Gov’t To House Sex Offenders In Fenceless Building Next To Children’s School

What Could Go Wrong? Gov’t To House Sex Offenders In Fenceless Building Next To Children’s School Outrage is erupting among government officials and parents as a decision has been announced to house sex offenders in an ‘open prison,’ with no fence, right by a children’s school. Even the police chief is speaking out about the decision, noting that it is a “serious concern.” Students at Appleton Thorn Primary School in Cheshire, UK will soon start seeing an influx of child molesters and rapists moving in next door as the Ministry of Justice begins relocating sex offenders as part of a new program. The announcement was received with outrage by Cheshire Police and Crime Commissioner David Keane who called an urgent meeting to address this incredibly poor decision. Last week, Keane released the following statement in regard to the move. “I WAS MADE AWARE OF THE GOVERNMENT’S DECISION TO AUTHORISE HMP THORN CROSS TO ACCEPT CATEGORY D MEN CONVICTED OF SEXUAL OFFENCES BY THE END OF THE YEAR YESTERDAY AFTERNOON VIA A VERBAL UPDATE FROM THE PRISON. I SUBSEQUENTLY RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HER MAJESTY’S PRISON AND PROBATION SERVICE (HMPPS) TO INFORM ME OF THIS CHANGE. “I HAVEN’T BEEN CONSULTED REGARDING THIS DECISION; A DECISION WHICH WILL HAVE OBVIOUS IMPLICATIONS FOR THE LOCAL COMMUNITY. I HAVE WRITTEN TO THE GOVERNMENT REQUESTING AN URGENT MEETING TO DISCUSS WHY THIS PRISON HAS BEEN CHOSEN, ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING ITS PROXIMITY TO LOCAL HOUSING AND WITH IT BEING SITUATED DIRECTLY OPPOSITE A PRIMARY SCHOOL.
