When my sons were 13 and 9 a new neighbor moved in, a couple guys. I ran the address and yes, one was a sex offender. I printed the info and gave it to others in our little cul-de-sac soon there was one on every door. The guys in that house painted it, landscaped it, and stayed to themselves totally.
The prettiest house in the area. Nice upscale cars and no hassles ever from them. I wished some of my other neighbors were so well behaved….Some of my other neighbors let their yards go, and one I had running battle with after his dogs kept getting loose and harassing older folks walking their dogs in the evenings. I finally bent an alum bat on one of his dogs before they and he got the msg... Not peep from the offender. Sometimes people make a single mistake and pay for it. Sometimes the offenders are really really bad predators.
You can’t know the diff, so we have to watch them all all the time. When I finally moved I did relax from having to be alert to any activity in that offenders lot so much.
