In 1997 i was convicted of Agg. Criminal Sexual Abuse. I was sentenced to 14 years in prison which i served 9 years. I did not know that the girl was 15. I was later told by my lawyer that i was the 3rd person sent to prison in a 6 month span because of this girl. But the judge would not let that be heard in court. When i arrived to prison, the counselors told me that i should have never been sent to prison for that crime. When i paroled, my parole officer was very easy on me because he to felt that i was wrongfully convicted. When my parents were married, my dad was 26 and my mom was 15. He never was arrested nor served any jail or prison time. I had my first child when i was 15. The mother of my daughter was 18 at the time. When my mom tried to have her arrested (only because she didn't like her) the police would not do anything about it. But yet i have 6 and a half more years to do on the registery. I hold no ill will against anyone. But where is the justice? I am not able to find a good job. Which forces me me to work at a fast food resturant. Which pays little to nothing. I pay all that i can on my child support, but yet they to threaten to put me in prison because i am so far behind. My girlfriend who has known me for 16 years has a state job. And yet no one will give me a fair shake. My point is, the laws are so screwed up. Maybe beyond fixing. I just hope that the next generation can get it right. Because no one is really taking the time to look at what is really going on in this world. It seems to me its all about blame, but is there really any justice for anyone? I agree with the registry, i disagree with how its put together!

Think before you write? I agree your daughter is a victim and that who ever did that to her should be locked away for a long time. But i know for a fact that that not everyone needs to be on that registry. Don't get me wrong. I fully agrre with the registry. But there are a few people that fell through the cracks and got screwed. Did you know that 15% of people in prison are truelly not guilty! That 10% of people on death row never did anything wrong. And are later sent free with an apolgy. So think before you speak, please follow your own advice! And again, i am truelly sorry about your your child.
