I'm a WHAT?

During criminal records checks at least 1,500 people (more likely 3,000) in Britain were falsely identified as sex offenders. The government said the errors were regrettable but refused to apologize. After all, why should a government apologize for falsely labeling someone a sex offender? That can't have too much an effect on his life and livelihood, Can it?

In case anyone out there needs this warning: This ain't legal advice. Everything in the blog is off the cuff and no one goes back and reads all the cases and statutes before blogging. The law may have changed; cases misread and misunderstood two years ago can still lead to a clinging misperception. Courts in your county, city, or State probably don't operate as described herein. Feel free to be inspired, but YOU MUST ALWAYS DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH OR HIRE A COMPETENT ATTORNEY TO DO SO because I haven't.
