A male family member caught a misdemeanor charge of 2nd Degree Sexual Misconduct, as a juvenile, I believe back in 2007.
He has complied with all state and federal statutes in registering as a sexual offender, and only has to register for one more year under current law. He was assessed at the lowest possible risk category, and as a juvenile his record isn't public (basically, the police question him any time there's an unsolved sexual crime in the area).
The last time he went to renew his registration, a sheriff's deputy informed him that he is not permitted internet access. They also told him that they planned to inform his employer of his offense.
Now I've been digging as deep as possible into Arkansas Code, and have found nothing mentioned about any of the actions the sheriff's office intend to take.
Does anyone know of anything in the current federal statutes that prohibit offenders from accessing the internet, or any statutes which require employer notification?
