United States v. Webster, No. 15-1045 (1st Cir. 2016)
Annotate this CaseIn 2007, Appellant was convicted of attempted gross sexual assault and solicitation of a child by computer. Thereafter, Appellant was convicted for failing to register as a sex offender. In 2012, Appellant pleaded guilty to charges in federal district court arising from his failure to register as a sex offender in violation of the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA). In 2014, Appellant pleaded guilty in federal district court to violating the conditions of supervised release imposed on him due to his SORNA violation. Appellant was sentenced to a term of incarceration and a term of supervised release subject to a number of conditions. Appellant appealed the conditions that he participate in sex offender treatment and undergo random periodic polygraph exams if required by the therapeutic program. The First Circuit affirmed the district court’s imposition of sex offender treatment and polygraph examination, holding that those conditions were warranted by Appellant’s individual characteristics and were necessary to achieve the goals of supervised release.
The court issued a subsequent related opinion or order on April 21, 2016.
