    Just FYI that a registered sex offender is working at Taco Bell in SW. Carnal knowledge of a child 13-16 I think is the offense. I subscribe to the Official alerts that come out and have been amazed at the amount of alerts that have recently come out.

    §18.2-63 Carnal Knowledge of a Child Between 13 and 15 Years of Age

    If any person carnally knows, without the use of force, a child thirteen years of age or older but under fifteen years of age, such person shall be guilty of a Class 4 felony.

    However, if such child is thirteen years of age or older but under fifteen years of age and consents to sexual intercourse and the accused is a minor and such consenting child is three years or more the accused's junior, the accused shall be guilty of a Class 6 felony. If such consenting child is less than three years the accused's junior, the accused shall be guilty of a Class 4 misdemeanor.

    In calculating whether such child is three years or more a junior of the accused minor, the actual dates of birth of the child and the accused, respectively, shall be used.
    For the purposes of this section, (i) a child under the age of thirteen years shall not be considered a consenting child and (ii) "carnal knowledge" includes the acts of sexual intercourse, cunnilingus, fellatio, anallingus, anal intercourse, and animate and inanimate object sexual penetration.

    From my reading of the above statute, it appears he (assuming it's a guy) would be a teenager who had sexual contact with a teen girl age 13-15. It could have been "consensual" and they could have been the same age. If I had a teenage daughter working there, I'd wanna know about it.

    Thank you for posting SD - I meant 13 - 15 and could not edit the original post.

    I agree - it could be that simple. Personally, if they are registered and are anywhere near my child, I want to know. Granted there are worse offenses.

    It could also be a girl who was convicted of the committing the offense on a boy. or two girls or two boys.

    In the case where both are minors, are they still able to be charged with the crime sex offender? If so, does the girl get into trouble also since technically the boy is a minor too.

    Once labeled an offender ALWAYS labeled an offender! I think sometimes it's just stupidity on the young teens (boys and girls) part and not always as serious as what it looks. Whereas in other cases it's horrible and the label and the punishment fit the crime.

    I don't think so. Usually the offender is of legal age.

    If he was convicted in 2005 and he's 27 now, then in 2005 he would have been 26 or 27. The minor involved could have been 17, but we don't know.

    They recently had a dateline episode on sex offenders and it concentrated on people who were on the list because they had concentual sex as teenagers, the girls parents found out, filed a report on the boyfriend and now they are registered sex offenders. In one case the dad dropped the charges on the 17 year old kid, but the police did not. They considered it illegal since the girl was 16 and not at the legal age to concent to sex. Even though she did concent to it. The story went on to say that he is on the sex offender list, is not allowed near any of his children's school (the couple has since married and have 3 children) for any parent/teacher confrences and the kids have had a hard time making friends because all the neighbors know he is a registered sex offender.

    I remember seeing that show too. Sad! It should depend on the situation.

    Rape - first offense is castration!

    Because the testicles make spermatozoa and testosterone, their removal results not only in sterility but also in loss of testosterone-dependent characteristics, including sex drive and the more typically male aggressive competitive drive in life. Historically in some societies, these effects were deliberately achieved in the creation of eunuchs, who would pose no sexual threat...

    Stupid teens having sex - counseling

    Help the young teens understand what such a decision means, perhaps find out why they are seeking out such affections. I know that sexual hormones are a big play but if a 12-13year old is having sex, I as a parent would want to know why my child felt the need to find such affection.

    Its been a looooooong time, but I remember studying this issue in college and at the time chemical castration was becoming very popular. In the end it became mainly voluntary as part of plea bargains, etc. I think. I don't remember what the courts rulings were. Studies at the time were showing that although it removed the sexual violence threats that could be perpetrated using one's "ding-a-ling" it did nothing to change the violent nature of the perpetrators and, in fact, in many cases it appeared to actually cause frustration to the degree that they were moved to commit other violent acts-including sexual violence using other things as weapons. In the end, rape isn't about sex, its about violence. And a violent offender will general find a way to be violent with our without adequate testosterone for "lift off".

    I'm not saying to 'just' castrated them. We would still have them watched like we do currently... jail time, probation, offender lists in addition to castration. And doing nothing still doesn't stop them from being violent. I'd love to read more about the effects of castration and the effects of decrease testosterone and like hormones on aggression.

    What do you mean by chemical castration? Did the men still have their testicles? If so I'd like to know if there would be a different result from what your study suggested with 'chemical' castration vs actual removal of the testicles.
