In reply to Jacob.

All depends on the CP charge of conviction.

Something like this is ridiculous. How would these rules apply if the couple was married?

If however your CP charge is for grownups engaging in sexual acts with prepubescents, they should throw the book.

In my world families solve problems within families. We do not need government interference. Ask my daughter and she can confirm it. Her life was nearly destroyed by “government help” and she was the victim. An old saying…you don’t bilge a shipmate (or son or daughter).

This sort of thing started with legislatures and that’s where it has to be fixed. We have too many copycats in the Congress who would like to take pages from the disgraced Sen. McCarthy and his “un-American activities” committee. Various legislators began to add, or rather pump up, the various penalties associated with these laws which themselves are based on fear and ignorance – which is a perfect description for stupidity. All of us should go through the records for the house and the Senate and find who passed and voted on these laws.
When you add in all the family members that are affected by a registrants presence on the Internet as some sort of sex offender or predator, we are a political demographic that accounts for tens of millions of voters. Right now, on the Democratic side of things with all these contenders for the presidential nomination, we should remind these people of just how many votes there leaving on the table if they choose to ignore our issues. We should all keep after them to attend our June conference put on by NARSOL.

I’ve noticed over the years that most rulings favoring registrants are coming out of the federal courts, not the state ones (except a handful from state supreme courts). It’s not hard to figure out why – federal judges and most state supreme court judges are appointed for life, specifically so they would rule according to law, versus politics without fear of getting kicked off the bench for politically unpopular rulings. Superior / criminal court judges are elected and therefore subject to the politics of the moment which, at this time, is hardcore anti-registrant.

The Judges should contact a higher power and explain how some laws are unnecessary. Whether or not it would change anything is doubtful, but it would be on the books somewhere! The Judges maybe could have kept it reasonably, " OK" before the registry took affect as far as sexting, but the communication technology wasn't as popular and useful as it is now!. But also as mentioned above the concent age as far as getting involved sexually from one state to the other doesn't make any since! If a 17 year old boy or girl forest have the ability to know what there are doing, and until the day before his or her 18th birthday. Then it's ok!. But if a boy or girl can go to a different state with a different age of consent like 15 or 16, the 18 year old can have consensual sex. That is most likely what the judges point is. But why isn't the age the same in every state? No response needed! I have often wondered about it that's all!.

so its ok to have sex but not ok to have a picture of it… typical tyrannical Elizabethan era lunacy.. unfortunately you will never see an end to it until you demand an end by force. And even then the lunatics will only give you exactly as much as your force demands and not a stitch more..and even at that Power will be seeking to restore that which it abdicated as soon as possible, so even after be vigilant..POWER never gives of itself willingly and anyone who says other wise is a deranged lunatic or a bad liar..The tree of liberty must be watered.. Our founders understood the machinations of corruption.
Just get the government out of bed rooms all together. End of story. There NEVER should be a law against any consensual act. It takes a real sick twist to determine a “victim” in a “consensual act” …We may not “agree” with somethings but if it is consensual it really isn’t our business to agree or disagree. Our only business is what goes on behind our own closed doors. Thinking you have any right in your neighbors business is what created this mess in the first place.

The girl manufactured child pornography, but is she accountable ? Oops; she’s the victim.. The guy, when they came to arrest him arrested his father too ! Dad’s charge ? Misdemeanor for not reporting his son (Dad took this to trial. Dismissed in mistrial, and lots of publicity). But wait ! Dad loses long time job as the high school band teacher. Tries to sue school but loses. Well, back to the son: He’s on the registry of course. Got violated once too for not telling them he moved…How’s the girl doing ? Don’t know; name kept out of all of this.
