[Vision2020] Ten Sitler Questions

[J Ford]

Since this "guy" has set his-self up as some kind of expert on Sitler, 
(remember? he says he's been "counseling" Sitler!) how is it he has these 
type of questions, but not the answers?

>>RE. Steven Shier
>>
>>
>>
>>Dear Ms. Squires,
>>
>>
>>
>>This note is in response lo our Telephone conversation today. During the
>>weekly check in time for the offender group I lead for Valley Treatment
>>Specialties Mr. Sitler reported that he had masturbated on two occasions
>>during the previous week. When asked for more detail about the 
>>circumstances
>>and fantasies he experienced during his masturbation he reported that he 
>>had
>>been looking in a neighbor's window with his binoculars. As a result he
>>became aroused and later masturbated. He denied viewing anyone at the
>>residence but acknowledged that he was aroused by looking in the window. 
>>He
>>stated to the group that voyeurism is one of the behaviors be engaged in
>>prior to and leading up to the offences he was convicted of.
>>
>>
>>
>>I consider this to be a very high risk behavior for Mr. Sitler considering
>>he had been out of jail less than a month at the lime he reported the
>>behavior. In my mind this behavior constitutes a violation of his parole 
>>and
>>of his treatment contract with Valley Treatment Specialties.
>>
>>
>>
>>Thank you for your consideration in this matter.
>>
>>
>>
>>/s/

>>Dalton Lombard
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>The contents of this letter and other events raise some questions.
>>
>>
>>
>>First, with respect to the binoculars:
>>
>>
>>
>>1.    When did Sitler acquire the binoculars?
>>
>>2.    Did he previously possess them and someone returned them to him, did
>>he lately acquire them, or did someone lately acquire them for him?
>>
>>
>>
>>Given his history of voyeurism and its leading up pedophilic incidents:
>>
>>
>>
>>3.    What was his motivation for either acquiring or keeping the
>>binoculars?
>>
>>4.    Shouldn't the possession of binoculars been a no-no in his probation
>>agreement?
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>Second, considering the comment "I consider this to be a very high risk
>>behavior for Mr. Sitler" from his therapist:
>>
>>
>>
>>5.    Why was bail granted at all?
>>
>>6.    Is he not a high risk to reoffend?
>>
>>7.    Why hasn't a Motion to Revoke Probation been filed by the
>>prosecuting attorney so that an evidentiary hearing can be held and a
>>decision whether to revoke probation or not be made by the court?
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>There is a new letter from Dr. Lombard to Judge Stegner now in the file:
>>
>>
>>
>>8.    Why has this letter been sealed?
>>
>>9.    Aren't the citizens whose children who are now at risk with Sitler
>>out on probation entitled to the information which would allow them to:
>>
>>        a.    Evaluate the risk?
>>
>>        b.    Express their opinions to the prosecutor, media, etc.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>Sitler was ordered by the court to vacate his current residence on June
>>19, 2007.  Today is June 29, 2007.  The screen snapshot just below was 
>>taken
>>at 7:30 pm today (06/29/07).
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>According to the Idaho Central Sexual Offender Website
>>http://www.isp.state.id.us/identification/sex_offender/obligations.html 
>>Sitler
>>is obligated to:
>>
>>
>>
>>Within 2 working days of changing the address or location of residence
>>within the county where the sex offender is registered, the offender must
>>complete an address change form in person with the sheriff of that county 
>>of
>>the change.
>>
>>
>>
>>OR
>>
>>
>>
>>Within 5 working days of moving to another state, the registered sex
>>offender must provide written notice of the move to the central sex 
>>offender
>>registry. The person must also register in the other State within the time
>>period required by that State, but not to exceed 10 days.
>>
>>
>>
>>10.    Has Sitler complied with the above but for administrative
>>ineptitude his State of Idaho sexual offender profile has not yet been
>>updated?
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>As of now, a status hearing on this matter is scheduled for Monday, July
>>2nd at 2:00 pm.  Since schedules can change, those interested should call
>>the Clerk of the Court's office early Monday to check for any change
>>(Courthouse:  882-8580).
