The case arises out of the 5th Circuit Court, which as you and I now is extremely conservative so it is no surprise that the court held that the burden falls upon Doyle Randall Paroline to find and go after all other sex offenders for monetary compensation, rather than it being the burden of the victim to do so.

What about the person that created the pron in the first place?? That is the person who should pay if anyone! Surely the victim knows who the abuser is??? This upsets me a great deal!

I have been following this restitution nonsense since these cases started to be filed. Sometimes I have to just close my eyes, shake my head, and wonder where American went wrong to keep beating these guys and their families down.

This is not the country I once knew.

If case some of you do not read the entire article, I want to post a comment written by the wife of an SO.

Here it is and it conveys my thoughts exactly:


"So, the 3 images my husband unknowingly possessed should serve as an additional avenue to rid him - and me, and his kids - of what is already a slim to zero chance of moving on after serving his sentence?

He already cant get work. I thank God we have a place to live with open minded neighbors. He'll be on the public registry for life. He served 3 years for 3 images. He also got 10 years of probation, on top of incarceration! Let's not forget the 15k in fines. Toss in probation fees, lie detector fees, weekly and NEVER ENDING state mandated "therapy" at $40 a pop and we're lucky to feed ourselves!

So now it's a great idea to make him hunt down others who possessed a picture he had no idea he had, nor has no idea how he got? Hire a PI with all that money that grows on a tree in the back yard? Search the internet that he's forbidden to use? Have me do it on top of my 70 hours a week to keep us fed and housed?

Pray tell, PLEASE explain it to me Mr. Fancy Pants professor, how in the world is this going to work??? Have you ever actually spoken to any of these men, or the families, of these folks who have had their lives destroyed by these rabid laws? No? Well, here are a few resources for you.

Last note of interest, surely there is some irony somewhere that the most rabidly conservative federal circuit is the ONLY court to find that this is possibly sane? When all the others have only partially found it constitutional? I find this so congruent with the harsh laws here in the land of those of us who suffer under this stupid court. And how ignorant of you to fail to consider all sides of the issue. Where does it end?

Try a day in our shoes, the convicted and their families, then tell us all how this will work in the real world. PLEASE"

This stuff is now making the news hear.
