Seattle-Area Pedophile Has 'How-to' Web Site for Men Seeking Little Girl Activities

Friday, March 30, 2007
Fox News

 

SEATTLE —  A Web site created by a pedophile is a virtual "how-to" manual, complete with the best places in western Washington state to see little girls, and tips on how to avoid getting caught by the police.

The site, titled "Seattle-Tacoma-Everett Girl Love," has been around for a few years. The police know all about it, yet they say they can't shut it down because the site is legal.

"As disturbing and offensive as we find this, there's no evidence of a crime, or even suspicion of illegal activity," said Rebecca Hover of the Snohomish County Sheriff's Department.

The man who runs it, 45-year-old Jack McClellan, has never been convicted of a sex crime, which means he can attend any family-friendly events where children are present, and take all the pictures he wants for his Web site. He also lives close to a school bus stop.

McClellan says his purpose is to promote association, friendship and legal, consensual hugging and cuddling between men and pre-pubescent girls. He admitted to FOX News that his "age of attraction" is between 3 and 11 years old.

"I guess the main thing is I just think they're cute, a lot cuter than women. I admit there is kind of an erotic arousal there," McClellan said.

Point of View

     It's getting really scary when it gets to the point that pictures of our children are winding up being posted up on some pedophile's web site. And what's even scarier is not being able to do anything about it! As parents, we have to sign a permission slip just for our kid's school to even use their image. But pedophiles can just go follow our kids around and post their photos on some sick site? That's insane!

   I do not post my family photos up on my own site. I know many others do but I don't - and for a good reason. I don't want some on line predator seeing any pictures of my family. MY Space is banned from our computer. Our son is not allowed to visit that sight, especially after he had created a site last year and posted his picture. That came down real fast. That's for his safety. While the Internet can be a terrific tool, it can also lead some pervert right to your own back yard.

     I grew up in a very small town on the Eastern Shore. At the time, it was a terrific place to grow up. We kids ran and played throughout our neighborhoods from morning to dusk. Parents didn't have to worry about someone coming along and snatching their kid. You didn't hear the kind of horror stories that we see daily on the news casts today.

    However, years later, while I was in nursing school, a 10 year old friend of my brother's had been very sick. Finally, after several months of being homebound, he was well enough to be allowed outside to ride his bike. That bike ride lasted only a few minutes. His parents never saw him again. The murderer later lead the police to where his body was buried.

     That was almost 30 years ago, long before any of us even thought about home computers or the web. Just think how much faster that can happen today. This madness has to be stopped! It's got to the point where our kids aren't even safe in their own back yards anymore.

     As I said before, I'm all for protecting citizen's rights. But a pedophile's rights should not come before those of our innocent children. They can't protect themselves. It's up to each of us to do it for them. We all need to be very proactive in that respect, doing everything we can to prevent access to our children.

     When I posted my own concerns about child sexual offenders in the last month, I was disheartened that there wasn't more response and concern shown from the general public, even though there were certainly many visitors each day. I was saddened and dismayed to see such apathy.

     What really disturbed me though was who actually was showing interest the most in those posts. I followed some of my visitor tracking links back to some very disturbing sites. Anyone want to take a guess as to who it was? That bothers me a great deal. I'm especially glad now that I don't have my family photos on this site!

The Voice of Maryland's People Heard Loud & Clear

For Immediate Release:

Tuesday, March 27, 2007

12:20pm

On Monday, March 26, 2007, the voice of the people of Maryland was finally heard loud and clear by the majority of the legislators in Annapolis. On behalf of Citizens for Jessica's Law of Maryland, we are pleased that the voices of the citizens of Maryland were heard in Annapolis. We would like to thank the citizens for their relentless and persistence efforts in contacting their legislators.  We would also like to thank the media for their assistance in this crusade for children.  The media is to be commended for their outstanding efforts in keeping this issue alive.

SB 413 (Jessica's Law) passed the Senate by a vote of 43-3 to strengthen the laws to keep the pedophiles who violate our children behind bars where they belong. It was passed in the House by a unanimous vote.

The three votes AGAINST this most important legislation to protect children came from Senators Brian Frosh, Montgomery County, Senator Lisa Gladden, Baltimore City, and Senator Delores Kelley, Baltimore County.

We are sure that the parents and voters in Maryland would like to know why Senators Frosh, Gladden and Kelley voted "NO" on this child sex offender bill (Jessica's Law). It has been voted favorably by almost forty states to date.

Arizona Police Search for Serial Child Rapist Suspect

Tuesday, March 27, 2007
By Liza Porteus
Fox News

    

CHANDLER, Ariz. —  A possible serial predator who stakes out children’s homes, waits for their parents to leave, then sexually assaults his young victims, is being hunted by police in Arizona.

The female victims are raped in their bedrooms and foyers, police said. The attacker carries a weapon, threatens the girls and always manages to escape. He has raped three teenage girls since January, according to local police.

