SADO and the ACLU Prepare Information Packet on SORA
In People v Paul Betts, the Michigan Supreme Court held that the 2011 Sex Offender Registration Act is unconstitutional ex post facto punishment. With the Court’s decision, SORA’s many requirements cannot be imposed against those whose offenses requiring registration came before the enactment of the 2011 SORA.
SADO and the ACLU have prepared an information packet to help members of the public navigate SORA. Get the info packet here.
