So the Judge doesnt want to tarnish the predators name, or tarnish his reputation in the community, so even with evidence showing numerous offenses of sexual assault against his very own daughter, the honorable Judge Bennett decided to dismiss the case. So now their is a Pedophile still on the street and a child who will never be the same.

All I can say to this one is........
"If any of you put a stumbling block before one of these little ones who believe in me, it would be better for you if a great millstone were fastened around your neck and you were drowned in the depth of the sea. Woe to the world because of stumbling blocks! Occasions for stumbling are bound to come, but woe to the one by whom the stumbling block comes!"

Coping with post deployment
Almost everyone who has spent time in Iraq or Afghanistan
has experienced something very stressful. Studies show that deployed to these areas find that traumatic experiences—such as being attacked or ambushed, having to handle or uncover human remains, and knowing someone who was seriously injured or killed—are common. If a family member had similar experiences in Iraq or Afghanistan, he or she is not alone. Considerations for those coming home and those at home waiting for you.
Be aware that some things may have changed while you were gone.
Expect your partner to be 'different'.
'Roles' at home may have changed in order to manage normal chores.
Your expectations may be different from your partner's expectations. Talk about them.
Face-to-face communication may be hard at first.
Expect friends/partner to remember promises made by phone/letters.
Sexual intimacy may be awkward at first.
Partners may be more independent and have learned new coping skills - this doesn't mean you're less loved or less important.
Friends/partners may have new friends, job, support systems.
You may have changed in your outlook on life and with your priorities - how do friends/family fit into this?
Expect the possibility of a homecoming 'letdown' (things do not necessarily go to plan or expectation).
Children have grown and will be 'different' in many ways.
That 'perfect' reunion with your child may not occur.
Go easy on stories about where you have been or what you have done.
Considerations for those that stayed home:
1. The member on deployment may have 'changed'.
2. Members may be unused to the noise and confusion of family or unused to crowds/cities/heat/cold/quiet.
3. Members may feel 'threatened' by their partner's new friends/support systems, or wonder how they fit into this group of friends or the family now.
4. Members may feel hurt if the children are slow to show affection.
5. Avoid scheduling too many activities or get-togethers.
6. Go slow in making adjustments and be patient.
7. Remind home-comer that they're still needed and much loved.
Tips for readjusting:
8. Talk to each other and listen.
9. Remember previously unresolved problems may surface.
10. Support good things your friends/partner/family have done.
11. Be prepared to make some adjustments.
12. Go slowly when re-establishing your place with friends/family.
13. Curb any desire to take immediate control.
14. Give each other a little space.
15. Expect that things that worked before might not work now.
Remember there are support agencies that can help you to talk things through
TALKING WITH OTHERS
Communication is key to dealing with post-deployment stress and can help make the adjustment easier for everyone.
Your Family Member. Talking with your returning family member is an important way to become comfortable with each other again after a separation, and talking can provide very important support for you both. Your family member may not want to talk about deployment, and you may not want to talk about your own post-deployment stress. But often the best thing for families is to talk openly about thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. This will let you work together to move forward. It is normal for families to need time to adjust when a person returns home from deployment. Keeping the lines of communication open can help. It may be helpful to set aside a time every day to check in; for example, in the morning before your day begins or before going to sleep at night.
Children. Children are usually comfortable with routines, so they may have a hard time with the changes that occur when your family member comes home. Depending on their age, they may have questions and concerns. It is often more scary for children when they feel kept in the dark, so if your child asks questions, you can explain what is going on in a way that they will understand. Children need to know that it’s okay to ask questions—a lot will be changing when your family member comes home, but expecting children to follow the same family rules is important, too. As with your returning family member, think about scheduling a regular time with your children to check in. Reassure them that someone will always be available to take care of them.
Health Care Providers. If you are feeling overwhelmed after your family member comes home, you can talk in private with a health care provider, such as a doctor, nurse, psychologist, or other mental health professional. They will be familiar with the ups and downs that families can experience when a person returns home from deployment. Make an appointment specifically to discuss how you are feeling. Don’t feel like you’ve got only one chance to ask a health care provider for help. After your first appointment, set up another appointment so that you and the provider can follow up on your progress. If you decide to meet with a mental health professional, you may meet on a regular basis (likely once a week) until things settle down and you feel less overwhelmed.
Other Family Members of Veterans. It can be helpful to connect with other people who have recently welcomed a military family member home. Your local hospital or VA may have a network you can use to contact other families of people that have returned from deployment, experiencing similar feelings and emotions.
YOU MUST ALWAYS BE PATIENT WITH YOURSELF AND EACH OTHER. Don’t expect improvement overnight—if your family member is dealing with PTSD, TBI, or depression, it can take time for him or her to recover and time for you to adjust. Things will probably feel a little easier every day. It may help to slowly return to your normal routines as a family. After the reunion, it can sometimes feel like you are making mistakes or doing things "wrong." Try not to blame yourself. Remember that readjustment after deployment is complicated and that everyone—family members and returning veterans—can make mistakes, even when they are doing the best they can.

