Q: My son He was charged with 4th degree CSC in 2004 with no jail time. He was to be off the registry in 15 years.
WHY IS HE STILL ON TO REPORT AND REGISTER. HE WAS ALSO TO BE A TEIR ONE BUT THAT NEVER HAPPENED. He was charged by my daughter-in-law with touching my granddaughter a week after we saw bruises on my granddaughters lower back and Justin asked his brother what happened and he told him that Kristy was going to spank Riley with her punishment stick on the butt and she moved. Justin then asked where was the stick, Patrick replied < on top of the fridge. Justin then took it and broke it in half and told his brother to let Kristy know that if she ever hurts Riley like that again that she won't get away with it. Exactly one week later Pat and Kristy came to our home and Kristy accused Justin of abusing his Niece. She said that because Justin was sexually abused by a man at age 8 from our church, along with other boys, that he abused Riley because it has been written that someone who has been abused will abuse someone else. Not true. This put Justin into deep depression.
A:
Your son needs to confirm his registration status, and should check his judgment of conviction to see what exactly he has. MSP just enforces what is court-ordered, so there might be a miscommunication or misunderstanding somewhere between what your son and the court think.
The remainder of your question doesn't have anything to do with his registration requirements. Your son either went to trial and lost, or entered a plea; either way, his innocence isn't a factor now.
