Tech-Savvy Texas Judge Cracks Down on Sex Offenders SAN ANTONIO, Texas (Reuters) - A Texas judge has deployed special screening software to stop convicted sex offenders from surfing Internet pornography sites. Judge Sam Katz of San Antonio, who handles sex offenses in the Bexar County District Court, said on Thursday that three paroled offenders have been sent back to jail after software he ordered them to install on their computers alerted probation officers that they were trying to view online pornography in defiance of his orders. ``All three of them decided to violate the terms and conditions of their probation and they accessed a pornographic site,'' Katz said. ``I should say, they tried to access it, because as soon as they tried, the service provider stopped them.'' In addition to denying them access to pornographic sites, the software also sent out e-mail messages to probation officers. ``Seventy percent of all initial contacts now between sexual deviants and children occur on the Internet,'' Katz said. ----------------------------------------------------------- Time is money.
