MySpace Helps AG Crackdown On Sex Offenders:
Pennsylvania Attorney General Tom Corbett is in the process of possibly cracking down on 185 Pa. sex offenders that are on MySpace.
What is AG Corbett doing differently than most of the AG’s I’ve written about? He’s not grandstanding and he’s not putting the blame to MySpace to garner votes. (Unlike AG’s Blumenthal, Cuomo, and Cooper.)
“So we were able to discover who they were – at least MySpace was. Our concern is that there’s other people who are registered sex offenders that probably have MySpace accounts that there’s no way if they use an alias that we’re going to discover.”
Wow, he even addresses the issue of sex offenders using aliases on MySpace and he does it realistically.
Once the records from MySpace have been reviewed the AG’s office will be forwarding the information to the sex offenders’ parole officers.
Other AG’s should take note that this is how to get things done instead of pandering to clueless soccer moms.
Thanks to Gage for the tip.
