OAG Docket No. 134
To Whom It May Concern: State acknowledgment forms FAIL to notify registrants of FEDERAL SORNA requirements, FEDERAL Guidelines (which interpret SORNA and subtle points) and Sec. 2250 requirements, but ONLY mention what is required by State registry law. The FAILURE of the State acknowledgement forms to notify -ALL REGISTRANTS- of the above, places certain registrants in peril of arrest, prosecution and prison for doing many things customary to daily life. i.e., registrants living near state borders customarily attend family church services, medical appoints, do shopping, etc., and these may be in a bordering state. The FAILURE to notify registrants, of Sec. 2250 at least, places registrants in peril if stopped by police. Registering in the bordering state is even frustrated or impossible because there is no residence to report in that state. Further, a death of a family member, or friend, may require ANY registrant to cross state lines (temporarily or for several days) or may require travel to another country. The FAILURE of State acknowledgment forms to notify registrants of how to handle such emergencies, and vacations that cross state lines for more than 3 days, all place registrants in peril. State acknowledgement forms are inadequate in many respects, mainly forms FAIL to notify registrants of SORNA requirements including Federal Guidelines interpreting SORNA, and Sec. 2250. Thank you.
