Megan's
Law Flaws

California's Megan's Law provides the public
with certain information on the whereabouts of sex offenders
so that members of our local communities may protect themselves
and their children. Megan's Law is named after seven-year-old
Megan Kanka, a New Jersey girl who was raped and killed by
a known child molester who had moved across the street from
the family without their knowledge. In the wake of the tragedy,
the Kankas sought to have local communities warned about sex
offenders in the area. All states now have a form of Megan's
Law.

Strained Relationship Between
Dave Hawk and Police

Rocky Pipkin, from the Pipkin Detective Agency,
says all the back and forth between police and Hawk is a good
indication that they're relationship is strained, "This
posturing in front of the media will have some effect on the
surface, but like I mentioned, law enforcement is working
overtime on this and when you bring in the FBI, IRS ... they're
treating this as a very serious matter and they're going to
get to the bottom of it."

A father
is home for the holidays thanks to PDA

|
"Womack decided
about a year ago that she'd had enough of trying to find her
father, but a fellow parishioner at the church she attends changed
her mind by informing her that hiring a private investigator
here wasn't that expensive."
"So I opened the Yellow Pages," she
said. And while the first investigator couldn't take her case,
he did refer her to Rocky Pipkin, owner of the Pipkin Detective
Agency in Visalia. 12/9/03

of thanks from Jennifer Womack
