OKLAHOMA CITY - The High Noon Club debates a state law prohibiting sex offenders from living together.
Senate Bill 852 forced many sex offenders living at the compound known as Hand Up Ministries out of their homes.
In the past, CEO David Nichols says two or three offenders would share a trailer on the property, but the language in the bill now prohibits sex offenders from living in a single housing unit together.
Rep. Paul Wesselhoft worries state lawmakers may have passed SB 852 without hearing enough information about what it would mean for public safety.
Nichols says since the bill passed, sex offenders have left the compound to live in tents in the woods around Oklahoma City. Nichols says the bill which was meant to improve accountability of sex offenders has failed.
Coming up on the Primetime News at Nine, why Oklahoma City Councilman Ed Shadid says the police department pushed for the bill.
