After watching the programme tonight about Sarah's Law (sarah payne) do you think we should have the right to know about paedophiles in the area?
 
yes deffinatly
someone i know works as a social worker or summit like that and works wit a peadophile (spl) who lives near me i couldnt believe made me very over protective of Brayds
and the other day in the paper there was these two knowen peadophiles (spl) sitting in a park taking pics of children
that cant be right???
 
I dont know where they should go but they shouldnt be allowed out or near children. I dont know if I would want to know if there was one nearby, i would worry myself sick.
 
Yeah definately i live 10 miles away from the bloke who pinched that child after christmas and raped her she was only 3 :( his name was Sweeney it's been in all the papers at the mo, he was supposed to have been under supervision, the only reason they got the kid back is because he crashed his car in Swindon which is about hour and half away
 
i lived in my prvious house for 3 years!!!!! and it wasn't until a few months before i moved i lived 2 doors away from peodofiles!!!!!!! ) i think its a disgrace!!!!!! and i was told that they were done again!!!!!!!!! they should be in prison for life as they have messed up the other poor person for life!!!!!! the law today is discusting!!!!!
 
we lived near a primary school and a peodo lived next door to the school!!!

He was attacked and targetted so he was given panic alarms so if anyone tried to get him the police would be straight out!! :talkhand: :shakehead:

I couldn't believe it when i heard! he gets more protection than the parents with children in the same area.

They should all be put in a camp or something!
 
yeah. the only people that think no are peado's!!! there isnt really a down side to knowing.
 
Theres one living down my street. I wish I didn't know but I'm glad I do if that makes sense. They are all over whether we know about them or not. They should be locked up and the key thrown away. Why they let them out is beyond me :evil:
 
I thought no and im not a pedo Jenna, the only reason why i put no is like Lauramum01 said i would worry myself sick. I understand why people would want to know though and if it weren't for me being a worry wart i would want to know. I think parents should have the right to know but it would increase the crime levels by alot!!
 
i just showed this post to mum and she sed how disgusting it is that people with children aint being told wen ther ekids are in danger and i agree as our children even baies are in danger bt i know wot the gils mean knowing there is some by me is so worrying and makes me feel sick
 
I defo think we should know.

That man that was on the front of the Nwes Of The World last week filming the children used to buy me and my friends drinks in our local when we were 15/16 :shock: He lived in a hostel nearby. Obviously i know why now!

I even sold him my super nintendo and loads of games. Wonder why he wanted that eh?!!!! :evil: :puke:
 
I cant vote as i am in between. in a perfect world yes and as a mother i say yes. but as it is there have been many cases of mistaken identity, people withthe same name being attacked etc. can you imagine everyone talking about you cos they thought you were a paedo or worse attacking you or your family?

i also heard on the radio the other day when they were discussing this that someone even graffitied PAEDO on the house of a paediatrician! the information in the wrong hands could be a nightmare.

what they dhould def do is revise sentecning, esp parole etc. if Roy Whiting had served his FULL sentence then he would have still been in prison when he murdered little Sarah. that just makes me sick. also they need to be sure these people are not near schools etc. sadly i dont think they can ever be rehabilitated - its not like they are theives or armed robbers is it?

hmm, I think no and I can definately state I'm not a paedophile thank you, bit of a sweeping statement there! I personally do not think this would work. You just have to look at the fiasco after the News of the World printed the names and addresses of registered child sex offenders to see what is going to happen.

Also how is knowing that Mr Jones at number 23 is a convicted paedophile going to help? Ok you can tell your child not to go out near that house and not to talk to Mr Jones but what about Mr Smith at number 41 who is also a sex offender but has not been caught yet?? Surely it would be better to teach your children stranger danger to all strangers rather then the ones we know. It is also worth remembering that the vast majority of sex crimes against children are carried out by people known to them, either family or friends of the family. Another thing, where do we draw the line, are we talking about all sex offenders, those who are sadistic, those who download child porn, those who have had sex with a 14 year old when they themselves were 17? The money needed for that would be a massive amount.

Third point, if sex offenders know that they are going to be made public and potentially harmed then they will "disappear". This means that the Police, the Probation and other agencies are not able to monitor them and as a result the risk of harm and the risk of re-offending rises dramatically. I personally would prefer it if instead of spending money on Sarah's Law instead the government made available more resources to the Police and to the Probation Service so that paedophiles are able to be monitored more effectively, and also they should be given much tougher sentences to allow the Probation a chance to work with them, and if they do not show signs of changing or accepting responsibility then they don't get released.

Everyone said to me that I would change my mind when I had a baby but I can honestly say hand on heart I don't want to know. Instead Seren will be told not to talk to starngers, that if a secret makes her feel scared or sad then she must tell someone, etc.
 
This is a debate close to my heart. All I can say is some offenders are not punished therefore you'll never truly know whether there is one (can't even bear to say the word) living close by. Even if they did allow you to find out there is still a chance your next door neighbour has been accused but not prosecuted due to insufficient evidence.....

Vigilence (sp) is the key.
 
Hell yes they should tell people if theres a pedo in your area. When zacks old enough to play out, I want to know if theres a pervert near by, coz if there is theres noway hes playing outside

ok whilst I see your point, what if there are no registered sex offenders near you (you find that out through Sarah's Law), hopw do you know that there are no unconvicted sex offenders. Research shows that on average 300 offences are committed before a sex offender is convicted.
 
there is only one solution...

every pedo should be kept in prison untill they die!

life should mean life

none of this early relase because they have behaved well in prison??

i mean come on its ovious they will be on good behavior there are no kiddies in prison

my children will never ever even stay at a friends house, i only made this choice the other day after having a long chat with my best friends mum about peados, she is a social worker. i was telling her how the fear of child abusers is making me paranoid and taking over, she said there are just ways to prevent it from happening. you can not trust every one, even women!
 
Hi

I am assuming there is danger out on the street and Isaac won't be playing outside like I did when I was little. When I was about 6 we had a peeping tom who used to sit in our back garden and look up at me and my sisters bedroom window. My dad and uncle chased him a few times but he always got away. Still makes me shudder to think about it now. Obviously at the time I was oblivious. If there was a peadophile living anywhere near me and my baby I would have to do something about it. Either move away or something? What can you do?

Lou
