Man Posts Sex Offender Photo on MySpace
Ironically, it is immediately unclear to me that if the DOJ had continued to allow Kevin Pulsen's Sex Offender Registry "scraping code" to do what it was designed to do (detect child predators and sex offenders trying to use MySpace), whether or not this kind of issue would have been detected earlier, or not.
An AP newswire article, via The Boston Globe, reports that:
A man who posted his own sex offender registry photo on the social networking site MySpace.com is back behind bars.More here.
Christian Paul Dutton, 47, of Wheeling, was arrested in September for trespassing at an elementary school but later released. He was arrested again Wednesday on charges of failing to register his MySpace account with the State Police.
Dutton, who served more than six years after a 19'84 conviction in Ohio for attempted rape, had registered on the site under the name "Bubba."
He is required to register as a sex offender for life.
