Indiana’s “serious sex offender” law prohibits sex offenders from entering school property. The Boone County Prosecutor and Sheriff have interpreted the law to prohibit these persons from attending church if there is any children’s programming on the premises. ACLU of Indiana filed a case in May 2016 that interpretation is both erroneous and violates Indiana’s Religious Freedom Restoration Act. The Court has ruled against plaintiffs and in favor of the statute. We are appealing the matter.
