This past week in one day, two individual sexual offenders were within a few inches of me, talking to me as if they were normal human beings. I had no idea until someone clued me in. Today I visited the Tennessee Sexual Offender Registry of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation HERE. With an interactive map and easy search box, within minutes I found 18 registered sex offenders within a few miles of our home. I had no idea. And those are just the ones the TBI knows about. I’m almost afraid to think about the ones that have not been caught and prosecuted yet, who continue to harm women and children.
The crimes include SEXUAL BATTERY, STATUTORY RAPE, RAPE, CRIMINAL SEXUAL PENETRATION OF A MINOR, SOLICITATION CRIMINAL SEXUAL PENETRATION, ATTEMPT TO POSSESS CHILD PORNOGRAPHY, SEXUAL BATTERY BY AN AUTHORITY FIGURE, AGGRAVATED SEXUAL BATTERY, ATTEMPT TO COMMIT FELONY/SEX OFFENSE, SEXUAL ASSAULT IN FIRST DEGREE.

I use the Family Watchdog site–it notifies me automatically when an offender moves into or out of my neighborhood and since I live 5 minutes from my grandchildren, it helps me notify my daughter when an offender makes an appearance.
