if you have one offense and are leve 1 then you can come off ok

I was completely removed from the Oklahoma sex offender registry as a result of the Starkey decision in Oklahoma. It took them a year to remove me, but I have been off the registry since 2014. The Starkey vs the State of Oklahoma decision was in June 2013----

No, I do not update nor register at all.

The only problem is if you are removed from the registry in one state and move to another state and establish residency there, according to the SORNA guidelines, you will have to begin registering all over again in the new state since you have engaged in interstate commerce. I am in Oklahoma and I am staying in Oklahoma so I do not have to register again in another state.

BTW, in Pennsylvania they did the same thing as they did in Oklahoma by increasing the duration and frequency of the registration scheme for those registrants that were convicted before the tier levels were enacted. I don't know if those in Pennsylvania have sued the state as Mr. Starkey did in Oklahoma, but it might be something worthwhile to look into.

Rew did you see the post on SOSEN today about moving that someone was thinking about? lol it's far-fetched but someone has to think outside the box sometimes.

I could not quite follow his thinking over there at SOSEN,

BUT, In the link below, if you read far enough, you will see this text-----" Failure by states to implement SORNA does not relieve individuals subject to act of their obligation to register under SORNA."

Scroll about one-fifth the way down the page.

If you are on the registry in one state and decide to move to another state while still on the registry do you then follow the state you move to guidelines? I know if you are off the registry you have to follow Sorna but what if you are still on the registry. Does it just transfer to the new state? I ask because when my son gets out of prison he wants to move to another state as soon as he can.

Rew,
Given your last link and information it sounds as though a person would have to continue to register even though they have no obligation within the state. For example, the state says for a Tier 1 you can be removed after 5 years, but the SORNA states that it is 15. How would a person continue to register when they are off their state registration?
I can see that most people would not even consider a conflict between the state and federal and follow whatever the state is implementing.
Moving to another state is a whole different issue. :)

Ok, now I know I don't put out perfect stuff but when I publish something like an article like that, I do try to PROOF READ. Have a hard time taking the man seriously when the copy has got errors galore...

This like this always makes me feel rebellious. I want to go find obscure laws and break them, just to see what'll happen.

What I can't believe after reading the links in the comments section that the police can use this ignorance crap as an excuse to say they didn't know they were violating someones' civil rights. We have some former LE on here and folks that have worked closely with them on here. What is their opinions on this 'cop out' that the cops can use to justify their behavior? Is it ignorance or is it just a get out of jail free card?

Here is a previous thread with a lot of information about moving and SORNA-----

I think it's stupid how once where off the registery and we move they want to punish us more by making us register with that state
