A pedophile is someone attracted to children under the age of twelve. Gender of the child is usually irrelevant. A sex offender could have been caught urinating in public or having consensual sex in public. In this case, he was in his early twenties and had had sex with a female between the age of twelve and fifteen. I'm hoping that the girl was fifteen, not twelve, but we have no way of knowing that without the court records. Sadly, not that uncommon for a young man to be dating a young teenager. So, to me, his sex crime is the lesser issue -- his armed robbery convictions are far more worrisome.
Here's hoping he has gone to his parents to start a new life and that he has a chance to do so.
