Show Notes
Middleburg Heights, Ohio, has implemented a new city ordinance banning registered sex offenders and individuals convicted of violent crimes from public parks and recreation areas. The rule, which includes Tier one, two, and three sex offenders and a range of violent crimes, was introduced by Councilman Matthew McGregor and signed by the mayor. The ordinance, which allows offenders to enter only for public meetings, has been criticized for being poorly thought out and potentially unconstitutional. It expands on bans in nearby cities and aligns with state restrictions on sex offenders near schools and day cares, while state lawmakers consider adding no-loitering zones near victims homes.
