James Bohannon

If I told you that a man was approaching victims, and forcing them at gun point to a secluded area before raping them- most of you might imagine the victims to be women. It wouldn't be your fault, but you would be wrong.

James Bohannon is accused of the rape and kidnapping of a 14-year-old boy two years ago in Boldface Park, the sexual assault of an 18 year old, and the rape of a 19 year old. In fact altogether Bohannon is accused of raping eight men and young boys over the last two years.

A former technology consultant who worked for Cincinnati Public Schools was indicted Monday on 20 charges alleging he sexually attacked eight men over the last two years.

James Bohannon, 27, of Delhi Township, was already in the Hamilton County Justice Center after being charged last month with the rape and kidnapping of a 14-year-old boy two years ago in Boldface Park.

A Hamilton County grand jury indicted Bohannon on Monday on three charges of rape, two charges of attempted rape, three charges of gross sexual imposition, eight charges of kidnapping and four charges of aggravated robbery.

In all of the attacks, Bohannon used a handgun to threaten the victims and force them into secluded areas, according to Hamilton County prosecutors.

It's not only his choice of victims, or the manner of his acts that are interesting- but take another look at where he worked- Cincinnati Public Schools. One has to wonder what the chances are that there are more victims out there, just to embarrassed to come forward.

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...
