Maryland legislature passes bill banning registered juvenile sex offenders from schools

Annapolis, Md. (WBFF) — Certain juveniles sex offenders will no longer be allowed to attend Maryland public schools in person. Legislation that just passed in Annapolis aims to make school safer following an alarming Fox45 News investigation.

“I'm really pleased with the final product. I think it's the right thing that protects students in schools and makes sure that everybody's rights are protected,” said Senate President Bill Ferguson who promised to get the bill passed.

It took just 72 days for Maryland lawmakers to fulfill that promise.

“It did happen quick,” said Delegate Nino Mangione. “It was a shocking story that you guys did a great job with, and it proves that we can be bipartisan. We can come together and get important things done when need be.”..

  1. A rather tepid comment considering the gravity of this issue.
    "There is one final step that needs to happen before this bill officially becomes law. Governor Wes Moore will have to sign it, which he has indicated that he will. It would then take effect this fall."
