Here in Ohio, in Stark County, we just had 14 people caught for sex trafficking minors, none of which were on the registry.
Victims were as young as 12.
One suspect is part of the Rape Crisis center and another a teacher I believe.
This proves the uselessness of the registry.
It does not prevent crime and it does not protect children and neither do residency restrictions.

Another comment I would like to make is that if you look at the above map, the residency restrictions are the same as being in a Level 1a Prison.
In a Level 1a Prison, you can go work in public for a period of time, but you must return every day to sleep and reside in confinement by the Penal Institution in a restricted area.
The above map makes it clear that offenders with residency restrictions are re-confined or re-imprisoned upon release, just as though they were living back in a prison camp, the only difference is that there is not a barbed wire fence.

I believe I mentioned I live right across the street from children and right in back of a family that has kids. Sure living rights are still “Rights”. As far as this school or library or other ordiences are concerned it sounds like many and much of this is a bit overrated in many ways with this restriction limitation of where a person can stay and it also presents a housing issue for some families.

Different states will use the issue as a type of safety or public safety, At least I’m sure nobody run’s red lights or has a playboy mag in their car out in the open front seat. If one really understand’s, and I don’t even understand all this, its the state and government that want to look good or who slaps fines on this child porno that is on the internet today. Public safety is good but what about social safety type factors. Is it going the way of a type of sex offender colony, I hope not. I believe a lot of this is a money factor if you should ask me.

Nothing wrong with a person watching their back in many of these issues but being intimided and left out in the cold about much of this “vain” type of justice ordeal makes one want to say where is true justice in America for anyone that gets wrapped up in this sex offender or offender drama which is so conceited and vain in many respects. True justice is good if even those that govern know how to govern right.

Were any of the 14 previously convicted of a sex offence? If not they would not be on the registry, and therefore they will say the registry must be working, even though I agree the registry is useless and punitive.
