Governor Tony Evers Official Portrait
Governor Tony Evers signed a new law inspired by the tragic murder of Lily Peters, expanding Wisconsin’s Amber Alert system.
The law allows police to issue alerts for missing children who don’t meet the standard criteria for an Amber Alert.
Named after Prince McCree, a Milwaukee boy found dead hours after being reported missing, the law also draws from Lily Peters’ disappearance on her way home from her aunt’s house.
