Legal Question in Criminal Law in New Jersey

Registered Sex Offenders

I just found out my daughter's boss was convicted of criminal sexual contact of a minor in Florida in 1995. He appears on the Florida registry. He owns the business where my daughter works and lives in NJ and lived here at the time of the conviction. How come he does not appear on the registry for NJ? I would not have let my daughter take this job had I known he had been convicted of this. The NJ registry info states that anyone convicted of criminal sexual contact with a minor after October 1994 is require to register, but he is not. He lived in NJ at the time of conviction in 1995 as this is indicated on the Florida registry.

If this is something you feel strongly about then you should notify the police to investigate this. If he has violated his Megan's Law registration requirements, he can be arrested and charged with a violation of the criminal code.

Re: Registered Sex Offenders

The type of registration the person is required to comply with is based on his risk classification, or "tier". Not all sex offenders are subject to the same registration and community notice rules. I would require further information, such as his tier classification, in order to give an opinion about whether he is following the rules.

But more important, you are obviously creeped out having your daughter work for this guy. What is her opinion? Does she feel endangered? Is the job worth it to her?
