When does the madness stop? The registry, constant one-upmanship from states on residency laws. And WE HAVE served our time. When are the legal groups finally going to stand up and DO SOMETHING? You know that as individuals, Sex Offenders have no money to fight this alone. Our children are threatened , our wives or husbands live in shame and fear. Our property is damaged, we are under constant fear of being harmed ourselves. When does this peonage stop. The 13th Amendment ended slavery in American in ALL FORMS, and yet, in the 21st century slavery is alive and well in America under the guise of public safety.

They have a been a lot of inoncent men and women prosecuted. They will take a plea to keep from spending the rest of there life in jail. Very few case are won for sex offnders. It has made it easer to accuse a person. They are being tried on hearsay and not evidence. The reason I write this is. There was a case in Kentucky where this teenage Gril was upset with her grandfather who was a preacher. She accused him of sexual abuse. He went to trial was found juilty. He spent 15 months in prison. The granddaughter went to the police station and told them that he did not sexual abuse her she lied.He was released He will never let her come to his home again. How does this happen to innoncent men or women. There is break down in the system when one person that is not guilty is sent to prison on lies and hearsay statements. This man has to live with this the rest of his life. Where is the justice in this case.
