Georgia updates child predator law

Today Georgia has an updated law that makes it easier for police to track down Internet child sex predators.

Governor Sonny Perdue signed additions to a previous law today and they're effective immediately.

The measure allows state authorities to subpoena cell phone records, video games, and other devices from Internet service providers.

The devices were added because they could have potentially incriminating photos and text messages.
