Oh, who are the people in your neighborhood?

Wisconsin has finally joined the majority of states by making sex offenders' last known addresses available. Check this site for a mapping tool of known offenders, and the state site for standard ZIP/name searches.

My g just did a story on this... angrydeeto December 19 2005, 17:05:55 UTC

I find this terrifying because I personally do not believe that a sex offender can be rehabilitated. I work with people who have been perp'd by these offenders after they have been "treated." The level of pathology inherint to these crimes is beyond anything we can effectively treat. Chemical castration does not work, nor does actual castration. Sex is the act, but not the drive or motivation for these perps. They should not be reintegrated back into the community! I will admit my solution for these perp's is very, very un-pc.

The zip codes are a faulty way of searching for perps they are artificial territories. I like the new searchable databases a lot more. This one was too good, it scared the crap ot of me.

I will never let my daughter go more than arm's length from my side anymore.

I am now stocking up on duct tape.

I found one across the street from the bus stop she and I use ALL THE TIME.

Eeep!

There are 2 in my direct neighborhood. I am P.O.'d.
It is a good thing I am not on prednisone, I might do something rash.

I lived in the apartment building where Gerald Turner was released in 1992ish. There were people picketing my building, and I guess once there were people stalking him in our laundry room.

I found one down the street from our house (his assault was on a child) and another behind my son's school (this one is for repeated assault of the same child). How can this person live right behind an elementary school?!?

There are several living uncomfortably close to us - not because we have children here (of course), but because we're 1/2 a block from an elementary school.
