This week on Registry Matters: Michigan’s Supreme Court ruled that retroactive sex offense registration is unconstitutional punishment, immediately erasing the pre-2011 registry and removing thousands of people from it. We break down what the decision means, who it covers, and how quickly relief actually reaches registrants on the ground. Then we turn to Minnesota, where courts held that the state cannot force someone onto the predatory offender registry based on a charge that ended in acquittal.

The Registry Matters Podcast’s mission is to cover issues surrounding the Registry. We cover cases that will peel back the veneer of what we need to do to change our lives for the better. We cover news articles that spark conversations about the total insanity of this modern day witch hunt. This podcast will call out bad policy and call out those that are making bad policy.
To change things for the positive, we need to act. We are 6-7-8-900k strong. With that many people, plus their friends and family, over a million people are affected by the registry. We should be able to secure donations to hire lawyers and lobbyists to move the agenda in our favor. We need our people to be represented.
