I also have a problem with the idea of once a sex offender, always a sex offender. This is probably true in most cases but not all.
Before people jump on me for playing devil's advocate with this idea remember that I have fought for survivors' victims' rights-- mainly about access to practical information accessible through libraries-- with great cost to my career and family as well as often the image of my mental health since January of 1991. I have a JD from the University of Minnesota Law School (Class of 1989) and represented prisoners at Legal Assistance to Minnesota Prisoners mainly at the Minnesota Correctional Facility--Stillwater. Some of these were sex offenders and most that I recall probably would not have rehabilitated. But, a small minority had a chance of doing so.
