Parents have a right to know when a pedophile moves in down the street.
If they don t know, their children may be in danger. Right now, the law requires violent sexual predators to tell the police when they change addresses. If a sexual predator ignores this requirement, he deserves to be thrown in jail. At a press conference at the government center in Charlotte, North Carolina this morning, Myrick announced that, upon her return to Washington, D.C. this afternoon, she would introduce legislation to help enforce the requirements of Megan s Law. Megan s Law was passed in 1996 to make sure that parents know when sex offenders move nearby.
