Another couple lose bid on best adoptive parents of the year award..

Yet again, we have a couple that aparently believed that adoption papers gave them a free pass on abusing the children in their home. And, once again the low life scum reside within my home state. I may have to consider moving if this keeps up much longer.
SOURCEThe Fergusons are accused of abusing their children in both Union and Clark counties. On Tuesday, they pleaded not guilty to the 63 charges between them. James and Vonda Ferguson walked in the courtroom, along with more than a dozen supporters of family and friends who do not believe the allegations against them are true. James Ferguson was charged with 20 counts of child endangering, five counts of permitting child abuse and five counts of felonious assault. Vonda Ferguson is facing a few additional charges, including an extra felonious assault accusation and two other abuse-related charges. The indictments against the Fergusons' claim the two tortured or cruelly abused the children. Investigators said the Ferguson’s used corporal punishment, resulting in serious physical harm.
People, I must insist that we either start demanding more indepth background studies on those seeking to adopt, or we just quit doing it all together. There is no way that anyone will ever be able to convince me that of all the people seeking children, these two degenerates where among the most qualified. And yes, I know- there are a lot of children out there that remain in the system all there lives. I know that too many times, there are just not enough homes to place children in- BUT I have to think that when given the option of being in a facility for children in need, or being tortured, most kids will pick the facility.

Guided by practical experience and not theory, especially in medicine Kennedy hate crimes rider may doom Hatch's sex offender bill By Robert Gehrke The Salt Lake Tribune WASHINGTON - A fight over federal hate crimes legislation could torpedo Sen. Orrin Hatch's push to strengthen the nation's sex-offender registries and clamp down on sex crimes. The Senate Judiciary Committee gave quick, unanimous approval to Hatch's bill Thursday, clearing its way for consideration by the full Senate. But Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., said he plans to try to attach language to a bill that would require tougher sentences, provide federal assistance and offer grants to prosecute hate crimes - those motivated by hatred for a race, religion, gender or sexual orientation.

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...
