“A federal judge just issued a preliminary injunction against Yorkville in response to the lawsuit, stating that there’s no evidence an offender who lived in Yorkville is any more or less likely to commit another sex crime than an offender who didn’t.”
>>It’s so refreshing and heartening to see the judges are now not just hearing the truth about recidivism, but are stating it themselves.
“Milwaukee has not made any changes in its rules, but Alderman Michael Murphy, who warned about the repercussions when the city debated adding an ordinance in 2014, says changes will be likely.
“’And not just in Milwaukee,’ he adds, ‘but throughout the state of Wisconsin, and potentially the whole country.’”
>> And likewise that this alderman gets it, and apparently has since 2014. He also sees the potential of the whole BS scheme collapsing. I can already hear the LEOs crying that it hampers their ability to fight and prevent crime, refusing to accept anything as truth besides 80% recidivism.

Kenosha similarly cut its buffer zones down to 1,000 feet from 2,500, and removed a clause that said a registered sex offender couldn’t live within six blocks of another sex offender. The plaintiff attorneys had argued there’s no evidence the distance between sex offenders has any bearing on public safety.

Wait, couldn’t this apply to viewing ML? If living next to one another doesn’t have any bearing on public safety, then why does looking at ML be a felonious act? There’s no statistical bearing to public safety living to one another. Why would viewing ML be a public safety? I don’t get this at all.
More power to you, Mark Weinberg & Adele Nicholas attorneys defending & protecting our Constitution,
Now more than ever.
Outstanding work. Keep it going.
