密苏里州总检察长 Catherine Hanaway 办公室在万圣节前公布了该州对性犯罪登记者的法律限制以及登记册的公开查询安排。依据密苏里州法律第 589.426 条，性犯罪登记者在 10月31日晚 5时至 10时 30分期间须留在自己家中（因工作或紧急情况外出者除外），须关闭住宅户外照明，并在住所张贴告示说明此处不提供糖果；其中有关告示与照明的部分要求此前已被 Sanderson v.

Missouri Attorney General Announces Halloween Rules for Registered Sex Offenders: Stay-Home Requirement on Oct. 31; Registry Public Year-Round
Missouri Attorney General Catherine Hanaway's office announced ahead of Halloween the legal restrictions that apply to registered sex offenders in the state and the public's options for checking the registry. Under Section 589.426 of Missouri law, registered sex offenders must remain inside their homes between 5 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. on Oct. 31 unless they are at work or responding to an emergency, must turn off outdoor residential lighting, and must post a sign stating there is no candy or treats at the residence; a previous requirement governing signage and lights was struck down by a court in Sanderson v. Bailey, and the attorney general's office outlined the current rules accordingly. The Missouri sex offender registry is public information that can be searched year-round by name, address or ZIP code, and reports can be filed with the registry enforcement unit. The announcement, issued Oct. 23 and updated Oct. 24, is part of the attorney general office's regular pre-Halloween public information releases.
