A warrant needs to be signed and dated by a judge for a particular date of search. And remember, an arrest warrant is not a search warrant.

Yeah... I've been strip searched more than 500 times and Never made One Cent

Don't believe this woman. She doesn't know how half of what she is talking about and isn't being honest either. She has an angle of some kind in this subject.

total bullshit, juries find guilt or innocense, if the laws are bad change them, sentaces should not be moments of farce

There is so much more to this. If the federal government says something is unconstitutional, each state gets to decide if they will abide by it. Also, most states have a law against police lying. The police are trained to lie. But, since police can't be penalized and can't do their job without lying, it is ignored.

No checks and balances in government, punishments not fitting crimes, and police being immune to prosecution so they do what they want. Also several crimes if you are accused you are found guilty with no defense possible. We have fallen so far.

Its bullshit its unconstitutional PERIOD FUCK AMERICA !

I finally found a human being that thinks like a human being holy shit

The state government makes $0.66 for every dollar of child support from the federal government. Where is their incentive to help out and lower payments?

It's pointless to tell them they can't live near a,park or school but they can still go there. It's probably better for investigation if they have a list of offenders who live nearby.

You neglect to state the crimes the elder committed? Shoplifting? Writing a bad check? The old guy who was drunk and rammed into the nail salon killing 4 people? The old man who shot and killed an innocent woman making an Amazon delivery? If a person isn't committing any crime why would the police target them? This is a really dumb little video void of context.

It's a state owned business . It's run the same as hospitals. Keep it full & receive state & federal funding . Does that make dollars &cents Welcome to corperate america .😢 Sad but true.

Makes me wonder if I'll get arrested now in my old age for spewing vitriol about the police and law enforcement in general. I think I'd rather be shot. RIP Ms. Massey.

explain why its 3x more.. .... you don't ... it makes no sense... unless everyone in prison is just spending all their time on meds and in the hospital -- and if they were sent home--- they would be on medicaid if they were indeed sick--- so its a wash

Is there any evidence that therapy helps? In my experience, much of therapy makes abusers WORSE. It gives them improved manipulation skills and reduces the likelihood of being charged, prosecuted, or convicted.

The term "First time offender" simply means you got caught once. Unless you've worked some of these cases, you have no idea how deep it goes beyond just the one instance. By the time they're caught, you only have to dig a little to find years of escalation.

I met this guy in my alcohol recovery group. After a while he told us he was a convict but not why, but he did whine about it a lot. After a couple of years we broke contact. I knew he was a rapist and a home invader; he told me had over 70 invasions under his belt. A few weeks ago, he showed up at my AA zoom meeting, I wasn't happy, he usually goes to a live meeting at that time, he was chasing a girl at my meeting. Long story about that but I became more suspicious of him. I looked up sex offenders and discovered he is a child rapist which I assume happened during a home invasion. The guy is a very creepy person and lies by omission a lot. I never felt the need to look up the sex offenders list but glad I did. He is 60 years old and still chasing the young girls in AA right in front of his wife. I really dislike this guy and think he should be in prison.

It makes more sense when you consider that it's not about providing safety so much as it is about granting additional punishment beyond the scope of jail. It's more for liability in the case of recidivism than it is for actually preventing sexual assault. I'm not sure this is a problem that can really be addressed this way at all.

95% of sex offenders don't offend again in the current system? Sounds like it's working.

Holy shit, the meme is real

The SOR holds people accountable. No "law" or "consequence" makes a victim safer. It is the basis of where a society stands on being responsible for our actions.

