Randall Poore is a convicted sex offender. He's just been arrested... again.
And, in what is likely the most angering comment I've read lately- police responded to his recent arrest:
Last week it seems Poore met two young girls near his home, and somehow convinced them to return to him home with him. At some point while they were inside the home, Poore was able to take sexually explicit photos of the girls. He also is accused of "sexually touching" the older child, who is 13.
Prior to that offense, another situation took place on March 26:
Police say that they sent out notices, and attempted to warn the community- but that the warning didn't "stick strongly enough", allowing this most recent offense to happen.
Ya'll know what I think: lock em up, throw away the damn key and forget about them all.

The problem is we saw this coming, and seemed to have been able to prevent it, which is very frustrating,” said Police Chief Tom Casady.

Prior to that offense, another situation took place on March 26:
The twice-convicted sex offender — who finished a 4- to 7-year sentence on an attempted first-degree sexual assault charge out of Dawson County in June — created more than a blip on Casady’s radar after an incident March 26.
That day, a 12-year-old girl says a man pushing a bike approached to her in the 3300 block of Cleveland Avenue around 3:45 p.m. on her way home from school. She later would tell police he walked alongside her and asked if he could take pictures of her with his phone. The girl was scared and pretended to be home. She cut through a backyard and ran home.
That night, she told her aunt what happened and together they looked at the Sex Offender Registry and found the man’s picture.
It was Poore, Casady said.
Police arrested him on suspicion of disturbing the peace and looked for a more serious charge that fit. Because he hadn’t asked her to get into a car, it wasn’t child enticement, a felony.
