At least 181 K-12 educators charged with child sex crimes in first half of 2022
At least 181 K-12 educators, including four principals, were arrested on child sex-related crimes in the U.S. in the first six months of 2022, ranging from child pornography to raping students.
An analysis conducted by Fox News Digital looked at local news stories week by week featuring arrests of principals, teachers, substitute teachers and teachers’ aides on child sex-related crimes in school districts across the country. Arrests that weren’t publicized were not counted in the analysis, meaning the true number may well be higher.
The analysis found that at least 181 have been arrested between January 1 and June 30, which works out to exactly an arrest a day on average.
The registry didn’t stop them, what a surprise.
See the politicians all they want to do is make it look like all these laws that they’re putting in affect concerning sex offenders is doing the job when it is not they are misleading the public and scaring them into allowing them to put more laws into place until we become a socialist country. And then communism
We are going to have to come to accept that we are living in a moral less society that is gravely lacking in self-control. It’s only a matter of time before we will start seeing LEO’s and politicians facing the same or similar charges as these educators. In fact, this has already started.
Ban all teachers from schools! Isn’t that the way politicians handle things now days? After all if it protects just one child doesn’t that make it all worth while.
This type of behavior is ubiquitous, and it affects people from all walks of life. Plain facts.
When will we stop casting stones?
Thanks, FAC, for posting my post about this in a separate area. Just goes to show that the people on the registry aren’t the ones the public need to worry about.
Perhaps the FDLE should place a Sexual Predator indicator on their maps at every K-12 school location in the State. They can just list the person’s name as TBD.
Harsh penalties for possession of child pornography only increases the victimization of children since prosecutors assist in advising “mules” how to plant CP on the computers of political opponents of those who dare bring to light corruption.
No, prosecutors are not advising anyone to distribute child pornography.
WHAT?!?! How can this be??? You are telling me that we are sending our kids to schools, during normal school hours, and THIS is what happens? Yet people on the registry cannot sleep by schools when they are CLOSED! 🤦♀️🤷♀️
Daphne, enjoy your response. It’s time we start exposing these restrictions for the fool hardy efforts that they are.
Florida has more laws than any other state this includes Texas ,California,and New York that pertain to sex offenses more and more Fl. counties are putting ordinances into law that prevent sex offenders from living or going anywhere where children “MAY” congregate for any reason and it’s only going to get worse. By definition a child is a person who is of age 12 and under,persons who are 13 to 20 as a young adult amd 21 and over as an adult.But yet (This is prescribed by Fl. law)more and more counties,cities,and states are using the definition of 18 and under because it has broader implications.
Pasco County has a County ordinance that pertains to out-of-state registrants (If you visit on vacation or family or friends) where it states that an out-of-state registrant must register in the first 24 hours if you do not you are liable to be arrested henceforth you violate Florida state registration law which now means that you are liable to spend up to 5 years in a state prison so it’s only going to get worse it’s not going to get better until you get people in office who understand what the registry actually does and who it harms
I’d like to see the stats for registered citizen sexual offenses (recidivism) during this same period…..
Is it time to start making schools off-limits for educators? Crazy, but I would not put it past some of these county commissioners to try it in the name of child safety. What a ‘lunny’ time we are living in!
I’m so glad the registry and all its restrictions and all the laws associated with sex crimes protected these kids from being sexually abused.
Unfortunately, child exploitation and sexual assault will always be present in our society. No amount of laws, no registries is ever going to prevent ANYONE from committing a sexual crime against a kid or anyone else. The majority of people know the registries exist, yet people still commit acts that can place them on one. I won’t even go into how recidivism is astronomically low for one of us already on the registry. I think the main reason is because most of us were sentenced to prison and we never want to go back. I know that’s the case for me. It wasn’t a pleasant experience. I like my freedom. In fact, I cherish it. All I could think about while locked up was how much I missed the little things in life, like being outside after 9:00 pm, walking to the corner store for a Coke, eating what I want, when I want. So many other things people take for granted. But its not the only reason I’ll never do it again. Its because I grew the hell up and changed my way of thinking and now realize what I did was wrong, even though it was a consensual act. Prison changed me in so many ways and I’m not the 20 something year old idiot I once was. But being listed on the registry would never stop me or anyone else from reoffending. Its my conscience and remembering the price I paid that prevents me from reoffending.
Registries are useless and a waste of money, and placing people on them does nothing to prevent future crimes. Its like closing the barn door after the horse escapes. We need to find ways to prevent sex crimes from happening in the first place, not perpetually punish those who have already served there sentences.
