Attendees learn about the latest research on civil commitment programs and about activism that has sprung up to oppose it. These programs allow 22 states and the federal government to petition to indefinitely detain thousands of individuals convicted or accused of certain sexual offenses beyond their court‐ordered prison sentence. Sociologist Trevor Hoppe will first present findings from a landmark study surveying civil commitment which finds that these programs disproportionately impact men of color and gay men. Then Christian Doggett will describe inspiring efforts to oppose this draconian practice by the organization "OCEAN" developed by two men civilly committed within the Minnesota Sex Offender Program.
NARSOL is the nation’s oldest and largest civil rights organization exclusively dedicated to defending the constitutional liberties of registered citizens and their families.NARSOL opposes dehumanizing registries and works to eliminate discrimination, banishment, and vigilantism against persons accused or convicted of sexual offenses through the use of impact litigation, public education, legislative advocacy, and media outreach in order to reintegrate and reconcile affected individuals and restore their constitutional rights.

It is insane that the "State Of Minnesota" allows people to be imprisoned without a "Reasonable Criminal Trial". How on earth did this law get passed into existence in the "State Of Minnesota"?

I'm on the side of the victims, not the sex offenders. Anyone that can't be trusted in society must be removed from it, permanently.

If civil commitment accomplished its purpose, that would be one thing. However, data shows that there is no difference in re-offense rates between states that have civil commitment and those that don't. (www.prisonpolicy.org/blog/2023/05/18/civil-commitment/). So why are we spending money for something that doesn't do what it claims to while holding people unconstitutionally? If you would like to argue that people who commit certain crimes serve life in prison, you should discuss that with people who write those laws.

Civil commitment costs states, and taxpayers have to pay. So yes, it does cost money.

Ok., next time you get a ticket are go to jail, maybe after you pay your debt, we can think of unconstitutional reasons to keep you locked up.

Very confusing, that's probably why no one has made any comments here

Civil Commitment is a confusing and complicated topic. Also, those in civil commitment probably couldn't comment since they are most likely denied internet access.

The reason this hasn't many comments, is because of the lack of views. The reason there is very few views is because the American people would rather have there heads in the ground about these unconstitutional laws. As long as it's against the people they hate, they don't care. Pretty soon, if these arrogant people keep allowing this to happen, they may be next.

This presentation was done at last year's conference in Raleigh, North Carolina, which would make it about a year old. Sadly, the laws have not changed much.
