So they haven’t really even made a ruling Other than just ruling on the joint motion. We need to keep an eye on Indiana because on paper, it had a fairly lenient policy for removing some people. However, as we know from recent court cases, the state was not offering that relief not only to out-of-state offenders but also to Indiana offenders who had left and then come back. At least as best as I can remember.! If that is the case and you have the state acknowledging ex post facto, then this could be very important as it could give some of us another landing spot that’s less expensive than some of the current ones like Vermont.

So I guess we have what we have known all along, it is punishment and all these jurisdictions pushing the limits on more and more laws of punishment are finally starting to fall like a dam with a leak.

However, again it seems to apply to JUST that one person. Very few if any blanket rulings coming down.