Randall Hopley has pleaded guilty to abducting three-year-old Kienan Hebert from his home in southeast B.C. last fall.
He entered guilty pleas to abduction of a person under the age of 14 and break and enter Monday in Cranbrook Supreme Court. He also pleaded not guilty to kidnapping, but that charge is expected to be stayed.
Hebert was snatched from his bedroom in Sparwood in the early hours of Sept. 7, sparking a manhunt that spanned two provinces and was the subject of two separate Amber Alerts. The little boy was returned to his empty family home unharmed on Sept. 11 and Hopley was arrested at an abandoned cabin near the B.C.-Alberta border two days later after an intensive search.
Police have released few details about where Hebert was during his disappearance, but Hopley was considered a person of interest in the abduction from the first day.
Hopley has a criminal record that stretches back more than two decades, and includes sexual assault, assault and numerous break-and-enters.
Perhaps the most troubling incident in Hopley's criminal history is an attempt to abduct a 10-year-old Sparwood boy in 2008. He admitted to the crime, but charges of unlawful confinement and attempted abduction were stayed.
Instead, Hopley was sentenced to 18 months in jail for break-and-enter.
He was also arrested in Alberta in 2010 after a family found him squatting in their cabin. They say he had filled the drawers with stolen children's clothing, chocolate bars and sex toys and built a room that could be locked from the outside.

Randall Hopley was identified at the age of 21 as a dangerous pedophile after sexually assaulting a five-year-old boy in 1985 and was considered to be a high risk to reoffend unless he was in a penitentiary or under 24-hour supervision in the community.
Mr. Hopley was unsuitable for psychological counselling because he lacked motivation and had limited mental abilities.

Should Canada's prostitution laws be changed? - Your Community
Should Canada's prostitution laws be changed? - Your Community
Legalizing prostitution anywhere in the world says that we accept it as a career for any and all of our young woman to sell their bodies for money. Hence....doubling the number of sexual abuse and sexual assaults and trafficking. Instead of legalizing prostitution the worlds governments should be implementing more programs to help prostitutes get off the streets, to help them recover from any addictions (if any) and to help them find a steady career that they can live off of. As demand for sex workers increases, women from other countries have been brought in illegally. These women and many children continue to be exploited. Therefore if prostitution is legalized this exploitation will only increase and that’s not right!

And this is currently, just registered predators.
This is the banality of evil when ordinary people who accepted the premises of their actions, therefore participated with the view that their actions were justified. Emphasizing the importance of "normalizing the unthinkable." ie: "doing terrible things in an organized and systematic way, rests on 'normalization.' This is the process whereby ugly, degrading, murderous, and unspeakable acts become routine and are accepted as 'the way things are done.'

