View source for ACLU to challenge Indy molester ban

The Indianapolis City-County Council has approved an ordinance that bans convicted child molesters from playgrounds and other public places frequented by children. The ordinance takes effect immediately and requires anyone convicted of committing a sex crime against children to stay at least 1,000 feet from a public playground, recreation center, swimming pool, beach or sports facility when children are present. It includes an exception that permits sex offenders to visit those sites as long as they are with another adult who is not an offender. The American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana says it will challenge the ordinance because it imposes new punishment for a past crime.<br>
