1. One is a block and half from our house |
|
We checked a while back and found that there is an offender close to our house. This was very disturbing news.

:scared:
It says the address is a Lot #, so I'm guessing it's the trailer park. "Indecent Liberties with a minor." Edit: this is about 1.5 miles from my house.
:scared:
There's one street in Durham where 3 different offenders live. Is it typical for ex offenders to all congregate on the same street?

7. Seems logical... they probably get tossed out of other neighboorhoods |
|
Fence off one state and put all the sex offenders there... just like George Carlin said.

4. It says I have one near me on 14th street, but there is no 14th street. |
|
There is no 14th street in Philly. Broad Street is in between 13th and 15th. Weird. What does concern me is that there is another one right around the corner from me. I might have to look into this.

9. But what constitutes a sex offender? |
|
In Texas, it can be simply working in a sex shop. According to that database, there are about 30 in my zip code. Can't all be rapists.

they all seem to be in for incest or "indecent liberties by a custodian." So much for the safety of the suburbs.

18. That doesn't cover California |

No such tool for us golden-stater's?
Personally I don't put too much credence on these sorts of things anyway. One of my best friends is a "convicted sex offender". His crime? He went to a club with another friend of ours and picked up a very attractive young woman, they all got toasted, and he ended up sleeping with her. When he woke up the next morning, the woman was gone.
Turned out, the "woman" was a very mature looking 16 year old girl who'd gotten into the club with a fake ID. The girl told one of her friends what had happened, the friend told her mother, and the mother responded by having charges filed against him (he was 24 at the time). He was convicted by a judge who felt that you should never sleep with someone unless you've met their parents, but the case was handed off to another judge for sentencing. That judge called his conviction a "travesty" and gave him the minimum sentence, 30 days in jail and six months probation.
All in all, it hasn't harmed him in any significant way EXCEPT that he now shows up on these lists. He's had a few problems because of it over the years (turned down for a few jobs, had a neighbor freak out on him once), but tries to downplay it for the most part.
The definition of "sex crime" varies from state to state, so make sure you're not villifying anyone until you know EXACTLY what they were actually convicted of.

29. But the description of the crime is there |
|
I am most worried about the crimes committed against children. I think most of the guys listed are serious offenders. A guy in the situation you described is unfortunate but I don't think it is the norm. The same thing almost happened to a fraternity brother of mine in college until just before things got serious we found out from her friend that they were seniors at the local high school. She was 17.

35. bastard who raped my friend |
|
Is on the list in my zip code. She never reported it to the police, so he must have done the same thing to someone else, who thankfully DID report his fucking piece of shit scumbag ass. I'm happy he's on the list, but pissed as hell that he's not rotting in jail, as he should be. He's only going to do it again!
Jesus, what a world we live in...I kind of wish I hadn't looked at that page. Oh well, too late now. :mad:
