<br /><br />He would also have to go to the family advocacy center to assess the in-depth needs concerning proximity to family as well as counseling needs.Response by CSM Michael J.
