This morning on the Early Show there was a story about a man who, 22 years ago, was convicted of raping a 13-year old girl. In the '70s and '80s he was a serial rapist who stalked women while jogging and then raped them, becoming known as the Jogger Rapist. After his conviction, he was sentenced to 30 years in prison. Now he's up for parole. Here's the real kicker, and reason why this story completely pissed me off. The parole board recommended that the serial rapist be paroled, despite REPEATED PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATIONS THAT SHOW HE IS VERY LIKELY TO REPEAT HIS CRIME. Who is on this parole board, and would they mind if their 13-year old's rapist was let go if there was a 75% chance he'd rape other little girls?
K, that's my rant.