Yes. It rhrows flags in employment. Im guessing she does not care about that

Blegchk, I'm so tired of media prioritizing sensationalism over research and factual info

Medical Error kills more people than gun crime and car crashes COMBINED

"First time" offenders are mostly "first time being caught" offenders. With violent and sexual crime there is usually quite a bit of escalation, especially in adolescence when crimes committed against schoolmates or siblings get swept under the rug. When a 19 year old is caught doing something, you don't really know how many times he did that in 11th grade, summer camp, family reunions, tutoring etc. In reality, most adults offenders were ALREADY given a chance to stop being a pervert and just chill. Most sex offenses are by trusted people because that is who gets access to women and children. That guy fondling himself at the bus stop isn't "less likely" to harm your child than your Uncle, he is just someone you would NEVER allow the access. Crime stats are often skewed by the reality of the precautions we already take. Its tough to measure the likelihood that a registered offender would do it again, compared to a trust community figurehead like a priest or guidance counselor. Its the same way women are more likely to be killed by a lover than a stranger. Thats not because strangers aren't dangerous. Its because loved ones are given the most time and opportunity to harm you. The bloated inaccuracy of the registry is another problem. You've got teens on there for circulating their own nudes. College guys registers because some high school girl duped them on tinder. Public urinators and nonsense like that. Not to mention all the innocent people that just get pressured into plea deals because they can't afford to fight. The list really would be more useful if it were kept to predatory crime that we should be worried about. I want offenders to become better people, but we have to balance that against the value of protecting innocent people. Attempting to give criminals the best possible shot at a normal life is great, but if you've done some sick depraved stuff, people have a right to know if they should be careful of you.

You're talking about a scheme that is blatantly unconstitutional for multiple reasons as well as not backed by a shred of evidence that it has ever helped at all because very few people care about actually studying the effects of this kind of thing when their feelings are so tightly wound up by the thing it's claiming to help solve. I mean just the fact that anyone can be put on it even if they have never been convicted of any crime at all is all you should need to know to understand how useless this garbage is.

As an attorney and a law professor, I have been saying this to those who would argue that certain political figures are being unfairly targeted. Prosecutors are simply doing the bidding of their constituents.

You raise good points

What good does presenting an issue do if you don’t suggest a better option? Your stats seem correct, but without a suggested correction it’s pointless.

The reoffending rate obviously uses data from offences where sex offenders were caught and successfully convicted and does not take account of offences that were never reported by victims or admitted by the perpetrator. You need to make this clear here that you are relying upon the perpetrators honesty that their offences are one-off's when the reality may be very different indeed. We need to be professionally curious.

Because of the list I found out Seattle was dumping their sex offenders in Yakima Washington, Cheney, and Spokane as well. As a result Yakima has 7 times as many sex offenders as the state's average. The list also showed that there were 7 within two blocks of my house and one lived next door. P.S. Not everyone on the list is a predator. I had a buddy who had left his zipper down when he was drunk and was cited for indecency and required him to take a class. He skipped the class which put him on the offenders list.

As a sex offender myself, I can honestly say that we should do away with sex offender registration.

Thats wrong. When 9n the list. You cant be around any kids. Wtf is she talking about.

If someone has nothing left to lose. How's that going to work out?

I'll admit I'm biased both because of tepid regrets over not reporting the person that victimized me as a minor, but also someone who generally doesn't support the retributive nature of the modern criminal justice system. The argument in this video is largely vibes-based, and the one number thrown own doesn't justify it's conclusion because it doesn't account for important confounders (see: @Eric09088's comment). I'm open to the idea that SORs are ineffective, but I just don't think this video does a good job of making that case, and something about a 2 minute vibes-based hot take about such a serious and sensitive matter doesn't hit quite right to me.

Thank you. Sadly, the general public never thinks this lucidly.

Agree but you can't say anything or talk about this issue without first looking like a weirdo and being suspect yourself.

Yes! It makes all women safer. If a woman needs to make a complaint and the offender is already on that list, it should be easier to get law enforcement to act. A national data base would work well for several other issues as well.

