Currently some residents on the North Dakoto sex offense registry can petition the courts for removal from the state’s offender registry after 15 years.  A bill has been filed that would allow someone classified at a low-risk level to petition after seven years.

Columnist Rob Port with the Forum News Service says, “We ought to be retiring the entire concept of offender registries.  They don’t work.

“Not only do registries fail to address the true nature of the threat, they may actually make things worse.”
