    I mean this half in jest:


    Level 3 offenders, those that are repeat offenders and those who have violated pre- pubertal kids should wear collars and around schools should be an "invisible fence." When these criminals come within a certain distance of a school they will get a friendly electrical reminder of where they are not suppose to be.

    Less, actually. You can't change the ballistic "print" of a gun without a LOT of hassle. You can change your appearance easily. It's actually easier to hide a PERSON than it is to hide a gun.

    High voltage.

    And the "collar" should be worn around other parts of their anatomies.

    Fried eggs for breakfast, anyone?

    It's not being done that way. You can make those distinctions. Why can't your congressperson???

    I agree Exy.

    In this case Garrido never should have been released. That's the main problem here.

    He was supposed to rot in jail, instead, he was released after only 11 years of a 50 year sentence and look what happened?

    Had they kept him locked up we wouldn't even be having this conversation. That poor girl would have been safe at home with her family, not having to deal with the hell her life has been for the past 18 years and the hell that's still to come.

    We have to stop giving these guys a second chance.

    Level three sex offenders should be lifers in prison.

    On a serious note here, I remember a month or two ago, a young girl wrote in saying she was being molested by her brother and was afraid to tell her parents because she thought he would kill her. I can't remember what section her message was in but does anyone have any updates on what happened to her? I hope she told someone and is safe.

    Yikes. I missed that one.

    I hope that the moderators kept records and forwarded them appropriately to the proper law enforcement agencies.
