My grandfather committed a minor sex offense when he was 23 years old.
He took a leak in public and was seen by an 11 year old girl.
He was convicted of indecent exposure to a minor.
He is now 82 years old.
Because of the media frenzy on sex offenders and the fact he is a registered sex offender – the Old Folks Home kicked him out.
I don’t have the resources to take care of him and now he has NOWHERE TO GO.
NO other old folks home will take him because of his sex offense status.
Because the old folks home is private they have the right to deny.
Any government assisted old folks home won’t take him either – they have a right because of government bureaucracy.
It happened almost 60 years ago.
Three lawyers I have spoken to said there is nothing that can be done.
Does anybody know what can be done?

Go camp out in Washington and call the media.
Until then, contact your local churches and find help.

The story sounds a little far fetched. First of all, 60 years ago there wasn't a requirement for sex offenders to register. You may want to tell us the whole story. Or is this just a made up story?

Did they register sex offenders over 60 years ago?I don't think you've been told the whole story.I find it incredible that such a minor offence could result in you Grandad getting turfed out of an old folks home 60 odd years later.If i were you,i would pay one of those on-line agencies to check your Granda's criminal history.Good luck.

If this is actually true and exactly as you say it's ridiculous. This entire country places too much emphasis on stupid **** but the problem is we're too damn politically correct. If they would just kill ACTUAL sex offenders (i.e. molesters and rapists and such) then we'd have a lot fewer problems and people wouldn't have to persecute those who make a dumbass mistake like a public piss. Problem is we're a country full of pussified assholes who scream and cry about every little thing so I wish you the best of luck.

This S*cks, there is not much you can do, but try the ACLU....
How was he registered as a sex offender...where did they get 60 year old paper files that were in storage more than likely
I tend to agree with HEX

Thats impossible...there can't be a file on him for peeing in public 60 years ago...that was in the 1950's. They didn't make people register as a sex offender...So, whats up? Why is her registered as a sex offender. Check the sex offender registry in the state where it happened. Mabye he lied to you.

An optimistic view would be you have the potential for opportunity here. Get a loan and start your OWN business for a retirement home where you don't deny elderly convicted sex offenders with an environment suitable for their elderly status!
Best wishes.

in no way in peeing in public related to sex at all-- therefore, he wasn't charged with a sex offense for peeing-- Good try though
But other than that-- ur just gonna have to suck it up-- and let him come live with ya.
