"A civilly declared offender, however, could petition the court to have the person's name removed from the new list after six years if there have been no new problems and the judge believes the person is unlikely to abuse again."
But a civilly defined offender is one who criminal courts could not prove had abused in the first place ...
Fuck this, just another step down the authoritarian slope to totalitarianism. I remember the days when I idealistically believed it when my teachers told me that "our judicial system is based on the idea that we would rather let nine guilty men go free than convict the tenth, who is innocent."
