Arizona Predator Strikes Again

Chandler, AZ has a problem. In an unsettling update, it seems that a sexual predator who attacks young girls has struck again:
Arizona- The first occurred on Jan. 16, when a man dressed as a utility worker tried to get into a house on Hamilton St. about 8:40 a.m. There were two girls in the house who fought back and the suspect fled.

The suspect has also been tied to the Jan. 31 assault on a 14 year-old girl at an apartment complex near McQueen and Knox Rds. The suspect forced his way into her apartment as she left for school just after 8:00 a.m.

[...]

The latest attack took place about 7 a.m. on Friday, but was not reported until Sunday afternoon.

Griner said the victim’s mother had left for work. A short time later, the suspect got into the house and drew a weapon.

The victim told officers a similar incident happened about a month ago. In that case, a man gained entry into the house, then woke her up claiming a nearby house was on fire.


UPDATES:

Foxnews has a little more on this:
The female victims are raped in their bedrooms and foyers, police said. The attacker carries a weapon, threatens the girls and always manages to escape. He has raped three teenage girls since January, according to local police.

"The suspect is watching the victims prior to when he attacks them. He knows when the parents are leaving," Chandler Police Department spokesman Sgt. Rick Griner told FOXNews.com on Tuesday.


The predator scum bag could be living near, or working near a particular area of Chandler, as all of his known attacks have happened near the same stretch of road:
All of his attacks blamed on the predator have occurred within a 1.5-mile stretch around McQueen Road, from north of Ray Road to south of Chandler Boulevard. Police believe the attacker probably lives nearby.

The arrows in the image to the left don't reflect addresses, just the roads of the attacks, and with McQueen Road running down the center of the image. The suspect is said to be a Hispanic male who speaks English, with a spanish accent. He may be driving a white, newer model, Ford F-150 four door pick up truck with tinted windows and an unknown Arizona plate. Due to clothing he was wearing during one attack, he may have recently had a job painting, as he had spots of light blue and white paint drops on them.

Anyone with any information on the suspect is encouraged to call Silent Witness at (800) 343-8477 or the Chandler Police Department at (480) 782-4130.

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...
