Currently Bates County has 5 registered sex offenders that this law applies to.
Five years ago, Missouri legislators passed a set
of controversial restrictions on registered sex offenders meant to
protect trick-or-treaters on Halloween.
Missouri’s rules have been well publicized ,
requiring registered sex offenders to turn off their exterior lights at
5 p.m., and stay inside their homes until 10:30 p.m. Offenders must
also post signs warning would-be trick-or-treaters that they would find
no candy at their homes.
Officials say warning kids about which homes to stay away from is the best way to keep them safe, Fleming explained.