B.C. teacher sex trial hears final witnesses
Woman accused of seducing her male Grade 7 student in two-year-affairhttp://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/story/2012/03/23/bc-teacher-sex-trial.html
The trial of a former Vernon, B.C., teacher accused of having a sexual relationship with a Grade 7 student will end with final arguments from lawyers on Tuesday.
Defendant Deborah Ashton did not take the stand in her own defence Friday as her trial on five sex-related charges heard its final testimony. Instead, Ashton's lawyer called only two witnesses, Ashton's brother and her daughter.
The testimony that each provided conflicted with
what the alleged victim told the Vernon, B.C., court when the trial got under way March 5.
Ashton’s brother said the student, who he described as a "skinny teenager," stayed at their parent's home in Metro Vancouver while attending basketball tournament in 2003.
The alleged victim testified he stayed for two nights over the Labour Day weekend. But the brother said it was only for one night and was in July.
Ashton's daughter then told the court she saw her mother give the alleged victim a hug in the kitchen of their home but not a kiss as the man, now 22, had testified.
Defence lawyer Terry La Liberte told reporters outside court that there was no need for his client to testify.
Ashton did testify last year in her first trial,
which ended in a mistrial due to a hung jury.
"I don't see she has to get on the stand in a case like this," La Liberte said. "I'm trying to show the weaknesses in the Crown’s case and that this young man's evidence is unreliable."
The Crown alleges the two-year affair began in 2002, when the 12-year-old was a Grade 7 student taught by Ashton, then 37.
Charges were laid in 2008 after an anonymous letter alleging the affair was sent to school district officials.
La Liberte accused Ashton’s ex-husband, Mike Jellema, of writing the letter out of revenge at a time when the marriage was crumbling,
which he denied in his testimony.
On Friday it was revealed in court that someone from inside the school system, not Jellema, had recently confessed to the RCMP that they had written the letter.
This second trial is being heard by a Supreme Court Justice without a jury.

Enforcement and Removal Operations
Enforcement and Removal Operations
Its quite Interesting that ICE/ERO are doing such an excellent job, that because they made an arrest for child porn, broke up a major child trafficking ring or deported an illegal immagrant...that some ungrateful entity wants to complain about the human rights of of the criminal. That they now have to have a liaison acting to mediate complaints. How insulting is that? These Agents put their lives onthe line day in and day out.....on duty and off duty. To all of those who feel that there is a need for the Public Advocacy Position, Think about all of those children sexually abused and then killed by predators........ what do you think of their "rights"
I would suggest that we be grateful to ICE/ERO for doing what they do.
What do you think ?
Public Advocate Position
U.S. Immigration and Customs (ICE) is committed to intelligent, effective, safe and humane enforcement of the nation's immigration laws. ICE seeks to enforce those laws fairly and with respect for individual rights and circumstances. To these ends, ICE has created the position of public advocate. The public advocate works directly for ICE's Executive Assistant Director of Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO). This individual builds constructive relationships with the community and helps resolve problems or concerns.Its quite Interesting that ICE/ERO are doing such an excellent job, that because they made an arrest for child porn, broke up a major child trafficking ring or deported an illegal immagrant...that some ungrateful entity wants to complain about the human rights of of the criminal.

ICE deports convicted child predator wanted in Canada for child sex crimes
PHILADELPHIA – A Canadian national who was wanted on sexual assault and child pornography charges in his home country, was deported and turned over to Canadian law enforcement officials March 20 by officers with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO).
William John Krygsman, 41, was transferred to the custody of Canadian authorities in Ontario by ERO officers. Krygsman was wanted in Canada for sexual assault, production and possession of child pornography.
Krygsman was arrested in May 2004 by the FBI in Atlanta where he had traveled from Canada to meet a mother – an undercover agent – and her supposed prepubescent child. He was convicted in November 2004 in U.S. District Court, Northern District of Georgia, and sentenced to 108 months in prison on the charges of use of mail or foreign commerce to entice a minor. At the conclusion of his sentence, he was arrested by ERO officers and detained in Pennsylvania until his deportation from the United States.
"Krygsman's removal to Canada again demonstrates how ICE will not allow criminal aliens to use the United States as a safe haven from their crimes," said Thomas Decker, field office director for ERO Philadelphia. "ICE works closely with our international law enforcement partners to identify, locate and deport aliens who are wanted in their home countries."
Since Oct. 1, 2009, ERO has removed about 260 foreign fugitives from the United States who were being sought in their native countries for serious crimes, including kidnapping, rape and murder. ERO works with ICE's Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Office of International Affairs, foreign consular offices in the United States, and Interpol to identify foreign fugitives illegally present in the country.
The removal was coordinated with HSI's Office of International Affairs, Consulate General of Canada in Buffalo, N.Y., U.S. National Central Bureau of Interpol, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
AN OPEN QUESTION FOR DISCUSSION:
1) "Do you think having the criminal serve his/her time in prison in the Country of Arrest, prior to his deportation back to his home country is crucial to the economy? and why?"
2) "Do you believe that the criminal should serve prison time, once he/she returns to his/her home country

