I have a right to know if a convicted child sex offender is living next door to me-- I don't have a right to harass,humiliate or infringe on his rights.
If the state won't provide me with such notice and the news media does--so what. |

A convicted sexual predator, just released from prison, has cut off his ankle bracelet and is on the run.
39-year-old Patrick Bell broke a GPS ankle bracelet Tuesday afternoon.
He got out of prison last month after serving five years for raping and molesting a little girl.
Cops say he took off from his registered address at Paul's Hotel on Lake Worth Road, and went to his mother's apartment on Silver Beach Road in Lake Park, but has not been seen since.
The ankle bracelet was found at the mom's house.
It gives off a signal that let's the department of corrections know its been cut.
Detectives say they're concerned for the safety of all children in the area.
Authorities say if you see Bell, you should immediately call 911.
