SANTA ANA REGISTRATION II

I read the link, provided anove by Guest, regarding my question about registration in Santa Ana and the comment that, Janice took care of it.
But what does that mean currently?

The article linked only said that was part of a larger lawsuit that have been filed,but it gave no disposition.

Can anyone tell me if Santa has actually changed the way they register people now?
Are registrants no longer trapped in the jail? Are they no longer required to wear jail uniform tops for their pictures?

I’m wondering because I was thinking of taking a class at Santa Ana College, the city I do not normally register in, and of course you have to register with the police department if you do that.
But being subjected to the (previously?) arduous procedures at San Ana Police Department just may not be worth it.

Awhile back I was informed I was going to get a background check.. and nothing happened… No one from HR or anyone said anything since than.. Now HR informed me that after the holidays I will be going for a LiveScan. From what I read a Live Scan isn’t restricted to 6 years ago, basically its everything… Does anyone have experience with Live Scan?

I resently came across this article about how in the UK now the presumption of innosence is no longer going to be applied by the police/prosecution/court on an Administrative level. Yes while not law, Yet. None the less under color of law men will have to prove their innocence in rape cases. They will have to prove consent occurred. How can one do that? This is extremely disturbing as 800 plus years of legal tradition are being abandoned by the country that gave us the Magna Carta and thus the adversarial court system. The crown can now treat the accused as guilty procedurally and stack the deck against someone trying to defend themselves. The recipe for abuse and False Accusations is now staggering, and while they can fight it this Will make it all but impossible for non-rich defendants. While this is in the UK,for now. Legal practices tend to transplant between the U.S. and the U.K. It is only a matter of time before it comes here.
