This guy has to register as a sex offender even though he was not convicted of a sex crime.

While in custody, he was told he would have to register as a sex offender under a state law that requires it whenever someone is convicted of a sex offense "or another offense arising out of the same set of circumstances."

Brian Gunderson was charged in 1998 in with first-degree criminal sexual conduct after a woman he met in a bar accused him of rape, the ruling said. Gunderson denied raping her but admitted they had a "physical altercation."

The physical evidence did not support the rape allegation, and that charge was dismissed.

So they have sex. Maybe they get into an argument afterwards and get into a fight, but no rape. Shouldn't he be charged with assault, but not be labeled a sex offender?? Jeebus.
