Police said a sexual predator in Jacksonville was attacked Saturday night by eight men who claimed he tried to grab a 12-year-old child on the street.
Officials said the men confronted John Childers, 46, and beat him with their fists. Police found Childers on the ground in front of the Evergreen Avenue half-way house where he lived and called rescue.
Childers had bruises on his head and face, but was not hospitalized.
Witnesses told police that eight men arrived in a 1993 Lincoln Continental and another vehicle, beat Childers, then left. The witness said the men had come around looking for Childers before.
Childers has been convicted of lewd and lascivious acts on a child under 16. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement said he had registered as a sex offender at the halfway house address.

how sad
Stopped beating too soon.
Im sure it will feel better when it stops hurting. Put some ice on it, perv.
and just think, he has the rest of his life to get more
Gee...that's too bad.
Should have beat him with the Lincoln Continental.
he would have mor than afew scrapes
They should have lashed a rope to his johnson and drug him down the street until there was nothing left to pull.
Unless you owned a 1993 Linc, how could you make this id? And if you could id the Linc, why not the other 'vehicle?
My guess is the witnesses were giving false information. Good for them. If it was me, and I was somehow not involved in the attitude adjustment, I would have said they all arrived in an alien spaceship and described a group of grays.
What a noose and lamp post weren't handy?
Too bad. And I mean it. At least the neighbors went in the right direction.
"Police found Childers on the ground in front of the Evergreen Avenue half-way house where he lived and called rescue."
Well he was off to a real fine start.
This is what happens when JUSTICE is not served .. the public gets mad. The more the bleeding hearts support these perps, the more often this is going to happen.
Woo Hoo!
bump to the top!
This is the way it should be!
An article like this makes my day! Thanks for posting it.
Ping the banglist for the self defense aspect of this story!
