Thanks for the article, Susan. Always appreciate links like that.

Longo’s been saying that for quite a while now. Unfortunately, it’s not exactly what people want to hear. All those pesky facts getting in the way of perfectly good opinions…..

In reply to susan rudolph. Will the Supreme Court even take the state of Pennsylvania's case? If they do it could really change all registries in all 50 states. Also there is the famous author of the psychology piece saying his article was wrong, WOW!!!

In reply to David.

I agree this should be in Florida as well!! They place ALL offenders in the same category regardless of what level they were convicted of. Majority of Northern states have a tier system and it works! In Florida they are very fast with placing an offender on internet/FDLE but very slow (upto a year) to omit an offender’s information from ALL internet sites!! So, that they can possibly have their life back again and NOT be judged by ignorant neighbors etc..!!
SORNA is a joke & should have never been a thought! We should have one made for Murderers (MORNA) – just a thought! I’m sure most citizens would like to know if they reside near a convicted murderer?!

I would like to see this happen in Florida.

I may be missing something, but I’m really hoping all these state decisions lead to one of the states missing out on SORNA funds and one of the *states* suing the feds about having to abide by an unconstitutional law in order to get their money.

Wouldn’t that be something.

Though I do get the feeling that my understanding of that mechanic isn’t quite 100%
