This story highlights perfectly why the business of securing justice should be left to those who are trained in the area. I'm sure the fuckwits who put this pamphlet out thought they were so very smart and were securing some sort of 'people's justice' by publicly naming a convicted sex offender. Whilst the perpetrators sit back smugly enjoying their perverse schadenfreude, the original victim now has to deal with being publicly named and the ramifications of this. One of the big fears of anyone who's been sexually abused is that their ordeal is made public and sadly this is what's happened due to the selfish actions of an ignorant individual (or possibly a group of ignorant individuals).
I hope everyone responsible for this is caught and prosecuted to act as a deterrent to others.

well i am sure both of these things will interest lot of folks
The USA should make it illegal for untrained private citizens to disseminate registry info. Gee, do we allow the Neighborhood Watch to call in the SWAT Team? No! So why do we let biased untrained citizens harass... er, "warn" people about Former Offenders living in their communities? Its stupid. Look up Judy Cornett and her "Predator Patrol" group sometime. She's another vigilante who is in serious need of jail time. She actually made a threat on national television!
