Why Some Sex Offenders Never Get Out Of Prison

  • Much of what our society considers common knowledge about sex offenders is currently under debate - from the efficacy of the registry, to housing restrictions, to what treatment, if any, works. One of the most controversial practices is “dead time” - where sex offenders stay in prison for years beyond their sentence, simply because there is no where else for them to go. VICE News’s Alice Hines reports on how our society’s efforts to protect the public from violence ended up backfiring.

    Watch Next: Cryptocurrency was founded on the ideal of freeing money from the old systems of monetary control, with all the gender inequality inherent in them. Yet the burgeoning networks of Web3, including both crypto and NFT trading, seem at risk of repeating the same striking disparities. - th-cam.com/video/7f1EPQGYHJM/w-d-xo.html

      I don't know what is worse: the fact that the sheriff even said this, your support for his saying it, or the fact that you don't see what's wrong with it.
      All his statement has done is show a dishonest unwillingness to assess the situation at hand: that sex offenders had served their time, some unfairly so, and should be given the right to properly reintegrate back into society as productive citizens, so that they don't repeat their old criminal ways.
      Sweeping an issue under the rug doesn't nullify that the issue is still there
      If Lord forbid your own beloved male family member got placed on the registry, deserved or not, and he struggled his after-prison life away trying to maintain even a meager existence, I hope you have the nerve to tell him to "[not] be a sex offender, if [he doesn't] want to be on the sex offender list."

      His response is his opinion and he has the right to. However tax payers do not elect sheriffs to be the judge or jury. He doesn't get to decide if someone that committed a sex offense gets a slap on the wrist or not, the legal system decides that. I think police need really have that drilled into their head because, too often they believe they get to hand out a sentence.

      DNA isn't foolproof (though usually "good enough"), and eye-witnesses are _notoriously unreliable_ and that's just when third-parties witness something, let alone actual victims, especially victims of this, which usually make a point of looking away or closing their eyes; they don't normally look the attacker in the face and make eye-contact. Not to mention the race-blindness. Chances are he's guilty, but it's hardly a demonstrable fact.

    What the cop said "don't commit sex offences if you don't want to be on the register " is exactly how I feel about them too. If you've done the crime then it's too bad if people stigmatise you, because, you can be sure, your victims will have to live with your actions for life, so why are you wanting special treatment? They are not babies and are not usually mentally ill, they know what they are doing is wrong, so they should just grow up and accept the punishment. I am sure their victims don't want to hear about their housing problems and neither do the majority of the public. If you cannot do the time, don't do the crime! Of course, I am not speaking about people who were convicted for oral sex and digital penetration at age 15, but, as I write this I am thinking how old was the victim, as this is what will define this crime. I think there should be clear distinction between the types of crimes and I get the feeling that she's playing down his crime and the inconsistencies in the register. I really don't think you get on the register accidentally, I think you have to have been proved a danger. I really think she's trying to downplay the importance of these rules and, I wonder, if she would feel the same if she'd been a victim.

      I'm pretty sure there are different levels, or tiers, of the SOR, from low-risk to high-risk in terms of danger to the public.
      Unfortunately, being on that list at all is incredibly stigmatized, so yes, someone who's a Tier 1 (the least risk to the public, if I remember correctly) for urinating in a park at night or maybe for sexting with their teenage partner (if both are teens) is looked at with as much disdain and hatred as the Tier 4 (highest risk I think) who raped and killed someone.
      I'm not sure what the numbers are in terms of how many people account for which tier levels, but the fact that there's a wide range of offenses on that list can be problematic all around.

Also, consider that a lot of these safety measures are really "safety theater". We have a lot of supposed safety measures in society that do almost nothing besides giving the illusion of safety and politicians use them to get support. If a predator wants to do something bad he will not care about these restrictions and do it anyway.
      But if somebody wants to change his life after having been in prison for years and years basically he cannot given he cannot find a job, a place where to live, and so on. This actually could make society much less safe. There are several studies showing that rehabilitation helps much more than punishment and crazy restrictions like these.

Sorry but that's obviously a consequence from your actions you have to live with, what did you expect.

