(Story on abduction and discovery of body)
What??
What? So the mother knew? SICK!
WHAT???
What nightmare is that family living?????
Almost speechless.
(What I want to type I can't.)
"Trena Gage said she's known Roger Bentley about five years. She once dated the Brandon man's brother years before. What she said she didn't know was that Roger Bentley was a registered sex offender. Bentley was convicted in 1994 of lascivious acts with a child."

((hugging my children))
"Drop Dead Silence."
My gosh.
Sigh.
And watch them isolate him because they don't want him touched.
Meanwhile, back in Florida's HellHole....
I'll go a step further. Anyone that molested any child or grandchild of mine would be dead.
Wishing we could all hug Jetseta
Sad isn't it? Unfortunately I think it's more common than we want to believe.
Some years ago I lived with a girlfriend who had an uncle in prison for child molesting. When the uncles release date got near my girlfriends mother suggested that he stay with my girlfriend, myself and her kids. The mother said he needed someplace to stay because her husband wouldn't let him stay with them.
Stupidity beyond belief.
Sho Nuff
Iowa Law only pretends to have a sex offender registry when in fact it does everything possible to make it difficult to find out who is an offender..
The general public can access the Iowa Sex Offender Registry by contacting any of the county sheriff offices or police departments within the state of Iowa. The following is required by the Iowa Sex Offender Registry to request information:
Completion of a Request for Registry Information form (DCI-150) which is available at the county sheriff's office or local police department..
The individuals name that you wish to inquire upon; AND ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING IDENTIFIERS
-- Date of Birth
-- Social Security Number
-- Address
When inquiry is made you will be notified whether or not the individual is registered. If the individual is registered. If the individual is registered with the Iowa Sex Offender Registry as of the date and time of the inquiry, you will receive a computer printout indicating that information. The printout will include the individuals name, address and physical descriptors including scars, marks and tattoos. The printout will not disclose information about the crime or the victim(s).
The name and identifier(s) of the individual you have requested information upon must match with the information contained in the database before Registry information can be released.
Iowa law DOES NOT allow for the release of an entire listing of registrants in your county, city, or neighborhood. A form must be completed for each person that you wish to inquire upon. There is no limit to the number of inquiries you can request and there is no charge to obtain this information. The purpose of the information you receive from an inquiry is to permit you to protect yourself and other family members from potential harm.
Actions taken by you against an individual including vandalism of property, verbal or written threats of harm or physical assault against this person, his or her family, or employer can result in your arrest and prosecution.
I live here in Iowa..and I wish we had the death penalty.
Don't get me wrong. The molester would be dead, but it would be without a trial.
