so, this NEW system isn't able to track OLD offenders???  it doesn't state how they "got word.."  It took SIX YEARS to discover he wasn't registered?????  We need to demand this be a priority, for safety's sake.

 

Well, Guest, according to HotFlash this inaction or inability to track is excusable because they just NOW implemented a tracking system.  She has an excuse for everything.  Read her response below.

Of course you Doe's always get nasty when someone answers you back, we couldn't expect anything else.  :shock:

Overview of Delawares sex offender laws.

 

General Provisions  

Delaware State law requires the registration of offenders, both adult and juvenile, who are convicted of certain sex-related offenses, as defined in 11 Del Code § 4121(a)(4). 

Offenders are categorized into a Risk Assessment Tier by the sentencing court or the Delaware Attorney General’s Office.    (not the DSP as someone claimed)

 

Risk Assessment Tiers

The Risk Assessment Tiers are defined under 11 Del Code § 4121(e). The Tiers are generally referred to as follows:  

·         Tier III (High Risk)

·         Tier II  (Moderate Risk)

·         Tier I   (Low Risk)

 

Community Notification

 “Community Notification” is defined as “notice which is provided by any method devised specifically to notify members of the public who are likely to encounter a sex offender." 
Methods of Notification

·         Door-to-Door Appearances

·         Mail

·         Electronic Mail

·         Telephone

·         Fax

·         Newspapers

·         Notices

 

Who Is Notified

·         Schools

·         Licensed Day Care Facilities

·         Public Libraries

·         Other Accessible Public Facilities Within the Community

 

Additional Community Notification Information

The law states that when a sex offender assigned to Risk Assessment Tier II or III provides registration information, the law enforcement agency of the jurisdiction where the offender intends to reside shall provide public notification as follows:

·         For sex offenders assigned to Risk Assessment Tier II, notification shall consist of searchable records available to the public, and may also consist of community notification.

·         For sex offenders assigned to Risk Assessment Tier III, notification shall consist of searchable records available to the public as well as community notification.

·         For sex offenders assigned to Tier II or III, notice shall be given to any school the offender plans to attend and/or to the chief law enforcement officer of the local jurisdiction where the offender plans to be employed. 

 In cases of a Tier II sex offender, a letter is sent to all schools, places of worship, licensed day care centers, and libraries advising them that the person has established residency, works, or attends school. Pedigree information, including the person’s name, address, physical description, and conviction information is also included with the letter.

In cases of a Tier III sex offender, in addition to the provisions for a Tier II sex offender, door-to-door community notification is made in the neighborhood in which the offender resides, works, or attends school.

The law further requires that “if a school, school district or licensed child care provider receives community notification, the community notification must be placed in a binder and kept in the administrative office available to view upon request by adults and juveniles with adult supervision. No community notification may be removed from the binder unless the school or child care provider is notified of an address change informing them that the offender has moved from the community. 

The school, school district, or licensed child care provider shall notify parents and staff frequently through their regular communications of the availability and location of the community notification binder. The physical posting of community notifications in public school buildings and licensed child care facilities is prohibited.”

How To Register as a Sex Offender  

Anyone convicted of the defined sex offenses in 11 Del Code § 4121(a)(4) must register with the Delaware State Bureau of Identification (SBI). SBI can be contacted at (302) 739-5882 during normal business hours.  All registration is handled by SBI. Offenders are required to register within 7 days of their conviction, change of address or upon establishing residency in Delaware. Anyone Delaware resident convicted of a sex crime in another state must still register in Delaware.   Offenders must change their address with SBI within 7 days of address change of their residence, employer or school they attend. 

Failure to comply with any section of the Sex Offender registry provisions is a Class G Felony.

Who cares!!!!! Even the town mangers wife can't make a sensible comment on sex offender.  Hey maybe I like them, maybe I know them, maybe they hang out at my house. Hey I do know there are people on the list that have not done such heinous acts as we all think a sex offender would do!!!!!!!!! Maybe we should have them over for dinner. You people are such losers. David Hugg and his wife Jaci are the ones who make the rules.... Can't you read. Your pitiful opinions do not matter.

There IS a daycare just up the block, but behind the Colonial in the parking lot where the school Admin building is.  How far from the homeless shelter is that?  closer than JBM, I'd say.  so is this a law NOW or was it a proposed law that never got followed up on?

