What do I do if I've a s*x offender as neighbor!

Question

He's 60 year old and is a s*x offender. He has a police record here in New Jersey and in Pennsylvania. He was born in Minnesota and was expelled.

I'm 18 y/o and have a little sister, she's 6 and I'm outraged!, In this 'great country'. Shouldn't he be in prison?

Thanks and greetings! Johnny!.

Answer 1

spread the word around the neighbourhood and see what happens

Answer 2

apparently he did his time for whatever he did.

the alternative is to not have a directory at all.

anyway, maybe he just got caught peeing in public, or something like that.

or maybe he couldn't care less about girls, but likes teen boys!

or maybe he is just living his life, just like anyone else in your neighborhood, and you should MYOB.

Hint don't do anything stupid with your 18 year old testosterone and "outrage" flowing through you.

Answer 3

avoid him but dont fear him. if he behaves in an innapropriate manner then report him to the authorities but otherwise dont worry.the perverts usually learn their lesson .x

Answer 4

As long as he is registered, and does what he's supposed to do legal-wise, about the only things you can do:

1-Inform anyone and everyone in your neighborhood.  Just make sure you have the facts straight.

2 - Make sure your little sister knows to stay away from this man.

Prison is too good for pedophiles

PS- "s*x offender" is a very broad term.  A young man (18) can be labeled this for having consensual s*x with his 17 yr old girl friend.  So make sure you get all the facts on this guy.

Answer 5

I KNOW WHAT I WANT TO TELL YOU TO DO, BUT YOU WOULD BE IN TROUBLE YOURSELF..

I THINK THE ONLY THING YOU CAN DO IS TELL EVERYONE IN YOUR AREA,SO YOU ALL KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON HIM.  

Answer 6

Stay away from him and let you neighbors know also!

Answer 7

Hi Johnny,

Do you know his crimes? What does him being born in Minnesota or getting expelled from school half a century ago have anything to do with your question?

Do you know if he did go to prison? Are you a judge? Can you decide who goes to prison and who does not?

This is a great country that allows punishments to fit the crime. This guy is still being punished by being on this list even if he is not a pedophile or predator.  

Child abduction is very rare. Most child molestation occurs with someone they know and they groom them over a period of time. So unless he starts babysitting your sister, I am sure she is fine.

I am sure he just wants to live his life without being hassled by anyone. I am sure he is embarrassed of his status.  

Answer 8

This country is great because it provides opportunties for all.  This guy, whose crime is horrible, likely paid his debt to society and should be given an opportunity to get on with his life without fear of harassment from neighbors.

However, this does not mean that you let your guard down and or invite this guy over for Sunday brunch.  The fact that you are aware of his presence in your neighborhood is great, 20 years ago that would not have happened and he could have easily blended into the community and could have worked into social networks that would give him access to more potential victims.

What you need to do is to make your sister aware of where this guy lives and discuss steps to take if she were to encounter him.  Talk about stranger danger and discuss some of the tricks people use to try and lure children.  Most do not simply grab someone off the street, many use lures such as: "Can you help me find my dog?"  or "Your mother asked me to come pick you up."  

Although you are statistically, much more likely to be victimized by a family member, stranger abductions do occur and by making your sister aware of the danger, reinforcing and practicing what she would do you will help make her experiences in public places much more safer and enjoyable for her.

Answer 9

freind i am as outraged as you are-if it were left to me i would have had the dirty old b**tard chemically castrated.

but i am afraid there's not a lot you can do in real terms (having him moved etc).

a word in the ears of the local "boys" might suffice though (winks).

but first your suspicions must have foundation-there is nothing worse than being falsely accused of such a thing.

so make sure you get your facts right first!!.

Answer 10

spread the word

make sure all schools know

keep kids away from him

ignore him

dont even speak to him

he will no doubt try to befriend people with kids or acess to them

keep a close eye on this fella

inform the ploice too so they know who is on their patch.

Answer 11

Do you know the facts of the case?

How can you be sure he was guilty? People are convicted wrongfully all the time.

You can say "Well he was tried and convicted!"

So what? O.J. was tried and aquited.

What sort of "s*x offender" is he?

You people are getting hysterical and you have no facts.

The fact of the matter is you can do nothing and you SHOULD do nothing.

Answer 12

How did you find out he is in your neighborhood?  If you found it out from the police or a website, then he is obviously out legally, and there is not much you can do TO him without getting yourself in trouble.  What you can do, is go to your state website and see what the conditions of his release are--what address he is registered under, and if any of those things aren't true you can report him to his parole officer and maybe get him put back in the slammer.  He probably has prohibitions against being around children, so you could also report this if you see him doing that--and get him thrown back in too.  Def keep your sis away from him and don't leave any windows unlocked, doors unlocked, don't let her play outside unaccompanied, etc.  That is just sad, but that is what I would do.

Answer 13

yep agree with u on this 1 ...

they deserve no mercy... i dont agree with this arr there sick business, they r worse than sick they r evil...let every1 know who and wot he is why should he lay silently looking at inocent youngsters ........... I would do my best to make him run..... (or worse) . i dont believe they should be protected!!!

Answer 14

I guess he should be, but normally these days they give people like that an ASBO and just leave them lol

crappy political system.

Answer 15

REPORT THEM!

If you dont it could be dangerous do it anonymously and noone will know it was you... what harm can you do... alot less the they can surely! Whatever you choose stay safe!

x*x

Answer 16

you can't really do anything if he is already a listed s*x offender and served his time, unless he commits another s*x offense.  Or s*x offenders are not allow to live near schools.

Answer 17

You could move. If you lived next to a church or a school, you would have additional protection form him. Otherwise, you can advise your sister to not have any conversations with him. Obviously he is listed on the Internet, or you wouldn't know about him.

Answer 18

How do you know he is? Most people tend to only get a hunch and have no hard info, unfortunately if you go round telling people and it's not true he can have you up for slander.

If you know he really is then warn and inform but do it subtly, keep an eye on his movements through a neighbourhood watch scheme or something and if you notice dodgy behaviour then inform the police to keep an eye on him and hopefully do something about it.
