Police seeking sex offender

New Jersey police in Middlesex County are seeking a registered sex offender for failing to register. After reading the following article on him I can safely say that this man poses a great threat to the safety of children, and is what I consider in great need of a lifetime in prison. There is a five hundred dollar reward for his whereabouts- although I favor turning him in just for the ability to keep him away from future victims, not for the money.

"MIDDLESEX COUNTY — A former male stripper convicted of the attempted sexual assault of a 5-year-old girl he abducted from her parents' front yard in Woodbridge is being sought by authorities after he failed to register his address as a sex offender.

Ronald J. Amate, 43, was convicted in 1993 of the assault on the girl in August 1991. He also admitted to sexually assaulting a 9-year-old girl in Woodbridge by exposing himself then touching the girl's chest before fleeing.

Amate served five years in the prison for sex offenders in Avenel on a 10-year sentence, getting out in 1998.

In February 2000, Amate registered his address with Woodbridge police, listing it as Chain-O-Hills Road in Woodbridge, where he lived when the assaults took place.

He failed to reregister in 2002.

A grand jury indicted him on the fourth-degree charge of failing to provide his address to police in May 2002.

On Aug. 22, 1991, the 5-year-old girl's mother happened to look out the window and saw a man later identified as Amate grab the child and start walking away as he was trying to pull off the child's shorts, authorities said.

Her father jumped out the window, chasing the man shoeless. Police found Amate in the woods off Ronald Drive in the Avenel section of the township.

The sexual assault of the 9-year-old girl in Woodbridge took place on July 17, 1990.

Amate is 6 feet tall, weighs about 189 pounds, and has brown eyes and brown hair.



The Middlesex County Prosecutor's Office is asking anyone with information on the fugitive to call (732) 745-3362 during weekdays and (732) 745-3300 on nights and weekends.

Authorities are urging anyone coming into contact with Amate not to try to apprehend him.

The Prosecutor's Office is offering rewards of up to $500 for information leading to the capture of fugitives wanted on charges in the county."

Florida Sex Offender Registry

Reading the news today, I was taken back to see that the Florida Sex Offender registry was being criticized. Having had the chance to look at it previously, I had always found it rather informative, and well organized. The issue that many are having with it now wouldn't be noticed by the occasional browser on the site. Which makes it even worse. A review of the FSR has found some rather unsettling statistics: The News-Press analyzed the Florida Department of Law Enforcement database of 36,306 sex offenders and found: • 9,205 of them are incarcerated • 7,037 have run away or can't be found • 824 have been deported; and • 516 are dead. Of the 15,573 sex offenders listed as released and not on parole or probation, only 11,355 of those actually live in Florida. Sex offender registries can only be usefully, and only fully do what they where designed to do when they are updated, maintained and monitored continuously. When you are relying on the SO registries to monitors how safe your...

WTW Someone Please Help Us

There's so much to work with, I'm going to just hit as much as I can. Ashely Simpson decided to pick a fight at McDonald's. Betting millions that if the employee would just go and get the manager- the manager would just love her. Simpson's climbing on the counter and irate behavior where in typical White Trash Style. Great coverage at Stereogum. Tom Cruise has decidedly canned his sister for her inability to help him keep his mouth shut. Evidently he needs a real professional as his PR person- in order to keep him in line. It's just not right firing family because you're and idiot. Kate Hudson is suing someone because of photos of her in which she looks like a starving actress. She claims the images suggest she has a eating disorder- no Kate, it's not the images, it's the you. One should not sue because they have starved themselves to the point of it being noticeable in photos. Please stop by these other great sites to read more WHITE TRASH WEDNESDAY B...

$167.90

He received $167.90 to serve on the jury. It couldn't have been an easy case to listen to. Hearing of how a 13 year old was raped by a 38 year old man who had befriended the family, it'd be enough to make most people turn in repulsion. But the juror did what he was suppose to, and long with the 11 other people who sat by his side- he found the defendant guilty. Believing that the child, who had come from a broken home- a mother battling drugs and a father who wasn't there- deserved justice, the 12 people performed their moral, ethical and judicial duty and sentenced Gregory Bryant to 30 years in prison. One would think that Bruse Funkhouser had earned that $167.90. Perhaps it would cover a small portion of the income that he lost while serving his duty to the courts. Perhaps it would just give him a little extra change in his pocket. So, you might wonder what would cause Funkhouser to return the check to the court house...
