Thank god for the registry. Guy up the road from me has a charge for sexual assault on a minor less than 12yo. He's constantly in and out of jail for other things and EVERYONE knows when he is being released as people blast it on every public forum they can.

We had a break in that coincided with one of his releases. I was unaware of him and i must've had 15 people in my tiny town reach out to say that they suspected it was likely him. I certainly don't feel bad for the guy but it's at the point where he is blamed for literally any crime that happens in our small town. And honestly I can't think of much of a better punishment. He is literally the town pariah and can't even leave his meth lab trailer to show his face.
