Recidivism - A Fancy Word For "Lifetime Predator"
The Centredaily.com reports that in Florida, some of the most violent sexual predators are being released from treatment facilities without having had even one hour of actual therapy.
Apparently, all of the funding promised by politicians seeking to look "tough on crime" has never appeared, and now hundreds of the most dangerous pedophiles and rapists are being re-released into society.
But an even more chilling truth is this: even sexual predators who receive such treatment, or alternately serve jail time, aren't likely to quit preying on women and children. According to the Bureau of Justice, sex offenders are four times more likely to be arrested again, for the same crime, than any other criminal.
The rates for recidivism -- meaning the likelihood that this criminal will do this again -- are 70%! That's right, sexual predators have a 70% chance of getting out of jail or treatment and attacking another innocent victim.
And their new favorite method of finding those victims? The internet. It's anonymous, it's global, and it's available to your children.
Recidivism: It's just one more reason why every parent should invest in parental controls.
