Why waste a good 168gr. BTHP? Ball ammo would be fine.A 168gr BTHP would take care of the situation once and for all, not that I would condone such an action. I'm just saying....

There is no such thing as a "rehabilitated" child molester. Adults who have impulses to have sex with children under the age of 14 (the legal definition of child molesting in Indiana) are not going to be reintegrated into society after any amount of prison time. Sex is a base instinct, like hunger or thirst. If it's screwed up in your head, causing you to only want sex with children, then that's what you want.....period.
I understand what you're saying and tend to agree with you... to a point. If there is a convicted child molester living on the block, there is no way I'm going to allow my children to play in his yard. If there is a convicted serial rapist living next door, I'm not going to become buddies with him. If there is a drug dealer living down the street, I'm not going to allow my kids near him. I'm just not. Period. Tell my kids that's unfair of me if you wish. But when it comes down to it, the good Lord gave me the honor and privilege of being the mother of two beautiful little girls and with that comes the responsibility of protecting them at all costs. And I will do everything in my power to do just that... no matter how wrong it may appear.

Sexual misconduct with a minor
Sec. 9. (a) A person at least eighteen (18) years of age who, with a child at least fourteen (14) years of age but less than sixteen (16) years of age, performs or submits to sexual intercourse or deviate sexual conduct commits sexual misconduct with a minor, a Class C felony. However, the offense is:
(1) a Class B felony if it is committed by a person at least twenty-one (21) years of age; and
(2) a Class A felony if it is committed by using or threatening the use of deadly force, if it is committed while armed with a deadly weapon, if it results in serious bodily injury, or if the commission of the offense is facilitated by furnishing the victim, without the victim's knowledge, with a drug (as defined in IC 16-42-19-2(1)) or a controlled substance (as defined in IC 35-48-1-9) or knowing that the victim was furnished with the drug or controlled substance without the victim's knowledge.
(b) A person at least eighteen (18) years of age who, with a child at least fourteen (14) years of age but less than sixteen (16) years of age, performs or submits to any fondling or touching, of either the child or the older person, with intent to arouse or to satisfy the sexual desires of either the child or the older person, commits sexual misconduct with a minor, a Class D felony.

If he's just doing the "life" thing- going to work, mowing his yard, etc., you might even say "hi" once in a while. He's an acquaintence. He's NOT a friend by any stretch of the imagination. You're not inviting him over for supper, meeting him for a picnic, or trusting him in any way, shape, or form.
good for you. people like that should be shot on site!!!!!
...we need more people with the back bone to get involved. not to snoop but to keep an eye out for each other...
So the guy in question was released seven years ago after serving 23 years in prison for rape and criminal deviate conduct.
Seven years clean is probably a pretty good indicator that he's not going to re-offend.
Funny thing, I clicked on a few other pictures including a guy who lives on the other side of Hague from me in Fishers - his sentence for child molestation?? 4 years probation.
I looked at some of them in my area as well. Child molesters that only got a year or two... then some people worry about hurting their fricking feelings. From what I can see they get off way too easy.
I am not in the least bit interested in their feelings. I'm interested in what gives a person the best chance possible to return to being a productive, functioning member of society rather than a repeat violator. From my perspective, a lot of people seem to want these people to re-offend, simply so they can be re-incarcerated. I think that's a little twisted, but if that's what it takes to make you feel safer, I suppose I can understand the logic.
Who said they wanted them to re-offend?
