I believe you left out a very important fact. The fact that he is a repeat offende. He is a registered …….
And that he is a goy!!!! Would they have been so quick to call the police if he was a religious Jew? The same children would be at risk of being abducted and/or violated no matter if he is a goy, a secular Jew or a religious Jew. That is the entire point. The safety and welfare of the children should be our only concern.
