Shocking Figures

We have sets of laws which make it compulsory for anyone working with children to be thoroughly vetted to prove they are safe adults and not likely to assault the children in their care. Every person who works with children and young adults has to have a CRB (Criminal Records Bureau Check) to ensure they are not going to attack, molest or in any way assault the children or young adults in their care)

Yet according to the latest figures (April 2008 – March 2009) sixty sex crimes are committed against children EVERY DAY. This equates to more than 21,000 sex offences against children in the year.

Are we breeding a nation of paedophiles and perverts? What good is it putting an offender on a sex register if he/she cannot be tracked seven days a week, fifty two weeks a year? How many repeat offenders do we have within these figures?

How do the likes of Ian Huntley still manage to get jobs where children are within easy reach? Many of our offenders are given a second chance.

Why not solve the problem of re offending by handing down a sentence of castration for the first offence????
