Halloween and Sex Offenders

[Bossanova]

I'm in the Illinois area, just for reference.

--

Halloween is a high risk time for sex offenders to repeat crimes. And that's why police in Illinois and Iowa take extra precautions. But, Iowa and Illinois do not have laws restricting all sex offenders from Trick R Treating.

Well, besides from a few points I'm going to quote, this is my take;

In a way, it sounds like they just wanna lock the offenders in their home all night. While I do think that's the best method, I also think that if these offenders are at such high risk to move them in an apartment..or just take them to a secluded area away from society.

There's still a lot of research being done about what causes offenders to target children.

It's not that hard to figure out. Sex Offenders hurt children because children can't fight back, and because they're more easy to manipulate. Nor do they (he kids) fully understand it's wrong.

Others can be because they were abused themselves.

This I could understand. They say if you're abused as a kid, you're more of a risk to do it yourself.

authorities say there's just no way to patrol the more than 600 registered offenders living in the QCA.

Than get them the hell out of the QCA? ""

Yes, basically it's enstilled into ones mind that this is normal and acceptable behaivior when they are young and they tend to persue it when older only to find out it is not when cought.
