Will you write your state representative and others who are in position to change the law?

Question

I don't have the actual numbers, as it varies, but on average people who rob a bank (without a weapon) spend much more time in prison than do child molesters and kidnappers. Do you remember the California case of Steven Stayner? The man kept Steven from the time he was 7 until he was 14. He also abducted Timmy. They were rescued after Timmy's abduction. The man accused of the crime only spent 5 years in jail. He's back in prison for trying to buy a 4 year old boy for $500 This tells me that our laws protect our money more than our children. Recently, Shawn Hornbeck was found in the apartment of Michael Devlin. Michael has been accused of abducting Shawn over 4 years ago. They found Shawn after Michael had kidnapped Ben Ownby. Authorities believe there have been other children abducted by Devlin -still missing Attorneys are currently working on the case. How long will he spend in jail? My answer -Not Long Enough!
Something needs to be done to get these predators off the street. Please do something about this problem. Use your emotions, your heart, and your voice to put these thoughts in the minds of others who are in position to change the law. Put sexual predators and abductors behind bars for life. What is more important to you? Money or Children?

Answer 1

There are many organizations people can join to work on bringing stronger legislation to this area. I know their is one called Parents for Megan's Laws which advocates for sex offender registries. Also I am passionate about this subject and I only vote for the politicians who take a strong stand on greater law enforcement against pedofiles.

Answer 2

An easier idea to get through congress is to make the laws consistant. We have a '3 strikes law' that has people doing life for simple possession.
