victorialondon, I'm finding it difficult to access and verify the articles you reference in the forums. Instead of posting tidbits like the date, author and some text from the article, could you please post the URL (web address) of the articles so it's easy for me and other readers to locate them? Also, could you copy and paste text you are quoting from any articles instead of typing it manually? I ask because it'll save you time and ensure accuracy. I located this article, but for example where you wrote "with a 13 year old boyfriend..." it actually read "with a 13 year old boyf" (boy, not boyfriend) and by changing it to boyfriend you changed the facts since that was neither stated nor implied.

I gather you may not know how to copy and paste and find URLs so I'll be glad to help you - just ask.

For reference, the original article can be found here:

http://www.ulaverne.edu/~ctimes/970228/megan228.htm

The article is actually an editorial written by a 2nd year college student 7 years ago (February 1997) for a California college newspaper. Since the people cited don't have their names mentioned, I can't verify the information and the alleged incidents were years ago just after Megan's Law was implemented in California, it's hard for me to give those incidents much credence. Please note that the U.S. federal version of Megan's Law wasn't passed until May 1996 and the California state version wasn't passed until September 1996 - a mere 5 months before the editorial was written and a few months after Megan's Law was actually implemented in California. Even if those incidents did occur Megan's Law was so new (it had just been implemented) and 7 years have passed that I don't think they're necessarilly relevant today if your point is that Megan's Law has certain negative effects.

See an abbreviation or acronym, but don't know what it stands for? Consult the Glossary.
