Two unusual cases before city courts on this week highlight the extremes some criminals will go.
In one, a registered sex offender beat a man in Fells Point who he mistakenly thought posted notices around the neighborhood about his record. It took one hour for District Judge Askew Gatewood to find Francis Myers, 46, guilty of second degree assault and sentence him to six months in jail.
Prosecutors said Myers repeteadly hit the victim in the head with a metal pipe. At the time, Myers was on parole for second degree rape and second degree sex offense, and had prior convictions for assault, arson, disorderly conduct, resisting arrest, and possession of a deadly weapon. ..Source..

NY- Jury: NY sex offender beat up wary neighbor
Secondary dissemination is a problem because rarely is it truthful. i.e., according to what the law allows. As such it gets into a new area of law libel and slander. Although we do not know what exactly what was posted (words) beyond a picture, all around people get upset and this is a likely result.
10-30-2009 New York:
WATERLOO, N.Y. — A registered sex offender has been convicted of beating up a neighbor in a small-town apartment complex in upstate New York for posting fliers warning about his criminal past.
There is a major difference between "Warning someone" and "Informing someone." This is why it is best to refer folks to what the state posts, if doing anything at all.
William Meacham, his sister Stephanie and family friend Marvin Snyder were found guilty Thursday of gang assault on 35-year-old Adrian Porter, who was left with brain trauma, a broken nose and facial fractures.
They could get up to 25 years in prison at sentencing Dec. 21.
Authorities say Porter was confronted in the complex’s parking lot in Seneca Falls in September 2008 after he posted the fliers showing state sex-offender registry photographs of Meacham. ..Source.. by Boston Hearld.com
