<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=3>For the future of the community what this
unfortunate exchange, probably initially born out of extreme frustration,
illustrates more than anything in my opinion is that currently the methods and
means of disseminating information about pedophiles and other high risk
offenders present in our community is cumbersome and is not working very
well.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=3>Excuse me for repeating: The local media
needs to keeps us informed with pictures, address, and a summary and brief
description of the offenses whenever an offender moves into or changes location
in the area. Also, an officially maintained website with a click and
view map would also be an even greater help for those with internet
access.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=3>It all seems to me that the state law dealing
with where certain kinds of sexual offenders can live needs to strengthened to
include minimum distances from day care centers, parks, and other places where
children are likely to be found. I also think the 500' distance from
schools in the current statute is too little a distance.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=3>I agree with parts of Tom Ivie's earlier
post. We ought not be lumping all sex offenders together and treating them
alike. Some pose much, much greater danger to the community than
others. We need to recognize this and adjust the statutes
accordingly.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=3>That said, however, we need to rethink about what
to do with serial pedophiles and other dangerous offenders once they are
released. In my opinion, the balance between the rights of a pedophile who
has served his sentence and the safety of children in a community are skewed
presently in favor of the offenders in Idaho.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=3>Although some ugly comments have appeared in the
general discussions of Sitler, what is positive is that some people are willing
now to deal openly with the issue and discuss it in open and candid terms.
>From this I hope positive change can come.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=3>Child sexual abuse is difficult to eradicate or
even reduce because of the serious amount of undetected cases and
unreported once detected cases. That this situation exists does not speak
well of our general commitment to the safety of our community's
children.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>I was in Spokane most of yesterday and missed the exchange
regarding Phil Gray, but while Debbie says it better than I ever could, I will
say this:<BR><BR>Enough.<BR><BR>Phil Gray, like all of the other deputies and
police officers, is a hero in a community sadly lacking in them. My
alliance, as it were, is with people who speak the truth when they know it and
seek the truth when they don't have it. It's not with name-calling
bombthrowers, no matter how much they dislike Christ Church. A concern
about a local organization is not enough of a point of commonality for me to
accept recklessness like this, and I have to express my deep regret to Debbie
and Phil and everyone else painted with such a venomous brush. It's wrong

appear<BR>> <BR>> Dear JFord (or may I call you Jackie?)<BR>> <BR>>
As the spouse of the Sheriff's Deputy you vilify<BR>> below, I am, frankly,
enraged and nauseated by your<BR>> ignorant, paranoid remarks about his
“duty” to<BR>> participate in your ridiculous witch hunt against<BR>>
Steven Sitler. <BR>> <BR>> JFord writes: "Since it has come as some kind
of<BR>> surprise as to where Sitler was living - at least a<BR>> surprise
to his neighbors - and since we can't seem to<BR>> get the Sheriff's
cooperation in letting their own<BR>> neighbors know when one of them moves
in next door...”<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> “And how about the fact that a
Sheriff's Deputy,<BR>> living in the same neighborhood as Sitler DID
NOTHING<BR>> TO WARN THE OTHER RESIDENTS NOR THE DA NOR THE<BR>> SHERIFF'S
OFFICE that Sitler may be in violation of<BR>> his parole conditions. THERE's
someone that need to<BR>> have his job yanked!”<BR>> <BR>> Who is this
“we” of which you speak? Is there a<BR>> neighborhood watch group I should be
introduced to<BR>> (Citizen Advocates for Christ Church Arrests…
CACCA)?<BR>> And do remind me again where you live, because I don’t<BR>>
recall meeting you during the past 10 years I’ve lived<BR>> in this
neighborhood… <BR>> <BR>> Do you know how my husband found out Sitler
moved in 5<BR>> houses down from us? I told him. How did I find out?<BR>>
By checking the Idaho State Registered Sex Offender<BR>> List. Because that’s
what it’s FOR. To provide<BR>> information accessible to all. He doesn't get
secret<BR>> missives tracking the location and activity of every<BR>>
known criminal / registered sex offender / etc. We<BR>> have told several of
our neighbors since we found out<BR>> but, unlike YOU, weren't compelled to
canvas the<BR>> neighborhood spreading the word about one person in<BR>>
particular based on your hatred of the church he<BR>> attended. That seems
fairly hypocritical, too, given<BR>> that there are a few other registered
sex offenders<BR>> living in this same neighborhood (see for example:<BR>>
Buckingham, Robert, 595 W C St., let’s see that on the<BR>> map). Where is
the outcry and uproar about this person<BR>> and his proximity to West Park
and the<BR>> Almon-Asbury-Lieuellan Park? (Hint, he’s closer to<BR>> both
than Sitler was.) He's lived here for a while,<BR>> but I haven't seen you in
the neighborhood stalking<BR>> him or heard of you harassing the DA,
probation<BR>> office, etc about him. <BR>> <BR>> Your motives are so
incredibly transparent here and<BR>> yet you claim to want only to protect
the children.<BR>> Whatever. What about all the registered sex
offenders<BR>> in this county? Not a peep on Vision2020 about any of<BR>>
them until Christ Church was involved. <BR>> <BR>> Bill Thompson stated
that the location of Sitler’s<BR>> residence is not in violation of his
parole. His<BR>> actions are what triggered his parole violation. How<BR>>
many other individuals have violated their probation<BR>> or parole
guidelines in the past month and for what<BR>> crimes are they on p/p for?
