Bianca's Law, effective Sept. 1, was passed to expand prosecution against parents who break custody orders and take children outside of Texas.
Deana Herbert found her daughter nearly 30 years later after it was revealed her ex-husband took her to Mexico under false pretenses.Twenty-eight years after a little girl was abducted by her father and raised secretly in Mexico, a new state law is named in her honor.
In August 2021, the mother and daughter were reunited in a small Mexican police station where she snapped pictures of Bianca sitting with a translator looking at her baby books.But the Hollywood ending they were hoping for never happened. "I don't believe anyone should be able to abduct a child and run out the clock, and this helps ensure that that doesn't happen," Vasut said.The law removes the statute of limitations for prosecuting someone charged with interfering with a child custody order if they take the child out of the state.The bill passed during its inaugural filing in the state legislature - almost unheard of in Texas.
