Supreme Court Ruling Allows LA Sex Offender Registry

The Advocate reports that convicted sex offenders in Louisiana will still be required to register with authorities without first being granted a hearing after the United States Supreme Court upheld similar laws in Alaska and Connecticut. Further, the ruling affirms the right of the states to post such information on the Internet. The Louisiana State Police maintains the Louisiana Sex Offender and Child Predator Registry.
