Are you certain of your facts?

The first case was real, the second hypothetical and based on a debate on the topic I heard on talk radio a while back.

Up here you have to be a pretty severe child molester in the "highly likely to offend" category before neighbors have to be notified.

I can accept that, but don't forget that rape is a violent crime. This may have been the criteria used by the "against" debater to justify his argument.

P.S. What do you think about continued incarceration of those who've served their full sentences on the grounds that they'll like repeat offend? I believe they can do that here in Arizona for "sex crimes", something about declaring a person mentally ill and a danger. In my opinion it's clearly prior restraint. This one I heard about on radio news while driving to work at least a year ago. Some guy was appealing that the rule shouldn't apply to him because it was passed after he was convict. I believe he lost because the continued incarceration "wasn't punitive" and therefore wasn't a lengthening of his sentence. I have no idea on how to follow up on this to get more details.
