Why is there a bond, better yet; why is he not in prison????

Scum.....He needs to be castrated!

Why would anyone leave a 7 year old alone with him?

I went to school with this creep! After all these arrest and convictions, there should be NO BOND!!!!!!

I am with Mary... Castrate Him!

Why is he not still in jail from first offense? Castration is too good for him. Sick and pitiful.

The paper needs to publish the names of the judges who sentenced him for the first two offences and the names of those on the parole board who released him.

Why was this scumbag ever let out of jail to begin with?

Arrest the family members that allowed him to be close to a 7 year old also.
