Can a sex offender work with with minors under the age of 18?

Question

If they can, what are (if there are any) restictions or guidelines that they have to follow?

The man was charged and convicted of Criminal Sexual Conduct 2nd Degree (multiple variables) and he works with children and has authority over them.

The store he works at is owned by a family member and they know of his history. Is it up to the owner or someone else to do something about it.

Answer 1

Registered sex offenders are not to be around minors unless that minor is a direct relative of the offender, and even then there are rules as to nature/duration of contact.

However, if the minors that he is working with are above the age of consent in your state, it is possible that there is an exception in the guidelines given to him based on his original crime. There are some levels of sex offender status that allow the person to have contact with minors in certain circumstances provided the minor is over the legal age of consent.

Since you do not know the specific guidelines of his registration status, contact your local law enforcement agency and tell them what's going on. They will be able to determine if he is violating the terms of his registration and then they will take any actions that need to be taken from there.

Answer 2

Report this and make certain the children are safe and bring it to the attention of the people allowing this to happen.

I have heard and I believe that this is an area of psyche that cannot be cured - in other words, once a molester, always a molester.

If he has paid his time and is not on probation, doubtful you can legally remove him, but make your community acutely aware of this situation. I know I would not let a child go within 100 yards of someone like that, much less be supervised, even if they did do their time.

Answer 3

They're not supposed to be able to but there are a lot of people who don't do background checks. Didn't you know that some department store Santa's are sex offender.

This needs to be fixed. Anywhere you come in contact with children, they should have to get thorough background checks and disallow any and all sex offenders.

Additional:

You should report him to the police, and to a social worker. You should also notify the parents of the children he works with. This is unsafe, and there children are in danger.

Answer 4

In my experience as a Tutor and adviser to children and also mentoring other tutors who were ex-convicts and ex-abusers...not to say I had a hatred towards them I was only mildly suspicious. But giving them time to interact with the children and see the affection they have for their teacher,the children to this day(most are 20-25) have showed no signs of abuse physically or mentally and have made productive lives for themselves,so in essence my answer is yes.

Answer 5

in basic terms with the aid of fact he exchange right into a minor whilst he committed the offense does no longer advise something. expenses could nicely be stated, and this is as much as the courtroom no count if to convict him or no longer and no count if/to no longer attempt him as an grownup. i be responsive to of one that lives in my section that exchange into sixteen whilst he did what he did, and spent 10 years in penal complex, and now he's out and we are terrified for our youngsters. shop your babies close!

Answer 6

No. A sex offender is not allowed to work with minors.

Answer 7

It depends on the nature of his/her punishment. Often, a judge dictates specific terms. I'm guessing the answer is generally a no.

Answer 8

they should be registered and never be near children! I's a violation of probation if they do go near children!

Answer 9

I BELIVE IN CA THAT WOULD BE A DIRECT VIOLATION OF HIS REGISTRATION . AS WE HAD A CASE OF A SEX OFFENDER TAKING A JOB THAT PUT HIM IN CONTACT WITH CHILDREN AND THAT WAS A VIOLATION FOR HIM.

Answer 10

Yes, it's called the Catholic Church.
