The system does not seem to protect the victims who are disabled. My son (who is autistic) was molested by his father for 6 years before he was able to tell someone. We went through the system, police, county attorney, children’s justice center, and received victim’s reparation. Everyone believed him, but the prosecutor did not prosecute. Now the father is free, may be continuing with other disable son, and wants to work with Special Olympics again.
Where is the justice? What can be done? Who is protecting the inoccent?
Utah is not helping the most innocent, the disabled. My son was sexually molested by his father for several years before he felt safe enough to tell someone. At the time he told someone he was 18 years old he is autistic, mentally challenged, seizure disorder, and upper motor neuron disorder. The local police were called, an investigation completed, children’s justice center did a physical exam, he was given therapy by rape recovery services. All of these people have worked with my son, feel he is telling the truth, or there is physical evidence. My son's father was questioned and was felt that he was lying and the detective felt he was guilty. Then it was given to the county attorney and he decided to "pass on it”. My son was not creditable to go through a trial they say.
Where is the justice for this group of individuals? Who is helping them stay safe from there own friends and family? Why is his dad still walking out there possible preying on others? We have another disable son and with no conviction I have no resources to keep him safe. He is also returning to his volunteering with special olympics. Where is the justice?

i think utah needs better sex offender crime punishments
Joan...the police did not request him to take a lie detector test?
Many offenders can manipulate enough to slip under the radar. You can still keep an eye on him and see if he chooses a "favorite" child. Or , if he is creating reasons for children to "stay overnight" with him. I'm sure he won't get away with it a second time and you should participate if it goes to court on another case. Then again, he is considered innocent until nabbed. Educate yourself on the warning signs of sexual offense.

Hello,
Is there a way to report anonymously a case of adult having sex with underage girl in South Jordan Utah?
The parents are feared for unknown reason so they keep quiet. But i just want to stop this insanity!
Thanks
Hope you get some answers for this question. I would call the Dept of Human Services at your state and tell them of your problem. They may suggest a way to help you. Tell them you want to talk to someone about an ongoing sexual abuse situation.

I will have to agree with you that Utah needs to do more to protect kids against sex offenders. I know of some one that gave his information and a major Pizza company allowed him to work for them with under age children and now he is back in prison Thank GOD!! but still he should have never been allowed after he was convicted the first time to be put in a work area with kids. Utah needs to protect the kids

I want to know why someone can be taken off this list when they are a sexual offender.

Sex offenders are the saddest excuse for human beings on the face of the planet. In my opinion, they can never reform because their desires are hardwired into their brain from birth. These 'people' should never be released from jail, and/or prison. There are so many in my area and I'm afraid to let my sister play outside by herself. The legislature should create new laws with harder crackdowns on sex offenders. Their punishments are pretty small compared to what other crimes are punished. Murder is just as bad as a sexual crime and should adhere to the same guidelines. Ugh, you people make me SICK.

So you are a judge? If the offender is "hotwired" from birth, then they must not be responsible for their actions. nope. I think not. Look into a mirror and see if your sins are less.

Things wont change due to the fact that everyone is to liberal as long as they just slap there butts things won't change.
This is how it should be to stop the kind of abuse.
put them to death the same day they are found guilty. no death row no nothing death the jerks would quit doing it. if they new they was going to die.

what about the few people charged as sex offenders that were simply lie to about the true age of the party they "supposedly" made a victim. i think the girls and boys who lie about their age and get another person charged with such a horrible label should be the one put in jail!
