A sexual abuse victim gave heart-wrenching testimony to state lawmakers, begging them at a committee hearing to fix what she called \u201ca terrible law\u201d by California Democrats <\/a>that lets elderly criminals qualify for early parole hearing.<\/p>\n Lawmakers are facing public outrage after the law paved way for approving the release of serial child rapist David Allen Funston<\/a> in February. Funston reportedly kidnapped and molested at least eight children \u2014 seven girls and one boy.<\/p>\n One of those victims appeared Tuesday in front of lawmakers, who later advanced a bill<\/a> that would limit who would be eligible for an elderly parole hearing to those ages 65 and above. The \u201cterrible law\u201d had loosened that requirement to ages 50 and over.<\/p>\n The victim, who was identified only as Terena, recounted to legislators \u201cone of the worst days of my life\u201d through many tears and tissues.<\/p>\n
