The transcript discusses a new Tennessee legislation requiring drunk drivers who kill a parent or caregiver to pay child support for the victims' children until they turn 18. This law, known as Bentley's Law, originated from a case in Missouri and was inspired by the tragic death of Nicholas Gallinger, a Chattanooga police officer.
