North Dakota Megan's Law
Being named after Megan Kanka, Megan's Law was put into federal law in 1995. Megan's Law makes it mandatory for each state
put a method in place for notifying the general public when a sexual offender is located in their area.
Megan was just seven years old when a previously convicted sex offender that was living accross the street from her family, kidnapped,
rapped, and killed her. It was concluded that if her family or other local residents had been alerted that a previous
sexual offender was residing in their community, this crime would've been avoided. On that train of thought, the U.S. Congress
enacted the "Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994", nicknamed Megan's Law, without any protests.
Since the law was enacted, North Dakota has strived to protect its supplying the most up to date information
relating to past sexual offenders and their whereabouts. The law has proven that though sexual offenses are still a
problem in the U.S., offenses committed by previous offenders are on a downturn.
