   This article is a perfect example of unprofessional journalism. The facts are completely wrong. This man did not commit any crime in 1999. This was charged on him in 1989 and was the outcome of a mistake of urinating in the public. Could happen to anybody. The judge has let him out on his on accord and the anonymous tipster was somebody who wanted to hurt the family. Everyone will believe what the want to and should be concerned about their childrens safety. This just shows that not all people convicted of things deserve it. I probably shouldn’t stir the kettle anymore then it’s already been stirred but I had to voice my opinion. He is a good family man, a great grandpa to my children, they love him very much and will always be his grandbabys. They just had a good day playing with papaw and mamaw outside before the storms today.If anyone has a problem with that you might as well learn how to deal with it. He

   I think all states including liberal Florida should have a law that requires convicted sex offenders who are still required to be registered in their home state, to seek permission from the state they are moving to or get permission from the state they are leaving before they relocate. In other words they should have to ask before they move so that the receiving state will know they are coming. This would help a lot of people who are worried about perverts living near them, and I can’t blame anyone who has children or single women living alone wanting to know who is living near them. But I’m sure the ACLU will file a law suit on his behalf and the supreme court will eventually overturn the conviction if their is one saying his rights were violated and he is wrongfully being persecuted for something he did 11 years ago. But what about the people he attempted to molest and the sickening thoughts these children will carry with them the rest of their lives? Oh yeah I forgot, they will be told to get therapy at their own expense. Give me a break and wake up America!!

   While this man may be remorseful and never again commit an act of this nature, I can’t help but worry that he is in close proximity to my children and may indeed act again. You can’t erase that from a child’s mind, and even worse, what if the crime gets worse than the first? My question is why such a light sentence for not registering?? It seems to me that the law is so easy on not registering that they don’t even bother. If it were a more severe punishment these folks would be more inclined to comply with the registry rule. Our laws should insist on a more harsh punishment to ensure the safety of our children.
