my problem with the whole thing is this!

i hope he fights it and WINS.

based on this!

"Muscare first committed a crime against a 14 year old Orange County boy in 1986. Back then, Muscare worked as a television host and was first arrested in San Diego. Muscare was sentenced to 2 1/2 years imprisonment plus 10 years supervised probation"

no i'm no math wizard but 1986 +2.5+10 would put him into 1998-1999 for his sentence/probation to be over. So WHY is he still on it almost 11 more years later? that would be 20 years trying to do 10 years probation. Plus of couse we come back to the fact he didn't use the internet for his crime. The supreme court has ruled probation requirement have to have some FACTUAL basis in relation to the crime comitted. So a blanket internet restriction is ILLEGAL.

i'm sorry unless the govt can show some LEGAL reason he's still doing his 10 years probation 20 years AFTER it started this is a crime on the part of the govt!
