I'm not excusing what he did, but he needs a job. Should he stay on the dole forever? If he got work as a road sweeper or in a chip shop, would we be bothered? Why shouldn't he work in a decent restaurant? It doesn't sound as if he is a habitual preyer on young girls, and he made a terrible mistake through lack of maturity.

BlackadderV - "If he reoffends he will go back to prison, but if not he will be rehabilitated."
But in order to put that plan into practice - young people are at risk, and what happens to the one or more young girls on whom he proves that he is still an active paedophile, and is sent back to prison?
I think this thread highlights the seriously difficult moral and ethical problem that exists around the potential rehabilitation of sex offenders.
On the one hand, society rightly wants to give offenders a chance to live a normal life when they have served their sentences, on the other, it risks the safety of children while it finds out if such people are safe in the suder community.
It is a very difficult situation, and I have to confess that I am unable to come to a rational decision.

Hmmmm......I'm a bit conflicted on this.
Yes, he's certainly a rapist, but it is by no means certain that (despite the age of the girl he raped) that he is any sort of 'paedophile'.
Consigning him to the scrapheap of life at the age of 24 will, I'm sure, only serve to make sure that he becomes embittered and who knows where that might lead?
Offering him the chance to become a fully integrated member of society may well be the best option.
If he cannot help himself and shows any signs of 'reverting to type' then he should be permanently withdrawn from society.

I wonder if Jamie knew anything about it??? It's wrong but like every other scenario the law say if he's done his time then he's free to be where ever he needs to be.
Can't remember who said paedophilia was a choice? its becoming apparent the more I've read this week that rape or the culture of what rape is, forced sex, I a choice for some too. Getting to be a strange old world where real values are a thing of the past.
Okay, it's probably illegal for JO not to hire him subject to the Rehab of Offenders Act, a job/apprenticeship in a kitchen is unlikely to bring him into direct contact with customers. From those angles it's a little different.
As we get older there's really no stigma attached to age but where children are involved society needs to protect them as much as is possible. There is some context here as he was still a teenager granted 12 is bit rediculous, if i'd met my wife when she was 17 me 14 nearly 15, she'd have been labelled a paedophile too. There should be no grey areas in law where Paedophilia is concerned!
