She should be honored more than she was. Even the moniker of Black Dhalia did her a bit of disservice and the sensational portrayal changed the narrative to Hollywood gossip.
Such a sad case. I never realized that this case was what began the sex offender registry. Thanks for sharing.

Sex offender registration has been expanded so much that even a minor crime can be grounds for registration. Urination in public is one such crime because children may be present. In many states, there is no way to get off the registry, and the restrictions are draconian.

Thanks for ur comment 👍

But yet in Idaho they let the real predators plead to injury to a child instead and then they don't have to register at all.

The sex offender registry is much more harmful than helpful. Dozens of studies have shown that registering kids who have committed sexual offenses with minors does not reduce sexual, violent, or nonviolent reoffending, or deter first-time sex crimes. Instead, it creates substantial barriers for kids, increases their own risk of harm, and limits their success as adults.
