No I understand that…but the 70’s and 80’s were a different time for these crimes and many pleaded down. At the end of the day most are probably no issue what so ever, but I am sure there are more than a few phillip garrido’s out there.

BTW did I mention the pictures.

jstoesz, I think Gardner was discussed on an earlier thread this year. Gardner was classified as a “sexually violent predator,” within the meaning of Welfare and Institutions Code section 6600 et. seq. Most of these individuals cannot be rehabilitated and so are institutionalized for life or released under VERY strict supervision.
What CAR was dealing with here are garden-variety sex registrants who are required to register for life annually and/or every time they move.
The two should not be compared with one another.[/quote]
Actually, only one of the three had an offense that might have been more “innocent” than it looked. The other two were very obviously NOT “dating a younger girl” or “consensual” in any way. That’s what made it an easy decision for me. Also, they were all literally a quick walk from the house, and the chances of them seeing our kids were very great, just because they were that close.
I tend to take a pretty severe stance when it comes to any kind of violent criminal who preys on children or innocent victims, and I do not believe in rehabilitation for most of them. While saying that, I absolutely respect that other people feel differently; it’s just a difference of opinion.

November 9, 2010 at 3:14 PM #628447sdrealtorParticipantTo add to BG’s point. I know someone who is registered as a sex offender. He’s in his mid 40’s and slept with his underage girlfriend when he was 17. The dad made her file charges. That was over 25 years ago and he has never had a mark against him other than traffic violations. He has to register for life now.
