RM393: Unpacking the 48% Recidivism Myth

This week on Registry Matters: We unpack the 48% recidivism myth as California considers lengthening parole for registrants, examining how the proposal collides with actual recidivism data, bipartisan politics, and the fading pressure of prison overcrowding. We also explore why court wins don’t end the registry, and why Michigan will likely pass a new registry despite the recent ruling, since courts cannot stop legislatures from legislating.

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.
