Sex Offenders Not Welcomed

Riverhead officials have gone to court to force Suffolk County to remove a trailer for sex offenders from behind a fence at the Riverhead County Jail, charging that the housing is illegal because it is less than 1,000 feet from a town park. But, county officials say that it's not really a park at all, just a some open space along the Peconic River. On top of that, the trailer for the homeless men was there first.
