All Detective DiMezza said was that the recidivism rate is a concern. Also, your numbers are entirely inaccurate. Were you aware that most sex offenders have been comitting sex offenses for an average of 16 years before being caught? Also, 52% of all diagnosed pedophiles commit a new sex offense during the next 25 years. They may not commit the crime immediately after being released but studies show that over half will in the next 25 years. This is the major reason why courts are sentencing these folks to lifetime supervision. What does significantly reduce the recodovism rate is sex offender treatment and employment. The only true fact that was posted was that many offenders are known to the victim....does this matter?
