It brings questions like how do you clear your name if you’re once a sex offender? Why do we release those people back to the wild if we do not believe that they can change?
In the UK the sex offenders register is used to prevent such people working with particularly vulnerable groups. Otherwise, they are ‘back in the wild’ once they have done their sentence
It has some unintended and bizarre implications.
Take the scenario of some guy who goes out dancing, having a great time with their preferred sexual partner on the dance floor. On the way home stops in the park for a wank because they’re single, young, drunk, horny and stupid.
They get caught, they’re on the sex offenders register and they’re banned from working with children or vulnerable people. And yet they’re not more of a threat than the average person, certainly not a paedophile.
(If that looks suspiciously specific, it’s not my story 😁)
Who can’t make it home before having a wank? That seems like a whole different physiological issue.
It was a hypothetical example for purposes of illustration, not a suggestion for the weekend
Doesn’t even need to be a wank. Just having a pee out in the open at a park is enough to get you on that registry.
It sounds like it’s more persistent than blockchain
And what is a sex offender? I know someone that got a sex offender charge for peeing in a bush…
I mean, they could still work at non-childcare jobs, or at least can here in Canada.
In general it’s a good point, though. Westerners in particular seem to want their cake and to eat it too. Execution and indefinite incarceration are both inhumane, but they also don’t want a guy who’s openly a rapist anywhere near them in any context. Locally, reformable people are most of the prison population, but I do wonder what I’d do in the shoes of somewhere like El Salvador.

The vast majority of them don’t change, no matter how much they say they will.
And you know that how?
