Last week in California, the Simi Valley City Council repealed a 2012 ordinance that would have prevented registered sex offenders on the California Megan’s Law website from opening their doors to trick-or-treating children.
City leaders cited the fact that the ordinance would have been overturned in a legal appeal as a reason to repeal it. The ordinance had also banned registered sex offenders from decorating the outside of their homes or front lawns; they were supposed to keep off outdoor lighting from 5 p.m. to midnight on Halloween.
