State officials are cracking down on registered sex offenders, just as Halloween is around the corner. It’s called “Operation Boo,” which requires that all registered sex offenders to adhere to certain curfews and restrictions between 5 p.m. and 5 a.m., starting on Halloween night. They also cannot put up Halloween decorations or give out candy to trick-or-treating children. Full Article

And I am concerned about the drunk drivers that will be on the road coming home from a Halloween party. Everyone has a concern.
More wasted money and effort. Cali is off the hook! So much concern for children’s right, I guess adults dont have any? More nonsense, not to say it isn’t possible, but way better chance of being robbed and ran over. Bet the po’s love the overtime , laughing all the way to the bank.
By the way, how many sex offender crime free Halloween’s will it take before these nutty concerned parents aren’t given any more attention. Answer, until the planet dies. Honestly, these stories need to stop being printed as concerned parent stories, but instead Halloween myth stories.
Witches, black cats, sex offenders, goblins, werewolves, ghosts and other sorted devilish creatures to scare and delight. BOO!
“Possible”… They can be afraid of that word through out their lifetime.
” Possible “…those people continue to live in fear.
Everything is ” possible “…..DUI runs over your Halloween outing…
…..scary clown is seen on Halloween….
……rain or lightning strikes on Halloween….
……” Possible “….world war 3 is possible….
The greater ” possible ” is that someone NOT registered is more likely your danger.
Put that in your “possible” and sit on it.
“Possible”….isn’t that a category on the gameshow JEOPARDY…..
$200.00 Bink:
LA Times news reports today: LA Unified school personnel: misconduct crimes…
What is ” possible “….at LA Unified.
Are San Diego and Orange Counties like the “Florida” of California? I might be wrong, but it seems like most of these fear-mongering sex offender stories and crap legislation tend to come from there.
The spouses , children and other relations of the registrant don’t count to this reporter. This witch hunt applies to all registrants on Halloween. The CDCR is encouraging parents to report all registrants who have decorations by calling 911. This is worse than the sign requirement. http://www.cdcr.ca.gov/Parole/docs/Operation-Boo-Brochure-2016.pdf?pdf=Operation-Boo-2016
I’m coloring in a name badge to keep you perverts away from my stash of candy. I’m also teaching my dog to search the registry before it goes to the bathroom on your lawn. Please take notice of all the crime on Halloween and throw it back at these stupid reporters, and ask them if they feel responsible for not warning the public. Turn the tables on them.
the reporter can’t even get the main topic of the article right…States alllll sex offenders must comply with curfew requirements…..ahhh I don’t believe that includes anyone not on parole….
I guess we’ll be having the same stories next year, and the year after, and the decade after, and the century after, and the millineum after, and forever after lol.
If this is supposed to be about kids, why the 5 p.m. and 5 a.m. curfew/restrictions? Parents can legally allow their kids to roam the streets all night, but a registered sex offender has to be indoors by 5 p.m.?
The after Halloween score card, so far, have not yielded any RCs attacking kids, however, this sad thing occurred. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/2-children-1-adult-killed-in-halloween-crash-in-mississippi/ar-AAjFrAm?ocid=spartandhp
They will probably blame it on RC’s. Took their eyes off road to check SO listings. These uncaring people who advocate these registries can go one by one, the fewer of them the better. I have no mercy left for them.
Just to clarify, this bogus law applies only to RCs on probation or parole, right?
