Mother Sentenced for Attacking Sex Offender

Its the Bleeding Heat Liberals that let laws get passed that do not let scum like this giant of a sexual deviant be allowed out of jail with his reproductive organs still atached to his body

LS: Thank you so much for the one shining comment amid the masses. I had begun to think that we were all in a great lot of trouble if these reactions are indicative of rationale. I completely agree with your assessment of the situation and your comments mirrored my own. One of my first questions when I read this story was how and when did this mother know exactly what happened during that incident? I am sure her daughter must have related it to her, (however abbreviated) and where I can see just the thought of him talking to her would infuriate any mother, she had time before approaching this man at HIS RESIDENCE to gather her information and process her actions. Would it not have been just as effective for her to approach him and tell him that she was going immediately to the police and report to his parole officer that he had violated his parole and she would press charges to make sure that he went right back to jail. Then maybe he would be the one spending the time behind bars and not her. That brings up my second point. How ludicrous is it that you have a crime, the nature of which of itself, makes it impossible to return that felon out into the world, and then give him a "slap on the hand, and a light sentence" and turn him loose again. There are no neighborhoods that I know of that do not have children in them (unless you want to add senior housing, and that is not a "neighborhood" just a residential location. So, in lieu of finding an island and creating a "felon residence colony" what is so hard about making the sentence fit the crime? LIFE without parole. That would cut down on having so many repeat offenders clogging up our prison systems.

As for the mother in this instance, my heart is with her and I truly feel the anger she must have felt, being a mother myself, I echo her feelings, but not her actions. First of all her actions did her no good. She is behind bars and he is still loose (as far as we all know). Now she has to worry about what might happen in her absense. I will hold out hope that maybe some good will come out of all of this and maybe some laws will get changed. Good luck with that.

You a Lawyer? That's the problem with our country, too many lawyers. Too many taxes, also. lmao as if we have any say

No, I'm not a lawyer. I'm a mom. And a citizen who actually READS the Constitution. And who also understands right and wrong.

Yes, what the guy did was wrong, that's why he went to jail. No, I do not agree that he should have been released if, indeed, he was a Level III Offender (the definition of which can be found with a quick Google Search).

However...

I also understand that what this woman did was WRONG. You do NOT hunt people down in their own homes and beat them with a baseball bat because he may or may not have spoken to your child. Last I checked, Freedom of Speech was still a right granted by the Constitution. The man NEVER touched the girl. NEVER. The woman was wrong. She is in jail. That is the law. Deal with it.

i don't think she lied about anything. the child also said he offered her fireworks, which seems to indicate that he was trying to entice her for something. i love kids but i would never just offer them things. as a mother, i would say that her instincts took over and she did what she had to do to protect her children. ideally, she should have taken her daughter away and called the police or something, but in the heat of the moment it is difficult to think clearly. especially where our children are concerned. on top of that, he was a sex offender who has been found guilty.

granted most sex offenders have gone thru something in their past that makes them so twisted. i feel for them as i cannot believe they can be happy being what they are. however, as a mother i can also say if i ever found a convicted sex offender around my daughter i cannot say what i would do. i am a christian who believes in turning the other cheek, but then i am also human. and i can totally identify with the woman saying she would do it all over again.

perhaps the authorities could have come up with a better solution than jailing the mother. maybe they can try to rehabilitate the sex offender and give the mother a warning or something, because i cannot believe that honestly trying to protect your children from 1 of the worst things that can happen to them is a crime. assault is a crime, i agree, but protecting one's child isn't a crime is it? and that was her main motive.

If you are seriously the mother of two molested children and you actually feel the need to take up for this guy by writing in his defense on here than I think you may have some issues. Most of us support this woman without having had our kids molested.

Jessica I was in no way taking up for the man. What he did was wrong, however, it is against the law to go to someone's residence and beat them with a baseball bat. She was in the wrong too. And now her children are left without their mother around for a few months because of that choice. That isn't fair to the kids. Before I found out that my girls were molested I always said that I would cut off the 'thing' of any man who touched them and take pleasure in killing them (as most moms do say). But when it actually happens you realize that you cant take yourself out of your children's lives in order to retaliate (which is a felony offense). How would that solve anything? Sure, you would get the temporary pleasure of torturing the person, but that does nothing for keeping you with your family. Or for helping your child to heal from what has been done to them. You need to be there for them as a shoulder to cry on, listening ear, and loving embrace. So you let the law do the punishing. You can put me down for what I wrote, however, I am just stating what is REAL. Think about it...

I agree- she should have called the police. He deserves to be beaten, but really, taking the law into your own hands is never a good idea.

yeah right , see how many people willl agree with you

It would appear several people willllllllllll agree with me. Or, "with meeeeeeeeeeee..."

Learn to spell before making ignorant remarks.
