From the Billings Gazette:
Guns, sex, drugs and elder care took center stage Monday as state attorney general candidates Tim Fox and Steve Bullock made their cases to businessmen during a noon luncheon in Billings.
In a rare joint public appearance, the candidates to be Montana’s top lawyer called for improvements in the Department of Justice, though each cited different concerns. The two spoke to a crowd of roughly 100 people at a Billings Rotary event at Crowne Plaza.
Online registry
Fox, a Republican, focused on the state’s online sex offender registry, faulting Democrat Mike McGrath, the current attorney general, for not posting photos of each sex offender on the state Web site, www.doj.mt.gov/svor.
Fox said he would make sure there were photographs for all sex offenders published on the site as state law requires, then promised to notify interested Montanans by e-mail whenever a sex offender moved into their area.
