I am 35 year old sex offender. I was charged for chatting online to a “minor” on yahoo but the profile was an adult profile, which later the person claimed to be 15 years old – bait and switch (state police sting). I was sentenced to 4 months jail and 2 years probation, all of which I have completed. I was never tested for drugs or alcohol which I had in my system when arrested. I went through hell to make a good life and recover. I have a very successful job and wonderful friends and family that knows the truth why I socially committed suicide. I hate that I allowed myself to become this far gone I knew I was killing myself. I would love to share my story with someone in person. I do feel I DO NOT belong on the registry. I was snow balled and forced to take a plea but that’s another story.
You: “What I did wasn’t even wrong and I was tricked and the people who protect children from people like me are the real villains here!”
Also you: “I hate that I allowed myself to become this far gone”
You know what words a decent person would say, but not why they might say them, so you can’t make it sound coherent. Your mask is slipping.
Did you meet Chris Hansen?
