A young man from Cape Breton commited suicide in Boston after local police attempted to arrest him for the murders of two sexual deviants in Maine. He learned of their locations from the Maine State website that listed all the sexual predators living in the State. Since the incident,Maine has taken down the website amid worries of lawsuits from other deviants who feel threatened and exposed now to the general public. Now, these folks have some small idea of what their victims have gone through by their actions & I hope this has some effect on them.

If true, hardly a capitol offense.
This is the problem with public sex offender registries. You could, a very short time ago at least, be judged a sex offender for getting a blow job or having anal sex with your wife, for God's sake.
This is also the problem with vigilantism. I know there are monsters out there, and I don't care how the are punished, nor do I care who delivers the punishment, BUT one must be sure they are punishing the monster.
Quoting
Now, I don't know that this is true, but the family of the younger man killed claimed the offense that put him on the registry was simply getting caught having sex with his underage girlfriend.

There was an article In the local rag yesterday that stated that one of the deceased males on the Sexual Offender's Registry was on the list because he had a relationship with a minor (she 15 he was 1
he served his time and he then married that minor, she was his wife.

Most of these perverts
would be better left to our courts. I said "most" not all. I think I could happily put a bullet through Olsen's brain to save the taxpayer the $100,000.00 or so we pay every year, to keep the bastard alive.
The other problem here is the "sex criminal registry" that somehow puts a label on people who don't deserve it. Government by committee??

Just wait until all the costs involved in the BC PigFarmer murders is added up--am sure it will be in the millions. Years ago,one of my daughters told me that a local man had molested her & I went after him and beat the man badly. I thought I was right in what I did at that time...but have had many doubts about my actions since.

If the guy did molest your daughter, he deserved everything he got and probably more. I am convinced that child molesters cannot be "cured" and that they will always be a threat. We don't seem to have a sentence of "life in prison" without some caveat that says he might eventually get out again. Child rape and murder is the one crime that I would support the death penalty for. I know we will never have a death penalty again for several good reasons, but crimes against children just make my blood boil.
