Judge rules on difficulty for sex offenders to live in Brooklyn

Written By Unknown on Senin, 06 Oktober 2014 | 18.18

Forcing sex offenders to stay 1,000 feet away from schools, playgrounds and daycare centers if they were convicted before that state law was enacted is unconstitutional, a new Brooklyn Supreme Court ruling has found.

A startling map in a petition submitted by a Brooklyn man, who used the pseudonym Michael Devine in court filings, illustrates the near-impossibility for offenders to move around the school-dense borough.

Almost the entire map of Brooklyn is dotted in red, showing that it's off-limits to convicted creeps.

Devine was convicted in 2002 of sexually assaulting a 17-year-old girl, and was released from prison in 2008.

Judge Yvonne Lewis ruled on Sept. 29 that the state law violated Devine's rights because he was convicted three years before it was enacted in 2005 — and the restriction is a form of retroactive punishment.
