Kentucky's Attorney General's Petition to the U.S. Supreme court on Residency Laws - DENIED

Kentucky's Attorney General's Petition to the U.S. Supreme court on Residency Laws - DENIED

3-8-2010 Washington DC:

Posted at the US Supreme court on the docket for Kentucky v. Baker (09-775) is a note that the high court has DENIED the Kentucky AG's Petition.

It is not suprising that the petition was denied since it was based on the personal opinion of one person and not a mass of Kentucky courts in disagreement with each other.

Such means that Kentucky's residency laws -for the moment- will not be applied retroactively to those convicted before the date of enactment of the residency laws.

Here is what eAdvocate posted on his blog and think about it - murders are dealt with - why is Duncan making such an issue on a case out there?  
 
Does anyone know of a state, which under their murder laws, does not have the death penalty or life without parole, for horrific crimes like the recent one in California? Given that reality, why is Rep. Duncan's legislation needed at all? It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure what is the real purpose of this bill... eAdvocate
 
You see folks, this is nothing but grandstanding and boasting "LOOK AT ME!!!!" Almost every state has laws about the death penalty for someone who murders another person, so this is nothing but a gimmick to make himself look like he's actually doing something!

Sex offender registry changes proposed


Sex offender registry changes proposed

We urge folks to support and lobby New Hampshire lawmakers on behalf of an 11th hour effort to take HB 1628 off the House consent calendar for the March 10 House floor session and retain it in the House for the rest of 2010. The innocuous sounding bill asks the Department of Safety to devise voluntary guidelines for community notification of neighbors when a sex offender moves in. Such notification frequently causes vigilantism. Instead of sending HB 1628 to the Senate, the House would ask the Criminal Justice Committee to deal with its subject matter as part of a comprehensive study of the sex offender internet registry, risk assessment, and community notice.
3-7-2010 New Hampshire:

Editor's note: This is one in an occasional series about state legislation regarding sex offenders.

Newberry's SB2301 Is Ineffective and a Total Waste of Resources

User Rating: / 5
PoorBest 

Senator Dan Newberry wants to put all Level II and III sex offenders on "Electronic Monitoring, (EM). He claims that 300 murders were prevented from a study conducted by FSU. I, and others have been unable to substantiate such a outrageous claim. Someone must be fudging the numbers here.

Newberry further claims that Level II and III of the states sex offender registry are the most dangerous and most likely to re-offend. NOTHING could be further from the TRUTH.
