Companies or entities can pay Google to have their sites at the top of the search results. But, Google always seems to place negative content at the top. Information on this topic is suppressed by Google so it’s hard to find. But here’s something:

In reply to Detroit. All - this post got hijacked. This is not about Michigan

Dustin;
You are only creating rumors. The courts have already ruled that Michigan must treat out of state offenses the same as in state offenses. Michigan cannot apply a different set of rules to persons who were required to register in another state. If registrants move to Michigan to get off of the registry, then so be it.
If you are not required to register in Michigan and remain in a state where you are required to register, then getting off of the registry isn’t that important to you.

The court ruled that placing registrants on the registry whose offence date preceded July 1, 2011 is unconstitutional. Any person who is on the registry today is on in violation of the U.S. Constitution. Michigan is forcing them to be removed one by one through the petition process. Removal is mandatory and less than 5% have applied and have been removed. The remaining 95% are most likely unaware that they are eligible for removal. Does I only removed the named plaintiffs. Michigan has a petition process and is forcing eligible registrants to use this petition process to be removed. They have recently changed the petition to reflect the recent court decisions. I emailed a copy of the new petition to FAC and asked them to post it. You can obtain a copy of the petition by googling “Michigan sex offender 406 a”.
The remaining registrants may be eligible for monetary compensation for being on the registry after the court ruled keeping them on is unconstitutional. To see if they are seeking monetary damages in Does II, you have to contact the Oliver Law Group in Troy, Michigan.
The problem with determining if a person is required to register is that there are so many different dates reflecting the various changes in the law. It is difficult for even an experienced criminal defense attorney to determine if a person is required to register. Read the court decisions at aclumich.org and you see that even the judge was confused.
The 2 most important dates are October 15, 1995 and July 1, 2011. All offenders whose offense date preceded October 15, 1995 are permanently off of the registry except for a very small number who were in prison or on parole or probation on or after October 15, 1995. All persons whose offense date falls between October 15, 1995 and July 1, 2011 will either be removed from the registry or receive a date certain to be removed. These persons eligible for removal who are still on the registry may be eligible for monetary compensation.

In reply to Detroit. Has Michigan removed anyone from its registry under this procedure?

In reply to TheTruthHurts. How is it your understanding that FDLE pays Google a fee? Based on what?

The federal court suspended most registration violations, except for persons who refused to register. Due to covid, the federal judge suspended enforcement of the registry in a separate order.
Read all of the info at aclumich.org.
Persons who relocate to Michigan whose offense date predates July 1, 2011, can move to Michigan and apply to be removed from the registry today. You can download a copy of the petition on Michigan’s website. I have emailed all of this to FAC and asked them to post it on this website.

Jacob:
Read the posts. Does I took all of the named plaintiffs off of the registry. Yes, the judge did order them removed. Does II was filed to enforce Does I for the remainder of 1994-2012 registrants. We expect a final order in 2021 to take the remainder off of the registry.
Very few prosecutors are filing FTR’s in Michigan anyway due to the registry being up in the air.

In reply to JZ.

With Regard to The Google Search of a ‘Person Forced to Register’, it is my understanding that the FDLE pays Google a fee so that an algorithmic sequence can be created so that all ‘persons forced to register’ in Florida are ‘TAGGED’ in Name Searches,…SO, THAT is the Real Problem of Being on The FLori-Duh Registry……I have not looked in to the Legality of why the FDLE is able to have GOOGLE do this…….SO, the real problem is GOOGLE!….Please comment!

In reply to June f Renick.

This dilemma of being kept in jail waiting for hearings to start up is becoming a problem nationwide.

Jacksonville, FL had started back with jury trials, only to close down again because of the virus. We feel for you.
