Today the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals denied the appeal of an out of state registrant who was kept on Florida’s public registry long after he moved out of the state. The appeal (and underlying Trial Court decision) were not based on the merits of an “out of state” challenge, but on a technicality. The […] The post 11th Circuit reminds us of Statute of Limi […]

CALL TO ACTION: Patch continues printing names of persons on sex offense registries October 13, 2020
Notation: I would normally provide a link to the headlines and publications I reference, but to do so would continue displaying the abhorrent lists of registrants’ names and addresses on Patch, and so I am not providing links. By Sandy . . . It was 2017 when NARSOL launched a formal protest against Patch for their practice of printing “red-dot”…

Fact-checking registered sex offender information October 7, 2020
By Sandy . . . WFMJ21 has reported on how the Trumbull County Sheriff’s Department has conducted a random, county-wide check on its residents who are on Ohio’s sex offense registry.

ENOUGH with the hate, already October 5, 2020

We’ve all seen the ads, the memes, the commentaries bashing “those people.” No matter what your particular persuasion is, there’s some group out there telling you that you’re all washed up, totally wrong, and that all of “your people” are haters of the worst kind and are destroying life as we know it.

Originally published 10/1/2020 at Reason; reprinted in full here with permission. By Jacob Sullum . . .
