SHEBOYGAN FALLS-- Sheboygan County's Health and Human Services Board has ruled that a convicted child sex offender can run a group home for 2 developmentally disabled adults.

Paul Straw was convicted of child sexual assault 10 years ago. His victim and several others organized to protest his group home in Sheboygan Falls.
