(a) When any person is liable to be prosecuted under § 5-26-401, he or she may be indicted, tried, and convicted in:
(1) The county where the violation of § 5-26-401 originally occurred;
(2) Any county where he or she might be apprehended; or
(3) The county where the injured spouse or child resided at the time of the filing of the indictment or information.
(b) Subdivisions (a)(2) and (3) of this section apply because each successive day the offense continues is declared to be a violation of § 5-26-401 not only in the county where the offense originally occurred but in any county where the offender or the injured spouse or child resides while the course of conduct condemned in § 5-26-401 continues.
