Sex Offenders and the Law

By Laura Knoy on Wednesday, June 27, 2007.

Getting tough on Sex Offenders...after their sentence is served. A small but growing number of New Hampshire towns are limiting the number of places where registered sex offenders can live: away from schools, parks, or anywhere else children might congregate. We’ll look at the debate over how fair...and how effective...these ordinances are.

Guests

  • Janice Lindbloom, Concerned parent in Northfield. She helped get the town to pass tougher ordinances on where sex offenders can live.
  • Barbara Keshen, Staff Attorney for the NH Civil Liberties Union and a member of the NH Public Defender’s Office.
