Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit February 28, 2012, No. 11-1977 (United States v. Rogers)

ORDER

If Terrell Rogers had kept “walking down the street, he would not have been arrested,” as his probation officer would later tell the court. But when Rogers — a convicted sex offender — stopped walking and waited with his friend outside her child’s school, he violated an Illinois law forbidding child sex offenders from loitering in a school zone. See 720 ILCS § 5/11-9.3.
