I just found out there is a convicted Sexual Offender living in my neighborhood which is within 1 mile of an Elementary and a High School. I thought they were not supposed to live near a school?

He was convicted of: Carnal knowledge of a child 13-15 years old. Do you call being worried about someone like that a "witch hunt". How sad. Oh, and it is also less than 1 mile.

Depends upon which state and/or city you live in. In the state of Florida, for example, sexual predators cannot live 1000 feet from a school, park, daycare, or any place where children gather, unless the city and/or county laws are more strict. I suggest doing some research on the internet regarding your local laws, or call the non-emergency number for your local police station; they would be able to help you.

people can be convicted of a 'sexual' offense for many different reasons.
if cops find a couple of people messing around in a car, they can be charged and potentially convicted of a sex offense and made to be on the register for 20 years.
before you start your witch hunt, why not find out what the guy actually did...

Depends on each state's statute.

1 mile, you said close, 1 mile is not close.
