As a husband and father of a daughter, I fully support capital punishment for child sex offenders and rapists.

My daughter is 18 and if this incident involved her, you'd be reading about the young man being missing!

I hate to say this, but I blame fathers. Many fathers don't teach their daughters how to protect themselves from predators.

ALL men are predators. We have more hormones than brains. Fathers need to teach their daughters how to use situational awareness to prevent themselves from being vulneralbe to such attacks.

Glass-- thanks for not reacting emotionally to my point---I am saying that older men (cable, certainly not ALL older men) have the capability to fool teenage girls. I am a high school teacher, and I see it all the time---young little 14 year old thing wants a man, and a 22 year old with no life starts dating her, making her think he walks on water. (Yes, this actually happens)

Admit it or not, Cable, men think about sex all the time, and some choose not to control it, like this guy in this report.

I'm sorry, but sex offenders need to be watched with more scrutiny....too much of this is happening once they get out, they are hanging around children, etc.

I understand about not holding "mistakes" over people heads, but something has to be done. Yet when you notify law enforcement about these sex offenders, their answer is "there is nothing we can do"...yet when something happens, the blame game starts and they are asking people to call in with information, etc...why, the response is always the same, "there's nothing that can be done".

They can add more officers to patrol where sex offenders live. I would rather for my tax dollars for these officers to be paid to go to ensure the safety of children and other innocent victims from these predators.

In agreement with Air Biscuit, ANY adult, male or female, offering ANY child, male or female, alcohol does not have that child's best interests in mind. ALL parents should teach ALL children not to accept alcohol from ANY adult (or any other child for that matter) as the end result will most likely be detremental to them. Better for children to hear it from their parent(s) than to learn that lesson the hard way. I impress these things on my child as they occur in an attempt to keep my child as safe as I can and in the attempt to raise a child who is aware of its surroundings. I instill awareness as opposed to fear.

Once a sex offender always a sex offender.
