This is great, we need to do more with education and rehabilitation. Turning sex offenders into modern day lepers, forcing them to live under bridges, like in Florida and across the country:

Doesn’t solve nothing. Forcing people into these kinds of situations, only increases the risk someone will be harmed, or an offender will commit another crime.
I hope you spread the truth and not the disinformation the media and politicians continue to spread, making the moral panic and mass hysteria bigger, while doing nothing to prevent crime.
