What can we do to change child abuse laws, especially of sexual predators?

Written by admin on April 17, 2009 – 4:05 pm -

I am doing a research project and I have found that most children that have been abducted and murdered have been killed by known sexual offenders, many of them doing no or little time in prision for that. What is going on and what can we do do fix this tragedy in America?

To add, what about kids getting beaten too and the justice system allowing them to go back to that envinroment?

If you can stand it look at this…it will make you cry, but these videos were made to make people open their eyes more. Laws need to be changed, and not at the cost of little lives lost like these two precious children.

This law (http://www.answers.com/topic/protect-act-of-2003 ) attempts to deal with some of those issues:

-Provides for mandatory life imprisonment of sex offenses against a minor if the offender has had a prior conviction of abuse against a minor, with some exceptions.
-Eliminates statutes of limitations for child abduction or child abuse.
-Bars pretrial release of persons charged with specified offenses against or involving children.
