Alaska Megan's Law
Being named after Megan Kanka, Megan's Law was put into federal law in 1995. Megans Law makes it mandatory for each state
put a method in place for informing the general public when a sexual offender is moves into their neighborhood.
Megan was just seven years old when a previous sexual offender that resided accross the street from her family, kidnapped,
violently rapped, and killed her. It was determined that if her family or other local residents had been aware that a previous
sexual predator was living in their neighborhood, this assult would have been thwarted. On that train of thought, the U.S. Congress
passed the "Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994", nicknamed Megan's Law, without any opposition.
Ever since the law was enacted, Alaska has gone out of its way to protect its supplying the most recent information
regarding past sexual offenders and their place of residence. The bill has shown that though sex crimes are still a
occuring in the United States, offenses committed by past offenders are on a regression.
