UPDATE: See 89 New Laws Take Effect Friday 6-29-2011 SORNA way down list "SB 37 (House Sub.) makes several changes to the Kansas Offender Registration Act (the Act) to bring Kansas into compliance with the federal Adam Walsh Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA)."5-10-2011 Kansas:
A bill advanced by the Kansas House would bring the state into compliance with national reporting regulations for sex offenders.
The House on Thursday passed a Senate bill that sets national standards for registering and publicizing the names, addresses and workplaces of those who commit crimes against children.
Currently, offenders in Kansas have 10 days to report to law enforcement when they move, change jobs or go to a new school. The bill shortens that to three days.
Complying with federal standards will make Kansas eligible for $300,000 in federal funding to improve law enforcement access to offender databases. ..Source.. by cjonline.com

And yet another state willing to get into bed with the devil.This wont work we all know it wont work and the ironic thing is that this will bankrupt Kansas.
What Angers me is the fact that, even though a person was SENTENCED to register for only 10 years, now has to register for life. One month away from being done, now has to do it for life. After proving himself and doing what everyone has asked and has proved himself a tax paying citizen who has paid his debt to society, now has to do this for life. How can they change his sentencing and tell him well now you have to do it this way even though the judge said do it this way. Pure crap. And a FIRST DEGREE MURDER ONLY HAS TO REGISTER FOR 15 YEARS. Anyone DEEMED a Sex offender registers for life. I understand we have to protect children and fellow neighbors but I believe this whole issue is crap.
