NEW YORK STATE -- The State Senate has passed several bills aimed at stopping sex offenders from slipping through the cracks.


One bill requires all level three sex offenders to be tracked using GPS technology. The Division of Criminal Justice Services would monitor the devices.


Other bills include prohibiting level three offenders from moving to a home within 500 feet of a school and making it illegal for first time offenders to apply for a job where they would have access to children.


All of the bills now move on to the Assembly for consideration.
