"Society has decided that some of these individuals might be scarier than even a murderer," Chief Luis Velez told the Independent two weeks ago, when the site was created.
Sad, but true.
A person who had extramarital sex and did not disclose the marriage also could be on the list.
Oh come on, if this is true, then we have a BIG problem and these lists are going to have more politicians than dangerous offenders... oh, wait... politicians ARE dangerous offenders.

(4) Information released pursuant to this section, at a minimum,
shall include the name, address or addresses, and aliases of the registrant;
the registrant's date of birth; a photograph of the registrant, if requested and
readily available; and a history of the convictions of unlawful sexual
behavior resulting in the registrant being required to register pursuant to this
article. Information concerning victims shall not be released pursuant to
this section.
That's some pretty clear language to me. Straight from the enacted bill. The LEA is definitely REQUIRED to provide the criminal history.
So why this?
Attorneys for the police department now are taking a closer look at whether the site complies with the law
What's to look at? Either the history is there per the law, or it isn't. What's with all the posturing? The site violates state law, and should be shut down until such time that it is in compliance. And somebody put the Chief in his own jail for breaking the law.
