Description

In the next installment of this popular series, Peter Afrasiabi highlights some crazy, weird criminal, family, tort and regulatory laws that you can’t believe are still on the books. Examples include laws that criminalize adultery for both spouses and their lovers, require fortune tellers to meet a residency requirement, prohibit the sharing of online passwords and perhaps most shockingly, create a potential “law-free” zone in a corner of Yellowstone National Park where no federal venue exists to prosecute offenders.
