I do not even know where, or how, to begin. I am a 44 yr. old husband and father of two wonderful sons. One of which is struggling with Autism. In 2011, I was accused of inappropriately touching  two young ladies who were babysitting for us. One was 15 and the other 16. My wife and one son were here. Nothing happened. Anyway, I was charged with 2 counts of felony 1st degree sexual abuse. Throughout the entire investigation I had the support of everyone. My wife, family, friends and even the grandparents of one of the accusers. I retained a very reputable attorney. After no one showed for the first two pre-liminary hearings the state was still going to indict me. My attorney called me the day before and stated that the prosecutor offered a plea agreement. They offered to combine the two charges into one. One charge a misdemeanor simple battery and the other a misdemeanor 3rd degree…

I don’t really know how to go about doing this or if it will even do any good, but I’m at my wits and and I know that there are others in similar situations. I’m 44 and on the sex offender registry in SC. I entered chat rooms when I was 36 and said and did things that I’m ashamed to admit to. I can say with confidence that I believe I did this out of a chronic state of loneliness. I watched all of the kids that I grew up with go into adulthood and start families. It never happened for me. I was very skinny growing up and developed an inferiority complex, therefore I was not so good with women and dating. For 35 years, I didn’t spend one Christmas, Thanksgiving, or New Years with a date. I wanted it, but it never happened. Imagine what it would be like to want a special relationship with someone for…

I met a very sweet loving woman in Manila Philippines in 2008 and revisited her 7 times and was married in 2010 with dreams of being together forever here in the USA. Now the USCIS will not allow me to bring my wife to the United States because I’m on the registry in Alabama. Also now after 7 wonderful trips spending every minute together, we now have to inform Interpol anytime we travel outside the USA. Interpol notified the Philippine government of my last trip there and I was refused entry to the country, now on the BLACKLIST there. We are married for life under Philippine law and I love her with every ounce of life I have. I do everything I can to make life as normal as possible for her and she still has hopes and dreams, but it seems now we can never see each other again. They will not even give her a visa to visit here because…

Ethan was the most gregarious, full of life child and young man, with the most beautiful smile and sky blue eyes. He was thoughtful, loving, insightful and had a heart of gold. He had ADHD and probably bipolar disorder. At 14 he was molested by an adult. At 10 he lost his mother to meth addiction. He was in and out of psychiatric centers, but didn’t lose his zest for life and hope for a good life and future. He made the foolish choice at 19 years old to engage in a sexual act with a 15 year old girl that had been pursuing him for months. He immediately felt bad and went to her mother and confessed and apologized. She brought charges and he went to prison, labeled a sex offender, for sexual indecency with a child, and served almost four years. He was released on parole in June of 2012, and struggled to find his place in life…

5/9/2013 This just reported on local news Rep. Scott Burns is pushing for a bill to bus children if a predator lives in the school district BUT then it went on to say that if sex offenders lived in the area it didn’t matter whether it was a public or private school. This is all aimed at keep our children safe. I believe he is aiming it at Cambria and Somerset counties, but it might be state wide.

As a wife of a sex offender ,I live day to day ,going on four years now ,wondering ,crying,praying ,and doing all i can to make a voice in the wilderness ,crying out .”Wheres the help ?” Wheres the 700,000,000 families of sex offenders voices to cry with me about how unconstitutional these laws are to not only the family member who is labeled a sex offender ,but also their families ?” They need to all cry loud to these government officials , swarm their mailboxes with letters of how the families are being affected by all these SOR rules ,restrictions. “Do you have children ?”if you did you would do it for them as much as your loved one. Think about the many children who are being punished for a bad mistake their father ,or mother made back then .They cant have their parents to be there when a play is going on at school .or a sports game…

All of these sex offender laws do absolutely nothing to protect the public. Most sex offenders are children themselves, tried as adults, but children less than 18 years old. there have been no statistics to prove all these terrible sex offender registration laws help anyone. sex offenders usually offend children they know. It is the very rare, but very well publicized sex offender that actually does physical violence to a child, and rarer still, a convicted sex offender to re-offend. These sex offender registration laws just make it more difficult for a sex offender to find housing, jobs, families and such. And it makes them a target for vigilantes. I am well informed about this, because i am a child sex offender. I molested a boy, when i was 16. I was tried as an adult and served a severe prison sentence of 8 years. Now I am older, I am also a single father now, and even to be…

I am a 39 yrs old male, happily married with a 16 months old daughter.  I have been on the SO registry for over 13 yrs.  In 1992, at the age of 18, I was convicted of sexual assault on a 17 yrs old girl and was given 5 years’ prison time which I successfully completed in April of 1997.  Since being on the registry  I was denied employment and my mail box was vandalized; I face  stigma and shame when I go to renew my driver license annually, and the license fee, I have to pay annually. I make in person reports to the local sheriff on certain days of the year annually and have  uncertain requirements of registration and the fear of arrests if I took my family on interstate travel for vacation. I fear being arrested if I take my daughter to any prohibited parks or prohibited areas, for I am aware of the never ending  added restrictions on parks, movie theaters, bowling area, beaches…etc in…

Our lives changed nine years ago when my husband, in his mid-20s at the time, was arrested in an internet sting operation involving an undercover officer going into an adult sex chat room and posing as a sexually-experienced 15 year old seeking out sex with older men. I was 7 months pregnant with our first child at the time, and my husband was told he could be facing 20 years in prison. When they offered him a plea that carried 5 years probation, he jumped at it. At the time, he was told that, once his probation was over, he could apply to have his record expunged. About a year after his arrest, after the Jessica Lunsford case made the news and stories were abounding about all registrants being compulsive child molesters who might murder your child, we were forced to leave the apartment we were living in after management told us that threats were made against us and they…

Hi!!!! My name is David, and I was given a Deferred with Probation, no jail time at all, for attempted sex assault of a child (my daughter) in 2000 from back in 1988.I don’t think I have to go into what my life has been since.  I have gone from a Tier One to a Tier Three as lawmakers try to get reelected. They make  feel good laws so you as a society can feel safe but are doing nothing but destroying  thousands of family.  And as the cities and states make laws that take our jobs away, and we are made to live under bridges and in the woods. Are we the New LEPERS IN HISTORY ? and all the lawmakers can say about that is, O, WELL. We have done are JOBS. You feel better right ? As you feel better the Homeland Security has taken my HAZMAT license from me, and I quote, “Based upon TSA, They have Determined that you Pose a Security…
