State v. Smith

Court of Appeals of Washington

Decided February 18, 2015No. 45432-7-IIPublishedCited by 14 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

¶1 — Following a bench trial, the trial court found Christopher Roy Smith guilty of failure to register as a sex offender.1 Smith appeals his conviction, asserting that the sex offender registration statute, RCW 9A.44.130, is unconstitutional on its face and as applied to him because the statute is overbroad and burdens his fundamental right to travel. Smith also asserts that the State failed to present sufficient evidence to support his conviction. Because the sex offender registration statute is constitutional and sufficient evidence supports Smith’s conviction, we affirm.
