Randi McGinn: NM convenience stores required to have two workers present or bullet-resistent enclosure for clerk

Inner Circle member Randi McGinn of Albuquerque, New Mexico, represented the family of a 26 year-old woman who was kidnapped from a convenience store in Hobbs, NM.  It was her 2nd night on the job where she was scheduled to work alone.  She was raped and stabbed 56 times before being dumped in a field.  At the conclusion of her case, Ms. McGinn organized the family to attend and lobby at hearings with state OSHA that eventually resulted in the most stringent rules for convenience stores in nation: either have two workers present at all times, or bullet-resistant enclosure for a single clerk.  There have been no deaths of convenience store clerks in New Mexico since these simple rules went into effect.
