>"and may have had to register as a sex offender"
The registry is public, as is the defendant in the case. It could be easily looked up if the statement was credible in the first place.
- eesmith 4y agoThe question was "have been prosecuted" not "convicted." The citation [4] at https://archive.ph/20070525044229/http://www.klbk13.tv/news/default.asp?mode=shownews&id=2259 https://archive.ph/20070525044229/http://www.klbk13.tv/news/... says "if convicted, the clerk will have to register as a sex offender." Though I guess the D.A. could have decided to not prosecute, leaving only the arrest... Why do you doubt the citation?
- masonic 4y ago>The question was "have been prosecuted" not "convicted." Nobody registers as a sex offender without a conviction. Why is that not obvious to you? >Why do you doubt the citation? The cited article doesn't even say that charges were ever filed, so there's nothing to "doubt". Beyond that, a local TV news "reporter" is not likely to understand law any more than you do.