Jaci Hugg the town managers wife has an opinion about sex offenders, but I can't figure out if she is for or against them living next door. You decide.

http://www.wboc.com/Global/story.asp?S=4532051

SMYRNA- Smyrna is working to keep sex offenders away from where the town's children spend their time. 

A new bill passed unamimously by the Smyrna Town Council on Tuesday night would limit how close registered sex offenders can live to schools, parks and daycares.

The bill as proposed would keep registered sex offenders 2,500 feet away from places children normally hang out. State  law requires offenders to live more than 500 feet away. 

Just the possibility of sex offenders coming into the picture convinced Smyrna Mayor Mark Schaeffer that he had to take action fast.

"We do have a number of sex offenders living in our community and I think it's finally important that we do whatever we can to protect the safety of our children," Schaeffer said.

The Delaware sex offender registry shows 60 sex offenders living in Smyrna, but not all are the considered high risk. Those who attended Tuesday's meeting cautioned the council to be aware of the differences before passing any laws.

"I do know there are people on the list that have not done such heinous acts as we all think a sex offender would do," said Smyrna resident Jaci Hugg. "But with the town's public safety on the line, others want all sex offenders away from children."

"There are different tiers of sex offenders and they are all risks," Schaeffer said. "I think however, that we need to discuss whether or not we should treat them in a separate fashion."

The bill, based on an ordinance that the Bridgeville Town Commission passed earlier this month, will be reviewed by Smyrna’s Public Safety Committee during its meeting scheduled for March 1.

 Did you know that a sex offender could even be a person flashing their breast or even have a emergency bathroom visit that gets caught.And even more sad that a girl or boy wanted to have sex, then their mom or dad finds out then it was rape because they don't want to let their parents know the real side of the story.

Well Taats, it seems like this guy was missing before the Unit was even set up so you really cannot blame the new Unit.  However, the State Police should have the answers to the questions you have.

Of course you Doe's always get nasty when someone answers you back, we couldn't expect anything else.  :shock:

Hot, they really look like they do a good job of keeping track.  See this link for a verification of that statement.  http://www.delawareonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=200881004028

However, you sound like you have a handle on who can and can't be on the list.  Sounds like personal experience to me.

Furthermore, the rapist who was the subject of this topic was identified as an offender who raped WITHOUT consent.

Hot, how many "so called' reformed/served their time sex offenders that have been let loose have repeated their crimes and worse.  And, by worse I mean have not only repeated the act of molestation/rape and then murdered their victim.  I for one do not want the likes of these so called reformed/served their time sex offenders near my children or theirs.  A homeless shelter is NOT the place for someone like this.  Besides, how far away from the school is this shelter.  Less than a mile.  Aren't their laws about this?

Well GP, there are people in this world and also this Town that care about other people.  People that have no place to live, people that don't have any money because they lost their job, people that can't afford to pay rent because they are on disability and it doesn't stretch far enough, you have a problem with that.  I do feel sorry for you because you apparently do not have a compassionate bone in your body.  I had no idea that Smyrna even had a homeless shelter, but I am sure it is full because there are so many people in need.  In my opinion, I think it is great that someone opened a shelter. 

 Also, after a person fullfills his prison sentence, they are usually on probation and kept track of especially a sex offender.  Please tell me what you think they should do, kill themselves maybe?  According to you that is the only alternative or  you say "move the trash out", where to, nobody wants them.:shock:

HotFlash....you have this incredibly annoying habit of stating the obvious. So what's your point? He served his time so he is no longer "High Risk" Or...he served his time but will always be on the register...like duh.....tell us something we don't know. You are always grandstanding like a politicians wife with nothing really to say.  So, if it is hunky dory with you that the convicted rapist served his time but now resides downtown in the homeless shelter, come downtown and take a walk down Commerce Street some night by yourself.....yeah right...that'll happen

And Guest Ghost - who cares??

If Smyrna can move the businesses out of town and onto the highway, they can sure as hell move the homeless shelter out of town as well.  Didn't the cops just get rid of the drug dealers on the corner?  We don't need to bring the trash in....we need to move the trash out. Thank you Mrs Senator.

When our pastor Briggs and other ministers were trying to get the town to do a homeless shelter I thought it was for those who were in need such as women and children because of abuse or lack of money.  I did not realize that these shelters would harbor convicted felons especially those who were sex offenders.  This disappoints me.
