Good point, Ron. Keep in mind that the term "level" is best remembered as a "community notification level" and not a "risk level." Risk of reoffense has something to with the assignment of level, but not everything.

I get fired up when that term (level three sex offender) is tossed out as a threat to the safety of our children. What exactly is this offenders preferred victim? If its children then you are justifiably upset/outraged. If its middle aged women then the children are probably safe from his attacks. Lets try and get more of the facts behind the title before we go half cocked looking to string someone up. > > Now on another note. If this particular case you bring up is so bad, then give us more details like what church and what preacher. What is this guys MO for sex crimes. If he truly is being moved around as you claim then there must be some sort of problem. Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention, but give us more to go on > Ron Leurquin > Nokomis East > > Joan wrote: > Booker and ALL others > In Hawthorne we have a Level Three Offender Housed in a Church. On a corner across from a PARK, kitty corner from a School. Yes I said housed in the church! The Minister calls himself a community advocate when it suites him, yet he keeps moving this offender from place to place. > I hope people who attend this church are aware of this. I know that at our church people feel children are safer and allow them more freedom. > Joan Thom > Hawthorne > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Booker Hodges > To: Minneapolis Issues > Sent: Tuesday, March 08, 2005 10:10 PM > Subject: [Mpls] North Mpls Sex offender on the loose neighborhood notnoteified > > > In September of 2004 I wrote an article about sex offenders and today a relative of the sex offender on my block told me that James Vanwyhe is a fugitive from justice because he committed another sex offense and went on the run. I just don't understand why these people get to rome free in my neighborhood unchecked and unsupervised. I have attached a copy of the article that I wrote and a link to the wanted poster for James. I am sick of this she#to. Every crappy thing you can think of is dumped in North Minneapolis. Tomorrow I will flyer my block so my neighbors at least have some ideal of what is going on.
