LOVES PARK (WIFR) -- Police say sex offenders in Loves Park rushed to register last month before the city imposed a higher fee. Sex offenders now have to pay one hundred dollars a year instead of thirty dollars.
That money is used for sexual abuse awareness training and education. Right now, Illinois sex offenders must register for ten years. However, a bill to change that law to 15 years is pending in the senate.
Rodney Scott, Loves Park Police, says, "It's been on the books, I think, since January first that has allowed the city to do this. We're just doing it now because we did upgrade our sex offender software and we thought it would be a good time to do it.”
Loves Park will use the money from sex offenders to help pay for its new computer software. The city has 47 registered sex offenders. ..Source.. by WIFR.com
