SoCal Judge Blocks Part Of Jessica’s Law

The judge says the law’s restrictions may undermine public safety.

LOS ANGELES — The law restricting sex offenders from living within 2,000 feet of parks and schools has been temporarily blocked by a California judge. The ruling halts enforcement of portions of the measure known as Jessica’s Law. It forbids sex offenders from residing within 2,000 feet of a public or private school, or a park where children gather. Superior Court Judge Peter Espinoza’s ruling this week says parolees are forced to become homeless or go to prison because the law gives them few housing options.

DUNEDIN — Detective John Grubb was off-duty, strolling the Publix. He grabbed the bananas, the zucchini, and headed to the pharmacy to pick up a prescription for his boxer, Maxine. Another shopper caught his attention. Grubb knew Thomas Manning Hook was a registered sex offender. He knew Hook had a history of impersonating cops. Then Grubb saw something that made him abandon his shopping cart: Hook had a sheriff’s badge clipped to his waist.

Grubb thought: This guy has to be stopped.
