An article in this morning’s Enquirer is about a bill to be introduced in Kentucky which would “toughen that state’s laws on prosecuting & tracking sex offenders… (by) requiring they be outfitted with ankle bracelets and tracked using satellite & global positioning technology. The most serious offenders would also be placed on life-time parole. Patrick Crowley’s Enquirer N.Ky. Politics blog has more information there.
Senate bill 980, referred to in one of our previous posts, is still in the Judiciary Committee up in Washington, but an Associated Press article this morning is reporting that the Iowa Civil Liberties Union has petitioned the U.S.Supreme Court to have that state’s sex offender residency law overturned. Sioux City’s Online Journal has more background information on that development.
