sex offenders lists

As we can see by the posts it is a very complex situation. I dont agree that these list should be made public, for the various reasons already stated. Before thinking of a solution you have to remember that most paedophiles never come to court. The offences take place within the family and most families 'hush' the situation. These people are already in your area. :(

My own opinion is that over and above the present conditions all families with children should be informed that a paedophile has moved into their area. Though the name and address should not be revealed. At least then parents would be more alert and vigilantism would be kept to a minimum.

Personally life on an island in the middle of the Atlantic with no visiting rights and no parole would be my ideal solution. Feeding them would be an option. :angry:

I would allow them to work to earn food and water. Other than that I have no problem with your solution.

Is vigilantism that high over in the UK? Even with the fact that you don't already publish the names and addresses?

Tbh I can't remember the offenders on the list for my area besides the fella down the street.

I dont know about other areas. But I have seen three innocent people hunted out of house and home in this area in the last 15 years. The real paedophiles were eventually caught. :) Of course everyone said that they were sorry and how were they to know. I have found most vigilantes who had no personal involvement in cases were only doing it to appear 'big' in the community.

Tbh he is the one who would stick in your mind.

Which is kind of the point, I'm sure you would agree.

1 every 5 years, to my mind is not enough reason not to publish the list.

Particularly if the "vigilantes" are dealt with as the criminals they are. Which would hopefully reduce the figure to none.

It's the ones who look entirely normal who are of greater concern.

The "who would have guessed" brigade.

WHAT THE FUCK!!!!

I see 2 fellas that I've played basketball with on that fucking list!!!!!

One is for Child Sex Abuse (even though he's young as shit himself) and one for 3rd Degree Sex Offense (he's older)!!!! :ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy:

They are both younger than me though. I wonder at what age they commited these offenses.

The older one is the same one always talking about all the bitches he gonna fuck and last year got a DUI.

He said he learned his lesson (the DUI) though but this is some shocking shit.
:ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy:

I agree JP. I remember a fellow who was a church elder, delivered all the old folks papers before he went to work in the morning. Pillar of society. One day he was off work and they required something he kept. They broke open his locker and found a cache of pics of young girls in various poses. It turned out he was not alone and a few others were also involved. He got the jail but I am not sure about the others.

I also remember a fellow in a village who was caught stealing boys underwear from lines. I heard later that he had been elected a tory councillor and was in charge of the village boys team. He was also the school janitor. It seems that some people turn a blind eye. :(