      My biological father has been trying to reconnect with our family over the years. He raped and molested me for years as a kid, and although I'm in my 30s and have been living my life (also thanks to lots and lots of therapy) I don't care if adult family members chat with him or reconnect, but if I went somewhere and he was there then I'd leave and only cause an issue if there were any of my nieces or nephews there. But from what I've heard from my siblings, he's been trying to reconnect with them for almost 20 years and the only thing I had to say to my sister was that she better not ever leave him around her kids and if she ever does choose to introduce them then someone needs to be watching every single interaction like their life depends on it because in my opinion no one's guard should ever be down around him, especially when there's kids around.
      He's been complaining about how he's not able to ever see or get to know his grandkids, he's been isolated from his family...etc. If someone wants to have contact with him then that's on them and they're living their life their way. I'd still likely have contact with that family member but I'm not going to have contact with him.

    We need more willingness among parents and teachers to discuss sexual violence with students, not only seeing them as potential victims, but as potential offenders. We need to spell out for them the LONG term consequences of commiting an offense, as well as the LONG term harm to the victims.
    I feel we need to make it safe and confidential for them to seek help before they offend as adults.

      Exactly! At one point the sheriff guy said something about how prevention is most important to him, but what's he doing about it?
      The only care or treatment for sex offenders tends to be *after* they've already offended. Something needs to change so that people can come forward to seek help *before* offending without being turned away or locked up or something.
      Of course not all of them see a problem with their behavior, but that's another reason for more accessible therapy, especially for children and young adults.

      A LOT of people can't get a job or a stable living situation right now, these individuals aren't special in that regard. And there's no moral law that says people who commit egregious crimes against their fellow man, particularly crimes that weren't driven by poverty and necessity (such as sex crimes) are somehow entitled to an easy route to making a life for themselves after prison. Things are hard for EVERYONE right now. Things are probably hard for their victims as well. Truth be told, many of the things these offenders are whining about, victims of SA go through routinely throughout their lives due to extreme trauma and the mental disabilities it causes. Go into any homeless shelter, and you'll likely meet people, especially women, who've been victims of SA in childhood as well as throughout multiple periods in their adult lives and it's greatly affected their ability to hold down a job and keep stable housing. Then throw drug addiction into the mix, and things get even more difficult. These people also struggle with getting the services they need to have a stable life for themselves, and they're often thrown in jail for non violent crimes which only makes their ability to reintegrate into society even harder. These are the people I, and most of American society should care about as far as this broken system is concerned. The people who were dealt a horrible hand in life and were abused beyond mention, but have never hurt anyone other than themselves as a result. People who deliberately harm others through nothing other than their defective sexual deviancy really shouldn't be high up on anyone's list of priorities regarding their lack of ability to make a life for themselves.

And I'm even on the open-minded side of having sympathy for what perpetrators probably went through in their own childhoods. etc. Maybe I can see that more services could be put in place to help find housing immediately after prison, or to help with the transition from prison to out-of-prison (like bus tickets to rural areas or something). Buuuut other than that, this doc did the opposite of convincing me the registry is wrong.

      Right? Like, there is stigma against victims of these crimes, and THAT'S uncalled for, but a perpetrator and predator SHOULD feel some shame for how they affected another human forever. Earned stigma should really just be called "people being wary of those who have PROVEN themselves dangerous."

    Criminal justice & sociology major here :
    Listen to the victim. This is a call for restorative Justice or in her case rehabilitative measures .
    However, the offender needs to consciously take responsibility for what he did for any of these to work. Also, the victim must be willing.
    I feel horrible for the victim and that the interviewer so bluntly told her that he denied responsibility for his crime.
    Human beings deserve constitutional rights. Rights voided for one group means rights voided for all (eventually).
    (Just my two cents)

      I think there should be varying levels of punishment for different sexual offenses. Anything regarding children should be life in prison but there are men who are 20 or 21 on the list who messed up with their 17 year old girlfriend and now have their entire life ruined. I 100% understand what you mean but the registry has a lot of different offenses which definitely all don’t have equal severity

Are the laws flawed in some ways? Yes I’m sure they are. Are people falsely accused? I’m sure that happens. As far as every other offender who has been accused with irrefutable evidence; like that officer said, if you don’t want to be on the registry than don’t commit a sex offense.

    A guy that I went to high school with was placed on the registry because he was dating a 17 year old when he was 23. People like this should not be placed on the same list as someone who sexually abuses ten year olds. People aren't going to ask him why he is on the registry, they just see him in the registry and assume that he is a child molester. A once promising life of a funny, popular, and outgoing person destroyed because the parents of his girlfriend didn't agree with him dating their daughter. This incident has bothered me for so many years.
