In anything approaching a same world, that rule would be quickly dumped as blatantly Unconstitutional. However, I am afraid that this will be one more major erosion of rights "for the children."

Yah, and I want an "Abuse Of Power" registry on the same terms, and I know a good list of initial nominees.

I agree. Many states adopted the law allowing the child victims of pedophiles to testify via video. I know this is hard for a child but at the same time what part of "right to face one's accuser" did the courts not understand?

Just wait till the day when law abiding citizens are mustered into court and confronted by a Clutch Cargo-like video voiceover of Officer Smith saying "yes your honor fill in the blank committed that crime".

Look at what was done with RICO against people who just wanted to protest the murder of children.
