Committee has
helped introduce
domestic
violence bill
By Rocky Wilson
Wallowa County Chieftain
Wallowa County District
Attorney Mona Williams
has joined the Oregon Dis-
trict Attorneys Association’s
board of directors.
Asked to fill the position
by the 36 district attorneys
in the state, Williams accept-
ed and on Jan. 1 began a six-
year term. Under the board’s
protocol, the Wallowa Coun-
ty DA will advance to the po-
sition of board president by
the end of her term.
Williams, the county’s
district attorney for the past
eight years, says the pos-
sibility of sitting on such a
board would not have been
possible before November
2012 when her workload as
the county’s sole prosecutor
was eased by the naming of
a deputy district attorney, a
role currently filled by Re-
becca Frolander.
“It is an honor to be
asked,” says Williams, who
says she now will be required
to spend at least two days in
Salem each month dealing
with state-level political is-
sues.
On at least one day each
month, says Williams, she

ture.
The future of that pro-
posed bill is unknown, but
Williams describes it as a
nine-point measure related
to the topic of domestic vio-
lence.
Williams explains that the
bill aims to clarify multiple
points in existing law.
Among its other effects,
the proposed legislation
would prohibit defendants
who are in custody in domes-
tic violence and sex offense
cases from contacting vic-
tims by phone, letter, and/or
e-mail while they are in jail.
