‘America’s most wanted pedophile’ free after British judge questions U.S. justice

This is pedophile. Sound like the judge may be of the same ilk as Sullivan. The reasoning that the American justice system is inferior to the British system is rather snobbish. Perhaps he should invite the victims and their relatives to come to England and turn Sullivan over to them so they can punish him. That would solve a lot of issues: he wouldn't remain locked up and he wouldn't be able to rape anyone ever again. Just saying !!!

Americans are fed-up with our judicial system, as well, but for much different reasons. We believe that child molesters should be imprisoned for LIFE because there is no "cure" for them...therapy doesn't work. Did the judge who made this ruling take into consideration the future victims of the pedophile? What about THEIR right to live a normal life, something they will never have again after they have been molested.

The judge acted outside the scope of his judicial responsibility and the mandates of the US-UK Ectradition Treat. The petson demanded was a US citizen and the crime alleged would rise to the same level of gravity in both countries. The individual's repeated conduct and convictions resolved any issue the demand was frivolous. He's out of line both in his decision and given the Brits' own system, lecturing the US. More victims await this predator. Maybe he'll kill his next victim to conceal the crime

It IS a complex and, as some of the more intemperate "lock-em-up" posts below indicate, emotional issue. One wants to stick up for the U.S. judicial system, but Justice Moses may have had a fair point: after appointees from the Nixon, Reagan and Bush-the-Lesser administrations, it will take two decades before we can restore objective quality administration on such "hot button issues." In general we rely on our press (with the exception of Fox "News" and the New York Post - long bought out by extremists of the right wing who will do anything to exploit sexual or other scandals - ANY report using Fox "News" as its main source is suspect to any objective reader) to report in a more unbiased manner than their British tabloid brethren, but for the moment our judiciary is struggling to regain its traditional standards and balance.

This is a very complex issue. The "sex and violence" themes of the American media have "unloosed the gods of war". It now appears that pedophiles cannot be rehabilitated. You need to catch this aberration at a young age. That is why it is so tragic that the American mental health system has been dismantled to save money. The system had been based on a European model. The "freedom of expression" attitude in the states has led to right to exploit children. There have been many stories of child actors who had been exploited by the industry. Heidi Fleiss was an infamous madam who catered to furnishing underage girls to the rich. There are even allegations that Charlie Sheen was one of her clients. She was quickly found guilty of lesser crimes. The McMartin preschool case in California of long ago was quickly solved and child witnesses luaghed at and the csse went away.

He is a pedophile. He is sexually attracted to children. Who protects the children he molests? Get him off the streets.

But the U.S. has the best justice system money can buy!

Sounds like this Brit Judge is working for the Vatican or one of our American Bishops.

All very nice and good "feeling" but what about childrens rights to innocence?

Child molesting is barbaric. Keeping an eye on paedophiles so they don't re-offend is not barbaric. Get a grip.
