Tried to post an interesting article but was denied for copyright stuff. FR's own Links and Excerpts list says of USA Today; "They will only allow the posting of titles and links." Anyway...Here's a title and a link.

EXCLUSIVE: Washington state moves to remove community notification, restrictions for sex offenders

https://thepostmillennial.com/exclusive-washington-state-moves-to-remove-community-notification-restrictions-for-sex-offenders

Excerpt:

The Post Millennial has learned that Washington’s Sex Offender Policy Board is working with the state’s Sentencing Guideline Commission in an attempt to roll back restrictions and sentence guidelines for sex offenders, claiming “these laws actually undermine public safety, the exact opposite of what lawmakers and the public so confidently assume they accomplish.”

This is on the heels of community blowback from Washington Democrats including Governor Jay Inslee and Attorney General Bob Ferguson, releasing level 3 sex offenders, those deemed the “worst of the worst” and most likely to re-offend from high-security facilities to halfway houses in unsuspecting neighborhoods.

Additionally, at the end of the last legislative session, Democrat Governor Jay Inslee line-item vetoed a provision that would have informed neighbors if such an individual was to be placed in their community.

.....A draft of the recommendations for the Model Penal Code obtained by The Post Millennial from a Sept. 21 meeting reveals that the entities are claiming that “those convicted of a sex offense have some of the lowest recidivism rates compared to individuals convicted of a non-sex offense” adding “This is also true for individuals convicted of sex offenses against children.” The document did not cite the pertinent data.

The entities also argued against “Community notification”, claiming that public access to the registry and community notification rarely leads individuals to take meaningful precautions to protect themselves.”

“These systems create a false sense of security and divert attention from more significant sexual dangers, increasing risk to the public” and the entities argued for “background checks” instead.

Additionally, the entities claimed that removing the restrictions would serve as a cost savings. “Registration laws are expensive to implement. Including registry management, GPS monitoring, website technology, etc.” are “Estimated to cost several millions of dollars per year to run and maintain a registry.”

In a state that has been known for being lax on crime and supporting defunding the police, the entities claimed that the cost “Reduces available police resources for responding to emergencies and investigating crime.”

According to the entities, “Unintended consequences” could be “Homelessness resulting from restricted housing” such as “Overbroad limits on employment and residency due to misunderstanding information from public registries.”

Rather than informing neighbors of a dangerous predator in their midst, the entities advocated for sex offense registries to be “…reserved exclusively for the use of law enforcement” and that “…community notifications should be prohibited.”

.....She added that the entities are advocating to completely eliminate the sex offender registry.

.....37 attorneys general from across the US previously signed a letter opposing similar rollbacks of sex offender regulations.

.....When asked why the push to roll back the restrictions, Morgan said, “Washington State was the first state in America to ever require a sex offender registry and public notice about sex offenders and the rest of the country, including the red states, all imitated Washington.”

“I still think that there’s a lot of bitterness in that community that grew...and the idea of thinking that if they can start to roll it back in Washington...just like the idea started here, (if) they can start to roll it back here, they can start to roll it back everywhere else.”
