yes seriously. What's the problem here? Do you think sexual predators will be lurking in the halls of ST A because of this? Do you realize sexual predators can figure out where a school is and lurk in the hood anyway? [ Reply | More

Of course, but having parolees sharing a building with a school does not seem like a *good* idea to me [ Reply | More

You are being purposely naive. Sure parolees can come into contact with kids anyway, but why actually pull them together? [ Reply | More

Are you serious? You believe that a criminal on parole is going to sell drugs in teh same building as the parole board? Hell, why not in front of a police station. Get real [ Reply | More

As an ex-criminal defense attorney, I would not be at all surprised if a parolee were to try to make contact with kids he sees on a regular basis or follow them home and yes, even in front of the parole board building. Impulse control is not one of their better things. [ Reply | More

oh please, he can follow them home if the board is housed in the same building, in the building next door, in the building two doors down or three blocks away. [ Reply | More

or if the school is right out of the subway that is nearest to the parole board location. Give it up. [ Reply | More

nope. I still wouldn't like my kid to go to school in a building housed in the same building as a parole board, and I'm thinking neither would you, in reality. [ Reply | More

You think wrong. I truly don't care. Nor do I care if a convicted sexual perv moves into my building. I protect my child from the harms as best I can. From the convicted felons/pervs AND the ones who have not been caught that also live in my building and happen to have business in the vincinity of my dcs school [ Reply | More

I am not being naive. I am asking for a reason this is a bad idea. You don't seem to be able to give a single one. Think about it. [ Reply | More

I did give one. Parolees are not allowed to go into bars; they are not allowed to gamble; they are not allowed to hang out with other parolees. There is a reason for this. It is expected that they will get into trouble, commit more crimes. You are putting predators next to children. How is that not a reason? [ Reply | More

Parolees have kids, so of course you couldn't do that. But inviting hundreds of parolees to visit a school building on a weekly or monthly basis is a different thing. [ Reply | More
