It's been six months since Preston Lord was attacked at a Halloween party in the East Valley. “When people say I can’t imagine — they're probably right – we have been living the unimaginable for six months," said Melissa Ciconte, Lord's stepmom. As ABC15 previously reported, Lord died a couple days after the attack. During a walk on Sunday to honor the late teen, Ciconte announced that the City of Chandler was going to proclaim September 23 as Preston Lord Day.
The first law would be to change the current social host ordinance which includes civil penalties for people whose homes are used to serve alcohol to minors. According to a spokesperson for the City of Chandler, the new ordinance could include higher fines or criminal penalties. Chandler city leaders will also look at banning minors from owning brass knuckles. A similar push to ban brass knuckles at the state-level failed. However, local municipalities can create their own laws.
