On this episode of registry matters…. we unpack International Megan’s Law—how passport identifiers, advance travel notifications, and cross-border data sharing actually work, who’s covered (especially PFRs with offenses involving minors), and what it means for international travel; examine how overconfidence from limited knowledge—the Dunning–Kruger effect—distorts public debate on crime policy and civil liberties; and break down the startling Arizona case where an inmate was mistakenly released 22 years early on fraudulent court papers, exploring what went wrong, what happens next, and the accountability questions now in play.

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.
