General Information
This year's National Conference, hosted by RSOL New Mexico at the renowned Ramada Inn Conference Center in
Albuquerque, seeks to empower citizen-driven law reform groups to
better understand the complexity of current thinking on sex offender
registration issues and find workable options for change. Distinguished speakers will launch a collaborative think-tank of proven ideas and best approaches to making all communities safe and abuse-free.
The conference offers a unified approach to legislative advocacy and
volunteer-driven organizational development with topical expert
presentations and three distinct yet interrelated 'skill and awareness
building' paths through panel discussions and training workshops. The
workshops, panels, and forums, which may be mixed-and-matched at
discretion, are actually organized as mini-tutorials with each segment
building one upon the next under three headings:
- How lawmaking works and what advocates need to know to have an impact on the process
- What changes experts recommend regarding current sexual offense laws
- How to organize effective advocacy/support groups and grow professional communications networks
Featured Speakers
- Janice Bellucci, civil rights attorney and President, California Reform Sex Offender Laws
- Amy Borror, Public Information Officer for the Ohio Public Defender's Office
- Erin Comartin, doctoral candidate at Michigan's Wayne State University
- Dr. George Geysen, clinical and forensic psychologist who is an expert in the assessment and treatment of persons with problem sexual behavior and sexual offenses
- Melissa Hill, criminal appeals attorney representing the American Civil Liberties Union of New Mexico on the New Mexico Sentencing Commission's Sex Offender Management Board Defense Lawyers’ Association
- Dr. Eric A. Imhof, Psy.D., President/Clinical Director of Specialized Treatment and Assessment Resources, P. A.
- Tamara Rice Lave, former public defender and current Associate Professor, University of Miami School of Law
- Cisco McSorely, New Mexico Senator and Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee
- Norm Pattis, nationally acclaimed trial lawyer frequently sought as co-counsel for those who have unjustly been denied liberty
- Phil Taylor, licensed sex offender treatment provider who has worked with parolees and probationers for 20 years
In addition, several informal (and entirely optional) social events will
serve conference objectives by enhancing professional networking in
relaxed social environments. Several 'open sessions' will also allow
attendees time and space to interact directly with peers and experts.
Parents traveling with children may utilize child-care during conference
hours.

Ohio - How many sex offenders on the walk to school?
Seriously... lurking? All this hysteria is more than debilitating to our country. Shame, shame on the news coverage from Channel 2 News in Ohio.
Congrats to "ICAC" Cyber stings on establishing Florida as "The Pedophile Capital of the United States." Great Job, and I'm sure Florida tourism, thanks you also.
"Florida is now the Pedophile Capital of the US.
Recent numbers show that there has been a 74% increase in the number of sex
offenders as to only 23% for the rest of the nation over the past 5 years. Why
is that? Is this a title that Floridians should be proud of? And how come this hasn’t
raised any eyebrows? The problem is that Florida is creating sex offenders not
catching them by performing random stings into the general population every
month, and we are the only state doing such. Florida should not be in the
business of testing the will of law-abiding citizens with elaborate (if
improbable) fantasies involving any minor. See People v. Aguirre, No. G045009
(Cal. 4th DCA, April 5, 2012, and Lusby v. State, 507 So.2d 611 (1987).
Although there are pedophiles out there, we are
being led to believe that there is a much larger problem than there really is.
How come we are the only state that has such a problem? This is an epidemic
that has spiraled out of control. Why are counties that are netting the most
arrests receiving awards as if it were some kind of game? The true sex
predators, such as the Ronald Browns, are not lurking in the areas they say
they are catching them. Congratulations Floridians on your new title!" ~ FloridaCitizen

Subject: American Sex Offender's most important development since the fundraiser
Greetings all,
I am writing to announce the brand new Master Plan of my documentary film, American Sex
Offender, that is currently in production. I am sending this to every email
address imaginable and have been adding them to the list willy-nilly (sorry if
you are getting it 3286 times)... so some of you are intimately aware of the
project, and there may be some of you who haven't even heard about it.
Quick recap: About a month ago, my kickstarter fundraiser successfully raised more than $11K
from the generous donations of people who are close to this issue across the
nation. Since then I have been in hard-core planning mode, which has involved
spending a bunch of that money on video equipment, filming a few things,
consulting with film industry insiders, communicating with registrants and
their loved ones around the country, and making plans.
I have learned a lot and revamped and overhauled the plan
for this film accordingly... and I just posted a new blog describing where it's goin' from here. THIS IS
THE MOST IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENT SINCE THE FUNDRAISER ENDED, and I need your help
to spread the word. I hope that you will send the link to this blog entry to
your email lists and post it on your websites and copy/paste the summary that's
bolded in the 2nd paragraph everywhere you can. Facebook recently deleted my
personal page, declaring me "ineligible" for a page - the page I've
had for 6 years. This after just a month of vigorously promoting this cause and
putting myself out there as a "sex offender". I know that censorship
means I must be doing something right! I'd like you guys to share this on
Facebook too.
So go check out the blog and see what I'm talking about. The fundraiser
was just the beginning.. we need lots and lots of video submissions (and
probably a few more donations here and there) to make this film happen! I am
more excited and pumped than I've ever been in my whole life to be serving in
this way, and I'm still humbled at how much support I have already gotten.
Thank you.
Today I spoke on the phone to a man named Rod who is a
registrant, and just found out about the film. I was able to tell him about a
support meeting for registrants in his city - and it ended up being right down
the street! We laughed on the phone and I could hear the joy in his voice as I
told him how much support he really does have that he hasn't been aware of for
many years. Great things are happening guys. We are a MOVEMENT. Join my efforts
and submit your story. Tell people you know to do the same. Go to the support
meetings and town halls near you and write letters/call your representatives. I
can't tell you how much it will help.
