Cue Twilight Zone spooky music (Sex Offender Link)

Firstly, I completely believe that most offenses are perpetrated by someone related or known to the children. However, it's nice to know who's living in the neighborhood. I had to turn off my pop up blocker to make it work.

When you visit this site you can enter your address and a map will pop up with your house as the small icon of a house and red, blue, green, dots surrounding your entire neighborhood. When you click on these dots a picture of a person will appear with an address and the description of the crime he or she had committed.

This site was developed by John Walsh from Americas Most Wanted.

Interesting - of the two found in my neighborhood, one was a woman.

Thank you madam- target identification is always a good thing.

That's a pretty neat mapping program. For work, I check the state registry monthly, this one's right in line with it. For the state's registry, I have to click on a disclaimer stating you will not do any harm to the offender, before it will allow you in.
FYI: Iowa made it an offence if a sex offender moves in with parent that has children in the home. It is the law that any manditory reporter (teacher, doctor, etc,,) turn them in. At our district, 2 where turned in so far,this year. Single moms with a shack-up stud, who happens to be a sex offender, the moms get charged with child endangerment!

I think I would likely find my place in the middle of a dot forest... I'll pass...

GOOD! There's a guy down the road with three kids. His ex had custody until her bf went after the oldest girl. She was probably seven at most when I moved here and her dad had them with him already.

The wh*** wouldn't give up the guy for her own kids?

Good idea to post this madame........Everybody ought to know about these creeps.
I was surprised to see how many were in close proximity to the area schools.
I need to run to the store and get more ammo.

Thanks again,

Good Idea Bender and Great Link Madam...

With a beautiful, soon-to-be 6 year old daughter, I was relieved to find no offenders in my immediate vicinity--the closest was about a mile away. The "dots" weren't in the exact place but the addresses were posted which helps.

The pictures of most of these men (I didn't find any women) all looked hauntingly similar--one freak was even smiling! That is probably why when you meet someone and you think "why don't I like this guy"--an intuition thing.

If anything ever happened to anyone in my family by one of these people there would certainly be a pre-meditated "crime of passion" committed on my part...no waiting for the court system here!
