CA RSOL Meeting

California Western Law School, Room LH2
350 Cedar Street, San Diego, CA 92101
I am sort of new to the whole 290 thing and still on probation. I would like to attend but I am afraid that if I do my PO will violate me and I will end up in jail.
Are there any rules about RSOs coming onto campus, or would doing so violate some law?
it seem to just say “attending school”
(b) Every person described in subdivision (c), for the rest of his
or her life while residing in California, or while attending school
or working in California, as described in Sections 290.002 and
290.01, shall be required to register with the chief of police of the
city in which he or she is residing, or the sheriff of the county if
he or she is residing in an unincorporated area or city that has no
police department, and, additionally, with the chief of police of a
campus of the University of California, the California State
University, or community college if he or she is residing upon the
campus or in any of its facilities, within five working days of
coming into, or changing his or her residence within, any city,
county, or city and county, or campus in which he or she temporarily
resides, and shall be required to register thereafter in accordance
with the Act.
it said “enrolled as a student ” so that different
So PC 626.81 does say you don’t have to be taking classes before you have to notify the school administrator, just enter the school building. Right? I guess the notification is not considered registration, and so not listed under the 290 requirements. Do we have to know the whole of the California codes, in order to avoid violating a law with serious consequences? How confusing. I really thought my life would be fine as long as I faithfully followed the mantra “do no harm”. How stressful. 10 years already taken off of my lifespan, due to stress. Glad I am no longer young. I truly empathize with those in their 20s or younger. What a waste of people’s lives.
I just want to add, it a waste of the lives of the families of the registrant, who are often more stressed out than the 290s, because society is saying “leave your loved ones, or you too will suffer”. Going back to the middle ages, we are, the public shaming of the criminal and his family, the parade to the scaffold, confessing one’s sins in public, the “broadsheets” listing our deviencies, the scarlet letter, the lawless, angry crowds. Only technology is advancing.
thank you for this meeting place. its very much needed if we group up its going to do something. the registry needs to be taken down or at least changed so that the serious offenders need to be on it only. the adam malsh act is bad and endangers the public more than helps it. putting everyone on the website including registrants who are no more a threat hides the serious offenders within the minor non threats in which threatens the public. needs to be changed. everyone is lumped into one mold and outcasted. the website is a false sense of security. oregon is not using the federal adam walsh model and is a better state that only puts predators and violent offenders on the webpage. this is the right way. they are now using a tier system that is more fair. i’m moving there
If my friend and i can find a place to boondock the RV anywhere in truely southern California, we WILL go to this event. We will have the money to go, but we need to move anyway. Anyone know of a place i can register, and boondock the RV for a few weeks or longer? We would leave the RV where we are boondocked, then take the car to San Diego for this event.
Janice… please advise if you know where a registrant can go. ANYWHERE in southern california.. condition is i must have an “address” to give local sheriff before i move. That’s what’s keeping me from just going now. If you get this message, please respond back. Thanks!
Jason,
I “might” be able to help. What do you mean by the term “boondock”??
Update for everyone! I WILL BE ATTENDING THIS MEETING! I just registered successfully here in San Diego County. I am staying at a hotel for a few days, will try and keep this location as long as i can so that i may not be forced to re-register as being homeless, or having moved.
Also, my former county is in for a huge surprise as a just learned that for more than a decade, my County Sheriff has been doing registrations illegally and the police here are now in contact with the US Department of Justice to forward information my documents to them showing how the old county has been illegally registering me and setting me up for disaster. (And also not providing me proof of registration)
And the best part of the registration process is the recommendation that i get a hold of California RSOL because they probably should know about what happened to me. (I then told the person registering me that.. i was here for the California RSOL conference!)
Today has been an excellent day. I’m more excited than ever to be able to attend!