Oh, not keeping track of<BR>> anyone else, right? My bad. <BR>> <BR>>
And now not only do I have to worry about Mr. Sitler<BR>> and his voyeurism,
I can now worry about your<BR>> psychotic stalking behavior. How is it that
you know a<BR>> sheriff's deputy lives in this neighborhood? What
have<BR>> you been doing in this neighborhood? We’re surrounded<BR>> by
several dead end streets, it’s NOT a neighborhood<BR>> that people just
happen to drive by unless they’re<BR>> here for a reason (stalking,
harassment, snooping,<BR>> surveillance, mentally unstable behaviors of
all<BR>> varieties). Frankly, your comments are creeping me out<BR>> more
than the fact that Steven Sitler lived 5 houses<BR>> away from us. <BR>>
<BR>> As for whether the sheriff’s office or other law<BR>> enforcement
people or judges or attorneys must alert<BR>> their neighborhood to every
criminal that moves in…I<BR>> didn't realize it was in the scope of their
work to<BR>> review the terms and conditions of each and every<BR>>
probation and parole client in order to determine<BR>> whether there is or
MAY BE a violation. In fact, it is<BR>> not. That would be the job of let's
call it 'probation<BR>> and parole.' There are hundreds of people in
this<BR>> town / county who’ve served time in jail, been<BR>> arrested,
been convicted, etc of a variety of crimes.<BR>> Why are you limiting your
outcry to one particular<BR>> person? What makes this ONE potential
probationer<BR>> unique to you? Hmmmmm. Could it be?? His affiliation<BR>>
with Christ Church?? <BR>> <BR>> And ignoring all your other <insert
synonym for<BR>> ignorant because I can’t think of any more><BR>>
accusations and outcries, demanding that my husband<BR>> lose his job for his
failure to “WARN THE OTHER<BR>> RESIDENTS NOR THE DA NOR THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE
that<BR>> Sitler may be in violation of his parole conditions”<BR>> is so
ridiculously idiotic that you have almost left<BR>> me speechless. <BR>>
<BR>> Of all the things that our local law enforcement<BR>> officers have
dealt with in the past 30 days ALONE,<BR>> and especially my husband because
I know exactly what<BR>> he HAS being dealing with and you have the<BR>>
self-centered, twisted, hate-filled SICK mind to want<BR>> him fired for ….
WHAT? What, exactly was he supposed<BR>> to do in order to fulfill your
fantasy needs of law<BR>> enforcement services AS APPLIED TO THE NARROW
CONFINES<BR>> OF PEOPLE WHO HATE ANYTHING TO DO WITH CHRIST CHURCH.<BR>>
<BR>> Perhaps it would be best for you to return to your<BR>> residence,
put the tinfoil back on your windows and<BR>> shut your mouth. You’re not
doing this for the<BR>> children. You’re on a hate-motivated witch hunt and
it<BR>> and you are disgusting.<BR>> <BR>> Debbie Gray <BR>>
