Prevents Perverts ? Punishment or Invasion of Privacy ?

Postby GOLTZBORG » Fri Apr 22, 2011 10:33 am

OOC: Think of how many communities in the Real World require a known convicted sex offender to post a note on his or her residence, as well as notify neighbors as to their past acts of sexual misconduct.

In your nation, are there laws whereby a convicted sexual preditor is required to make public his or her past digressions; either by posting a notice on his or her residence, and/or else notifying his or her neighbors of their past ?

No. Criminal records are not available to the public. Businesses may request (but not always recieve) them when doing a background check on a employee (or a possible one), but otherwise the only way a person will find out that his/her neighbor was convicted for, say, assault is if his/her neighbor (or someone who already knows about it) tells him/her.

No but the sex offender is placed on the Sex Offender Registry which is publicly avaliable. If the sex offnder commits further acts then his neighbours will be notified of his crimes after he is released from jail.

There is no need to post a notice on his residence because jail will be his new residence.

I'm leery at answering this, as a judge would of probably given out the death sentence, but if they DID go to jail and they DID survive, and got out, then no. The Government records are the Governments only, and giving them out to people for any excuse is not what's done in Geckocidron.

No, registries of crimes are for the consumption of law enforcement only. Anything else would make them go underground and make the situation worse.

Not just sex offenders. Every offender is expected to make his crimes known to the public. Otherwise, how can he be rehabilitated and re-integrated into society?

Desipite their rather sickening crimes, we are no more permitted than they are to breach ones rights than they have done to one poor victim, which is to say, we are not permitted, so no, we do not.
Otherwise, are we better than they are in their crimes?

In theory, sexual predators would be marked as such with a "brand" on his/her forehead or back of hand. However, since the offenses severe enough to require this are punishable by death (either through plank-walking or high-altitude lynching), it is more of a vestigial policy.

They are not required to inform anyone however all criminal offenses and offenders are listed in police database which is publicly available: and anyone may go and see it. The police database on criminals is wiped clean every 1000 years. While some may claim it as invasion of privacy, our response has been quite simple 'you should have thought about that before committing crime'

The Emirate of Kharuyan maintains strict laws aregarding sexual crimes, with especially harsh punishments for sexual assault crimes. Most violent sex crimes including rape, sodomy and forced fellatio incur the death penalty.

Lower level sex crimes includnig pandering, prostitution, harassment and low level sexual assault incur hard time with forced labor. Following release, depending on the type of offense, require mandatory sex offense registration along witb parole reporting for a frequency and duration as determined by the releasing Arbiter. Alternatively, male offenders may volunteer for chemical castration, which disables their reproductive systems and suppresses sex drive for months per treatment dose. The participation duration is determined by the releasing Arbiter. The frequency of treatment & evaluation is determined by the releasing Arbiter with guidance from a medical expert.

However, our police forces are stretched thin because we are a small nation, thus some nonviolent sex crime laws, especially prostitution/pandering are vastly under-enforced.

This, essentially. Xanthal's is more of a pragmatic justice system than a penal one, but the principle is the same: if you're deemed fit to release back into society, the only point of tagging you is to publicly humiliate and stigmatize you. If you were fit to release, that is only going to make it harder for you to be an integrated and contributing member of society, which in the view of Xanthalian justice is counterproductive. If people need to be watching their children around you, you shouldn't have been released to begin with.

No. Everyone - regardless of his or her past - has the right to privacy.

Proposals to publicise the whereabouts of registered sex offenders have been restricted due to the risk of vigilante attacks against them, and Minoa doesn't have Fatwas.

Criminal records are not disclosed to the public, unless proper requirements are met, and paperwork is filled out. Businesses may ask for them.

In Distruzio, sexual offenders are required to register unless they are voluntarily castrated. After castration, the requirements are dropped.

In the USRES sex offenders are going to, in a best case scenario, work the rest of their lives in mines.
At this very moment, there are people complaining about Gaddaffi through the use of their signature. If you wish to criticize Gaddaffis' government even though it won't make a difference to anyone and say that you support the Libyan civilians even though all you do is put a signature on a random forum, then copy paste this into your signature!

Sex offenders are sentenced to castration then sentenced to twenty-five years in a concentration camp. Severe cases will be sentenced to death by firing squad. After serving their punishment, sex offenders are required to register in the national database of sex offenders and criminals and make their crimes known to their neighbours in their homes.

Notices are not required and vigilante attacks are forbidden unless the sex offender commits another crime. By then if he survives the attack, he will be sentenced to death. Only in rare cases will the judge sentence him to life imprisonment in a concentration camp.
