This week on Registry Matters: a South Carolina church implodes after a registrant volunteer scandal at Pawleys Island touches off arrests, lawsuits, and institutional panic — a case study in how quickly fear dismantles a congregation. We also break down Louisiana’s ballot measure to constitutionally ban post-conviction bail for minor-related offenses, stripping judges of individualized discretion in every case, and examine a Kansas appellate ruling that struck lifetime supervision as unconstitutionally disproportionate for a young man’s minimal offense while leaving twenty-five-year registration intact under existing precedent.

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.
