Alabama Sex Offender Law Under Fire | Birmingham News

Description

A federal appeals court has ordered Alabama to re-examine its controversial law that bars registered sex offenders convicted of child pornography from living with or even staying overnight with their children — even if they’ve shown no further wrongdoing. The ruling, stemming from a father’s lawsuit, demands the highest constitutional scrutiny, forcing the state to prove this permanent ban is the only way to protect kids. While the court didn’t strike down the law, it sent it back for a deeper look, highlighting the tension between parental rights and public safety — and setting the stage for a potentially landmark legal battle.
