with respect to requests that he required to register as

a sex offender

The court has considered the evidence offered the statements offer

and the I will tell you the two things

that have given me the greatest concern or the fact

that he has when it appears one of the primary

reasons for the behavior for which he pled guilty dealt

with his low self esteem and self worth

While he has been in counseling for three years he

is barely scratched the surface

In addressing that issue the court is not confident that

in another five years that will be addressed or what

will happen after the five years is lapses

More importantly when his own expert tells me that she

would not want to be supervised by him that he

should not supervise women I'm being told that he should

not supervised 51.9% of the workforce in this state

The only reason I can conclude that that was recommended

was because his own expert felt that he was a

danger

T to say you cannot supervise women and she wouldn't

want to be supervised by ham means that she would

not trust him to be in a power of authority

over him over her

and that directly goes back to his own experts

Reasons why she believed he committed the offenses was because

he wanted to feel like he had control

For those reasons and all the evidence that was offered

the court finds that he is a danger to the

public is going to require him to register on the

sex offender registry for a period of 30 years

He can petition the court in 10 years uh to

be removed from that registry

All cost of the action will be taxed against him

Given the fact that he has a child

To the extent that he is in successful compliance with

the terms of his probation I'm gonna remit probation supervision

fees anything further from the state or the defense

For the record I would just note are objection to

the findings and the ruling with regard to the sex

offender registry

Your objection way would also ask specifically did subject any

court orders

I'm not preventing

I'm not preventing him from having any contact with his

own Children

And I'm not preventing him

I forget what the sex offender registry requirements are with

respect to Children

I think I have to specifically restrict is have to

find that there was a victim child which were There

are no restrictions on him with respect to being in

the presence of miners

Because that's not the nature of this event

Thank you

All right this court were being recess until 2 p.m.

I didn't know you were gonna be into him

So as long as you know I'm not here Judge

Roadway is gonna be here
