What are your thoughts on sexual predators and allowing them back into society?

A dear friend of mine lives next door to a sexual predator. She actually did a sexual predator search prior to moving in, however, he moved there after she did. The neighbors caught wind that he lives there, so if it is not scary enough that a predator is next door, neighbors have been harassing him to move out and creating more drama. What are your thoughts on sexual predators and allowing them back into society?

How does one answer that question? On one hand I would like to believe that everyone deserves a new start and a second chance. On the other hand I have to questions at whose expense does this second chance occur.

Sexual predators are dangerous. They prey on children, usually ones that they know. Would I be comfortable living nest to a sexual predator if I had small children? That answer is definitely NO! I would not. I do not know what the answer to this question is, but do you risk the lives of children to give a sexual predator another chance? I guess my answer would be no.

Maybe if our laws required them to be medically altered or monitored we, as a society would feel more comfortable. It is well known that they repeat their crimes over and over again. There is no real evidence that they are ever “cured”, so I really do not know the answer to the question, I only know that I would not want to live near a sexual predator, whether or not I had children.

Sexual predators should be handled on a case-by-case scenario. Each person should be analyzed by what crimes they were charged with (and if there were any investigations that didn’t result in a charge) their criminal history, a psychiatric evaluation and whether this person has been to counseling for their behavior. From there, proper sentencing, residency restrictions and in some cases supervision should be administered.

While there are many repeat offenders, some do change from their ways and go on to live productive lives in society. In the end, there isn’t a clear-cut system in place to ensure people’s safety from sexual predators or on the other side, their chance to re-enter society.

In your friend’s case, the best thing to do is to stay on guard but at the same time do not harass the predator. Harassing could be counter-effective and lead them back to the behavior they got in trouble for in the first place.
