ANNOUNCEMENT: ONCEFALLEN TO DOWNSIZE SITE, DELETE REDUNDANT PAGES

In reviewing the sheer size of my website, I have found it difficult to keep such a large repository of useful info up-to-date and accurate while providing assistance for hundreds of Registered Persions and creating new material for the page. 

I created my book, Your Life on The List, back in 2020. It is hard to believe it has been 5 years ago now. 

The purpose of making the book was to compile the topics from this site (and elsewhere) that are of use to prisoners and those new to life on the registry in a convenient book form. 

The book contains a number of pages from my own website. However, while I regularly update the book, I neglect to update the corresponding pages. Therefore, I have decided that it is redunant to have both my book AND the webspages up, with the book being updated while web pages are not being updated.

Therefore, the following pages from my website are scheduled for deletion on 6/30/2025. I am trying to give ample warning to those who link to specific paes of my book. 

LET ME BE CLEAR, this is ONLY because the topics in these pages can be found in Your Life on The List and it is redundant to have both a webpage and a chapter or segment in my book covering this. 

Here are the pages subject to deletion:

Under "Resources for Registered Persons":


REGISTRY COMPLIANCE CHECKS AND CPS INVESTIGATIONS: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Page Link: https://oncefallen.com/police-cps-checks-rights/

Reason: Covered in YLOTL, Chapter 6


“The Troll Patrol:” Protecting yourself against vigilantism

Page Link: https://oncefallen.com/protect-yourself-from-vigilantes/

Reason: Covered in YLOTL, Chapter 8


The Traveling Registrant: Your Right of Travel as a Registered Person

Page Link: https://oncefallen.com/traveling-registrant/

Reason: Covered in YLOTL, Chapter 7


Under "Issues and Editorials"


CHILD CUSTODY/ VISITATION LAWS APPLICABLE TO REGISTERED PERSONS

Page Link: https://oncefallen.com/parental-rights-laws/

Reason: The info with corresponding state statutes are found in YLOTL APPENDIX 2: Summary of State/Territory Sex Offense Laws


BEING “ON PAPER”: A SUMMARY OF SUPERVISED RELEASE, PROBATION, PAROLE

Page Link: https://oncefallen.com/probation-parole/

Reason: Covered in YLOTL, Chapter 2


SECOND CHANCE ACT OF 2008

Page Link: https://oncefallen.com/second-chance-act/

Reason: It is simply old info and newer laws have enhanced or replaced most of the issues covered in this 2008 law. 


Under "Housing Lists and Legal Issues":


THE ONCE FALLEN FINDING HOUSING GUIDE

Page Link: https://oncefallen.com/finding-housing/

Reason: Covered in YLOTL, Chapter 3


And the page below will remain but it will be modified to remove info on the state statutes:

STATE ID CARD/ DRIVER’S LICENSE LAWS

Page Link: https://oncefallen.com/state-id-laws/

Reason: The info with corresponding state statutes are found in YLOTL APPENDIX 2: Summary of State/Territory Sex Offense Laws


I am keeping these pages up until 6/30/2025 for the few that still link yo them. HOWEVER, these pages contain much of the same info mentioned in my book and are merely being deleted for redundancy. This will only change where you must go to in order to find that info. 

My book, Your Life on The List, is a free download. Just go to oncefallen.com and you'll find it by scrolling down past the introduction. There is a big bold statement that says "YOUR LIFE ON THE LIST: 4TH EDITION", A REGISTRY SURVIVAL GUIDE, NOW AVAILABLE, right under that is a big green button that says, CLICK HERE TO GET THE YLOTL4 FREE PDF VERSION

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: OnceFallen.com to enter transitional period to modernize website, most services to be unchanged

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT CONCERNING ONCEFALLEN.COM'S WEBSITE

On 31 March 2021, the service I have been using for over 13 years will no longer support the software I have used this entire time to update the website. The site has to be "modernized" for mobile phone compatibility. So, for a few weeks, OnceFallen.com will not be updated with the latest information as the necessary changes are made. The website will remain online but in a "frozen" or "archived" state until these changes are made. This means I won't be able to update my most frequent pages, namely my Housing Lists and my Corrlinks ICoN monthly newsletters. However, this website is NOT shutting down, and I'll continue to provide the same assistance I have done during this period of transition. Until the changes are complete, I will post any important info, like new housing leads and ICoN monthly newsletters, at this blog. 

I have made numerous updates to the website and will continue to make updates until the end of the month. 

My latest update for the PDF version of "Your Life on The List", the March 2021 Version, is available on my site now at:

http://www.oncefallen.com/files/Your_Life_on_The_List_PDF_Free_March_2021.pdf
