HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) - Connecticut and at least a dozen other states are considering whether to require convicted sex offenders to register their e-mail addresses as part of efforts to combat online sexual predators.
Three states — Virginia, Arizona and Kentucky — already require sex offenders to provide law enforcement with their e-mail addresses, as well as their home addresses.
The bills have support from the popular social networking site MySpace.com, which has been under increasing pressure to ferret out convicted child molesters and stop them from creating online profiles.
