I have a professional counselor friend who was sharing with me the typical profile of these beast. I don't rember the exact stats but it was something along the lines of 20-60, white, male, professional, church attender, etc, etc, etc,. Her point being they could be anyone. Worst part is they are probably working with children in some capacity. The reality is, the easiest sex offender to protect our kids from is the one we know about. I see a couple of the ones on the list around here at Kroger once and awhile. What creeps me out is it always makes me wonder who's on the isle that's not on the list. Same counselor told me they tend to avoid kids that have really solid relationships with their parents. Of course that info makes me feel better about my kids safety but makes me despise the offender even more. They are hunting for the wounded
All predators do this......week or wounded. I make sure my friends and family understand this fact so they don't "look" the part.
