Comment on Legal Corner: Can I Ask for My Attorney During a Polygraph? by JL

Polygraphs by themselves are not admissible in the state I live, however, I know that the consequences of the results have a clear impact on how the remainder of your supervised release goes. Keep that in mind when you take them.

I also feel like they are a part of the racket involving rehabilitation to offenders. Some programs, many in fact, are beneficial and help those who’ve committed crimes move forward and reenter society. This one in particular, seems to just be a way for companies to charge an extortionate amount of money from those required to take them, and they hold her feet to the fire to not miss appointments without notice otherwise they charge DOUBLE. All because they know you are required to take them. Absolutely sickening.

While on the dark web I became curious and dl child porn. I deleted it with Avast shredder, making it not recoverable. Unfortunately, my dl was detected and police seized all software after their initial raid found nothing. I was arrested a year and half later after a new software recovered hundreds of fragments of the shredded delete. They charged me with possession of dozens files after counting individual fragments as a file. My lawyer convinced me to plead guilty by saying I would only get a slap on the wrist,. I plead guilty and the judge gave me 5yrs probation and jail time.

In reply to FactsShouldMatter. 1000% Agreed Now how do we get lawmakers nationwide to see the error and harm in what was originally intended to be a tool to help protect our children and society from persons who are a true and continuing threat.

I’m glad lawmakers are finally starting to be more open to the truths we here on the NARSOL forum, as well as other advocacy groups, have known for so long.

I hope good things come from this, if only a sliver of hope, there is still hope.

If even religious institutions are becoming subject to changing their ideologies because of the registry, where will PFR’s go to find redemption?

Seems like the registry has gone far beyond the scope of the original architects… something those forced to register have long known…

In reply to Max Freeman. While it would be nice to receive compensation for the pain and suffering that these laws have caused, I think just being able to get off the registry alone would be enough to let one live their lives rehabilitated. Some states, like Texas for example, have not come this far in acknowledging the negative impacts these laws have had not only on registrants, but to the immediate families of those involved. Not to mention the countless extended family members who feel some of this hurt by proxy. One step closer, and one more case setting precedent like this one did helps further the cause to make these laws just, fair, and fitting of the crime. Once the sentence is served, you have paid your debt and should be able to reintegrate back into society.

Because it has been finally proven that it is in fact punishment, I hope and pray to God the courts will continue to fight against the life long registry even for those who have made that serious mistake after 2011. All man kind should have the constitutional right to have the chance to rehabilitate themselves after sentence’s have been served. With the registry in place and being made public. It is near impossible to gain worthy employment and live a life free from harassment from not only the citizens but from law enforcement as well. Also those of us that has had our lives torn apart and systematically destroyed should automatically be compensated for all those years our lives suffered the effects from an unconstitutional law.

The MSC got it right.

Many registrants and their Families have suffered. Those effected should be able to hold those responsible accountable for the pain and suffering all these years. Sick system when they protect them selves when they swore to protect all citizens rights and constitution when they are appointed to State or Government office. Our systems are broken. Lets hope this a start of a new life for many who were victims of our own State and Government’s over reach of Power and violation of thousands of citizens right .

May God Bless those who have suffered unjustly for so many years.