"The suspect is watching the victims prior to when he attacks them. He knows when the parents are leaving," Chandler Police Department spokesman Sgt. Rick Griner told FOXNews.com on Tuesday.

Authorities believe the same man is responsible for the attacks.

North Carolina Jessica Law Supporters Send Congrats To Maryland !

     Point of View

     I just received word from Jerry Norton that the house bill passed at around 5pm this evening. For myself, my family and all the children of MD, I can't begin to thank all the wonderful, dedicated people, who have brought this about, enough.

     While I realize there are some who may have issues with Jessica's law, my fellow colleagues and I do believe it's the right thing to do, in order to protect our littlest ones. The ones who can't fight back and are too afraid to speak up.   

     Thank you all from the bottom of my heart!
Citizens For Jessica's Law in Maryland


     A message from Mr. Mark Palmer

          Our group from North Carolina sends much congratulations to Maryland!!

 

Finally, it seems that the Maryland General Assembly is headed in the right direction for stricter laws regarding sex offenders. There are other guide lines that can be done to help bridge some gaps. Adam Walsh Act would help fill in these gaps well as monetary bonus for state. Our group was glad to assist in Jessica's Law for Maryland. We hope that Maryland General Assembly will keep moving forward in a positive direction for strict laws and guide lines of sex offenders.

 

Still, we are fighting in North Carolina for Jessica's Law well as the Adam Walsh Act.

 

 

North Carolina

has 111,000 children yearly reported "Abused" and "Neglected.” Presently, 10,000 registered "Sex Offenders" move to a new address or jobs daily. Children, women, elderly, incapacitated or handicapped people are especially at risk from sexual predators. North Carolina is no different; our city's have large number of registered sexual offenders.

 

We hope that North Carolina lawmakers will take a stand for tougher laws against child predators. This past year, we voiced our outraged to North Carolina lawmakers for failing to provide stricter laws against sex offenders. Remember, North Carolina General Assembly our children should not be viewed as Democratic or Republican issues this is a human safety issue. Please do not allow politics and compromise to get in the way of protecting our families. Hopefully, our state lawmakers will heed the call and pass "Jessica Lunsford Act for NC ".

We need to give our full support to Rep. Tim Moore (R- Cleveland County) along with Rep. Julia Howard (R-Davie, Iredell Counties), Rep. Debbie Clary (R-Cleveland, Gaston counties), and Rep. Charles Thomas (R-Buncombe County) help pass House Bill 933.

Individuals that commit sexual crimes against children need incarceration or strict comprehensive monitoring.

 

Often, administration has failed to let law enforcement know of the placement of paroled sex offenders in their communities. Allowing violent sex offenders to go free and not providing mandatory hearings, stricter penalties for non-compliances. Has allowed dangerous parolees to remain free, even after they violated parole.

 

Presently our state lawmakers are inconclusive towards Jessica's Law. If our lawmakers would take the following steps this would be step in right direction.

 

Passing of House Bill 933, which will strength our current laws of sex offenders.

 

North Carolina Lawmakers should take advantage of the Adam Walsh Act and use the monetary bonus payment available to those states complying with the act sooner than its three-year timeline. Rather than a 10 percent reduction in Justice Assistance Grants and certain reductions of Sex Offender Management Assistance Program monies for those states that do not comply with Adam Walsh Act.

 

 

Over the past several years, I have given time to push for tougher laws, regarding sex crimes, especially sexual predators. Personally, I have worked with sexually abused children and have seen the effects. Words cannot even begin to describe seeing the rape of child’s innocent soul. The soul is amputated and takes a lifetime to repair, if ever!

Jessica’s Law Passes The MD Senate

For Immediate Release

March 26, 2007

Jessica’s Law Passes the Senate

 

Today the Maryland State Senate overwhelmingly approved SB 413, which brings Maryland sex offender laws up to the standards set forth in the nationally renowned Jessica’s Law. After a watered-down sex-offender bill passed during the Special Session last year, this year the Senate of Maryland passed a stronger piece of sex offender legislation.

 

After receiving strong opposition in the House Judiciary Committee, a stunning turn of events occurred on Saturday when House Judiciary Chairman Vallario allowed the House of Delegates version of this bill, HB 930, to come up for a vote in his committee. The bill passed unanimously and was approved on 2^nd reader before the entire House on the same day.

 

The approved legislation eliminates the possibility of parole for those convicted of 1^st and 2^nd degree sexual offenses.

 

Senator Jacobs made the following statements concerning this bill:

 

“I am thankful citizens from across the state contacted legislators to show their support for this bill. Without the public’s out-flowing of support, this bill would not have passed the Senate. This bill is not only a victory for our children, but also for our democratic institution.

 

“Today the leaders of Maryland showed they value our children by protecting them from sexual predators. These predators are the vilest members of our society and their vile actions deserve severe punishments.

 

“Our children are the most precious resource in our state. Finally, we as a state are acknowledging our obligation to protect children from those who mean them harm.

 

“After spending hundreds of millions of dollars educating our children, Maryland is finally getting serious about protecting our children from sexual predators?”