Being a Woman in a Man's World
So with that said, let me clarify: I am Feminine, not a Feminist. I am a Woman, not a Warrior. I am a Mother, not a Moron.
There isn't anything more appealing or heart-warming to me than a Real Man. Let me define what I believe to be a Real Man:
A man who knows how to take control and maintain control with firm, gentle authority.
A man with empathy.
A man with compassion.
A man who laughs from his belly.
A man who understands and takes pride in his role as a provider and respects how a woman may provide in her own way.
A man who understands that most women and girls look up to men for protection and who does not exploit his noble role in this regard.
A man who understands that the minds of men and woman are wired differently for the most part, but the challenge and delight should be in finding and establishing Common Ground where differences of opinion may be respected, conflict may be resolved and harmony reigns over chaos.
I know that these men exist. In my life they have been and are:
- my Grandfather who fought so bravely for five years in North Africa during WWII;
- my Father who worked from the age of 12 to support his mother and his many siblings and who always provided so wonderfully for us, not just financially, but morally and emotionally;
- my husband who gave up a career in his beloved country and who served in a war on foreign soil to protect me, his children and his country. A man who still believes in Chivalry and doing the Right Thing:
- my older brother who fought for two years in the South African Bush War to protect our rights and freedoms;
- my younger brother who studied day and night to become a History Professor and thereby honor the lives of Winston Churchill, Ike Eisenhower, Edmund Burke and the like,
- Scot Filer of Lionsgate Investigations & Risk Management, who is a man of great vision, compassion and intelligence - a man who takes pride in protecting his family, colleagues, community and country;
- Dr. Robert Hare, who has dedicated his life to studying psychopaths and providing the civil and professional community with resources to survive their onslaught;
- Paul Gillespie of KINSA who worked tirelessly with the Ontario Provincial Police and now heads the Kids Internet Safety Alliance, nuking online predators and offering hope to law enforcement involved in preventing the exploitation of children online;
- Steve Harvey, performer and author of Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man!
- John Walsh of America's Most Wanted,( what a tenacious, righteous man and heart-broken Dad,)
- Marc Klaas of the Klaas Foundation
- Steve Daley, founder of radKIDS Personal Empowerment and Safety Education
- Captain Robert Greenberg, Founder of Law Enforcement Today (LET)
- Gabriel García Márquez, magical author and hopeless Romantic
- Elie Wiesel, survivor of the Holocaust and author of "Night",
- Dr. Wayne Dyer, survivor, husband, father, author of "My Greatest Teacher"
- Mitch Albom, father, husband, Author of "Tuesdays with Morrie"
- Father Malachi Martin, Catholic Priest and exorcist
- the Dalai Lama
- all the many marvelous men who blessed us with their poetry, novels, masterpieces, art, film-making, singing and song-writing over the centuries,
- and last, but not least, my King, Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
These are some of the most powerful men I have had the privilege of knowing and I look forward to a future of devoted collaboration for the same common cause: protecting and investing in our Children.
My reason for publishing this post is because it saddens me to the core to read and hear about the constant conflict between Dads and Moms, Women and Men, Republicans and Femi-Nazis....while they are engrossed in useless argument, children suffer, and child predators flourish.
One of my most important goals as President of the Views of the Child Society is to quench this unnecessary fire and redirect that energy, from reasonable men and women, towards Common Ground where our Children may take safe haven,while we figure out new methods and implement new laws for child protection and prosperity.
I look forward to working with those of you who are Master of their emotions and who will accompany me on this righteous path.
