It would be interesting if the chart above could show how many people there are who committed ONE single misdemeanor in their entire life and who are listed as Tier 3 and forced to register FOR LIFE! That would make for some compelling reading, I bet!

I’d love to know why petitions are being denied.

I really don’t see the actual # of registrants ever reducing. Sure, the courts will grant petitions, but the LEOs and DAs will keep the coffers full by replenishing the registry with new convictions. They know where their bread is buttered and aren’t about to throw away this cash cow. ( too many metaphors?)
