Scott Ibarra had no idea he was wrongly listed as a sex offender until a pal pointed it out. A year later, the local cops still won't tell him how it happened. Ibarra's name, the address of his Joliet home and his physical description were placed in the state's sex offender registry under a charge of aggravated criminal sexual assault for a month and 10 days in 2008. "I had no clue about any of this stuff that was in there," the 37-year-old said of being incorrectly included in the state's list of sex offenders. In fact, Ibarra, 37, said he only learned he was on the state's list of sex offenders after a police officer he is friends with alerted him to it exactly a year ago, on Oct. 14, 2008. [Ed.: this could happen to anyone, including you or your son or husband.] (10/24/09)