True , many such offences are by family members , but you did seem to brush off the remainder . Even if it's statistically less likely that an predator will take a victim from a park or playground , that's cold comfort to the victims of such opportunistic crime . Recidivism rates are only statistical indicators , and as we all know statistics are meaningless to the individual , so once again it's cold comfort to the victim of a statistically anomalous repeat offender. So taking the argument made against the death sentence as a basic construct , isn't it better that 100 sex offenders have restrictions placed upon them rather than one child be raped ?

Personally I'd like to see a public registry of ALL convicts. Regardless of crime.

You're definitely a Leftist. You probably use the term "minor attracted people" instead of pedophile.

It's not just sex offenses will get a person on that list! Urinating in a public place will get you there also!

This is one of those videos that relies on information produced by anti registry groups (aka sex offenders) to make it seem like registries do nothing (Oh trust me, they do thats why they fight them so hard) and that sex offenders aren't dangerous (because they cherry pick a study that has a low recidivism rate because it was only focused on a one or three year period.) Some states do have residency restrictions and some don't. It makes sense to keep sex offenders away from kids for various reasons, such as being able to develop a relationship with them. It also keeps them out of going into schools. They try, there are many news articles. It’s true, most children are abused by family or ACQUAINTANCES. That’s why the registry is so important. It provides vital information to parents and other adults about SOs that are in close proximity in their neighborhood, work or if they know their name. All acquaintances and people who could be your friends. Up to 25 percent of sex offenders are arrested for another sex based crime. That’s not including the fact that sex crimes are VASTLY underreported. So when you say 95 percent of sexually based crimes are first offenses, that’s not true. That’s the first time they were CAUGHT. We know many molesters can have hundreds of victims. Offenders arent having all these problems because they are on some random list. All of their problems come from what they did to get on that list. They face problems getting jobs or finding a place to stay because employers and landlords don’t want to hire someone who committed a sexual crime, not because of the regsitry. They would learn that in a background check even if there was no registry. If you really think RSOs arent a problem, go type in sex offender in google news and see how many arrests there were in the last 7 days. Those are just the stories that hit the news. Also it DOES give victims the ability to track where the person lives and works so they don’t have to see them and can protect themselves as well.

I agree that we Need a Better Based set Up. a Man that is 17 dating a 16 year Old should NOT be prosecuted for SR when he turned 18. Also a Man who SR someone if they are dating and He is under 19 should not have to register. BUT you are sadly wrong Many reoffend which is why we see Many with Huge tally/ Priests with 300. Boy Scout Leaders who Have 20 ,30 + Yes Many offenses occur In the Home. But My offender when On to be arrested more than Once for domestic abuse and who Knows what else. Also only 1 in 4 will report the assault Many people don't even get medical care. Also Just Because they are "" In the Home"" does Not mean there are Not many victims. Teacher found to have groomed over and over again, Father who abuse daughters going after daughters friends. It's Nice that You can In fact make Yourself Feel Better with the false claims But IM sorry You wrong and off. THEY WILL ALWAYS REOFFEND Just because they didn't get caught or their victim I to young to tell But they are offending. You don't Just R a child Out of the Blue. You thought about it for a Long time and then "" couldn't help themself". They Just caught a POLICE MAN boy friend who R a one year Old with the MOM in the House. Hospitalized the child Broke a Bone on her to do it. Please

Everyone echoes these comments until they realize the hard way that the system has nothing to do with justice, locks up innocents, and has little to no oversight. Or until they realize that crimes are committed by people and not monsters. And until a family member or friend is incarcerated. And if they are suggesting that prisons *should* be this way, it says a whole lot more about how horrible *they* are and not whoever they’re jumping to condemn.

Thank you

It not only isn't working, it's giving us a false sense of security... And it gives the Cops a way to do absolutely nothing while pretending to keep us safe. "A kid got touched, so we showed them all the pictures in the Registry, and they couldn't identify their toucher. "O well, we did all we could."

what percentage of sex offenders are guilty only of urinating in public ?

Pedo's are listed so those selling to pedo's can find them.n

Agree
