The intent of the bill is that when those crimes are connected in the same series of events, not separated by years or separated at all. I'm certainly open to removing that word. In the case of Kimberly Proctor, it took a period of four or five days, but the events were ongoing and interconnected, so it's events that are interconnected.
I am certainly open to removing that word so that there would be no misinterpretation such as that you've expressed.
