What is going on in The Villages? The second one since we have moved to The Villages (1 year and some months); we had heard about being a adult play zone (golf, all sort of clubs, etc….)but this ridiculous and insane and may I say scary when we have families with young children in the area (living or visiting their parents/grandparents).

The Villages is a city, not a magical place where no bad people live. The Villages is in the business of selling houses, anyone can buy a house here. There are websites that show all the people who have been arrested for such crimes. Check family watchdog dot us

The Villages is not a city of saints. It is a city of old people that live the morals and sexual inclinations they grew up with. This guy is no different and bought a house here. Arrested and more than likely will be convicted and sentenced to prison. At least in Florida they put them in prison for period of time, hopefully a long period of time. A community of our size I'm sure there are many more not just the two you mention. At 75 years old prison could be his death sentence, By my standards thats what it should be anyway.

No matter where you live, city, suburbs or rural, you have to watch your kids like a hawk.Raising my kids in Long Island NY, there were occasional alerts, especially by the school bus pick-ups.

The Villages is not immune from sex offenders. If you check the FDLE sex offender website, you’ll see plenty of sex offenders pictures and their addresses right here in the Villages. Unfortunately, it appears that Sumter County is not keeping up with offender registrations, as one particular offender’s picture hasn’t been updated since 2013. The Sheriff’s Office is responsible to make sure these registrations are up to date. Offenders must register once a year and Predators must register 4 times per year. There are specific rules and regulations Offenders must follow such as: cannot live or recreate within 1000 feet of a school, family swimming pools, parks, etc. Detectives are supposed contact Offenders every 30 days. I worked in a Sex Offender/Predator Unit for a County in Florida where there were over 1000 Offenders…woman and men. If you have questions or concerns…check with The Sumter County Sheriff’s Office.

I's not just The Villages. If you could look up the city where you came from, you might be in for a surprise. There are most likely more child pornography where you came from. You just didn't know about it. It's very sad this is going on.

It is heartening to see that federal, state and local authorities are working to crack down on child porn offenders. It is hard for me to wrap my head around how any man would want to see children being abused and violated. But Internet watchdogs, undercover operations and stings are out there to catch these very mentally ill individuals, that’s the good news.

Earl V Knight on St Andrews in Lady Lake was convicted of having videos of his teenage granddaughters, taken in his house. He got 40 months probation and goes down to Spanish Springs square almost every night and sits in front of Dunkin Donuts with his "buddies". He has no shame (his wife bailed him out and still lives with him).

Search the national offender database. The villages has a lot less offenders than the local non-villages communities.. Basically, people don't change just because they moved here.

Or perhaps he has a LOT of shame, and has chosen to accept his sentence with as much grace as he can possibly muster given the circumstances, and carry on with the rest of his life.

The Villages has a lot fewer offenders because there are a lot fewer children. Hard to be an "active" pedophile in a 55+ community where minor children aren't allowed to participate in any recreational activities without an authorized adult present.

The United Nations says that minors can consent to sex, and that this is a human right.This is what has happened to our culture.

**the UN is now & always has been a waste of time :ho:

Receiving tips that someone at his address had been uploading videos. I wonder how that works. I guess it is possible that everything we do on the computer is watched? Over dinner at a restaurant, cell phone on the table, my companion mentioned how they were looking into mechanical wheel chairs for their mother. That night on Youtube I received ads for wheelchairs. Enough to make a fellow paranoid.
