Looking for Plaintiffs – International Megan's Law Challenge
Dear Leaders in Sex Offender Policy:
If you’re getting this message it’s because I believe you can help me. A number of lawyers are working with me to lay the foundations for a legal challenge to International Megan’s Law if it is signed into law. We expect H.R. 515 to pass on a suspension vote in the House this Monday and be sent to President Obama’s desk.
We’re looking for ideal plaintiffs and we need your help to find people who meet one of these criteria:
- Does not have a passport, but wants one
- Has a passport about to expire
- Travels internationally a number of times per year (especially for work)
- Has been harassed while traveling in or out of the US based on registration status
If you think you fit any of these four categories, please write to me with the following information:
- Name
- Age
- Age at time of offense
- Offense(s)
- Which of the four (4) categories you fit into
- Would you be willing to be a name plaintiff to challenge this law?
- State you live in
All responses will be treated as confidential by the Washington Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights & Urban Affairs and Human Rights Defense Center.
Time is of the essence. Please respond soon and share this with your networks.
Warmly yours,

I was charge with a sex offense 15 years ago, my children are of age now and want to do the right thing and get this removed off my record, my oldest son Derrick was manipulated by his mother and to this day he can’t stand his mother for this. he feels I was stolen away from him and he was used as a weapon for his mothers revenge. his mother had originally left me for someone else but when I had moved on to another relationship things went down hill quick. Derrick has been to the police and the da but no one has helped him. I feel I seem to always get the bad end of the deal and good things seem to pass me by. .I am a hard worker, I got out of jail and started my own business driving a truck, I own 2 semi’s and trailers but I keep getting slammed with repairs. Sometimes I want to give up on life but I keep struggling everyday. The first year after getting out of jail I made 140,000. I thought that was ok since I lost everything. Is there any help for a person who really didn’t commit the crime that they were charged with and has a obsessed ex wife trying to make me suffer for not being with her?
I have decided that I am mailing my passport to Chris Smith’s office. He wants to control its use so greatly? He can have it.

Done. Passed.
The legal challenges will be endless. The first time somebody is wrongly identified. Megans law the mist restrictive law in the world does not work. For that sole reason, it should not be extended. Also the resources to control this law intentionally do not exist. Jv
