Not only that but some state's sex offenders aren't really what I would call sex offenders. In some states an 18 year old male can be convicted of a sex offense for having sex with his 16 year old girlfriend. Not that I condone the behavior but I hardly find that to be a case of a rabid sex offender unless forceable sex was involved.
When I was in KC and I heard a radio show interviewing some guy. He was talking about how he was arrested and convicted if rape long ago. Turns out the victim was his 16 y/o girl friend. He was 18. The girls father reported him. Oh, I almost forgot...............they have been married for 50+ years now. Under this law he would have to register as a sex offender.
Can anyone say Scarlet Letter? Star of David?
