More Sex Offenders in the City
The City of Indianapolis says the park District will enforce its sex offender ordinance, even though Park District Director Joe Wynns told ME otherwise during a Friday interview. City Attorney Kobi Wright told me the city will enforce any law on the books and I misunderstood Wynns remarks. He said the Park District rangers would enforce the ordinance that fines sex offenders who come near parks and playgrounds. When asked about the ordinance on Friday, Wynn told me “they were not in the sex offender business.” Wright said today that the Park District would not go door-to-door to enforce the ordinance, but would write tickets, along with the Indianapolis Police Department and the Marion County Sheriff’s Department. According to city officials on any given shift there are two to three rangers on duty. I feel safe.
