Just found out a "Friend" I work with is a sex offender, 2nd Conviction for extreme child molestation Options

[DEATH]

I'm so messed up in the head right now. I feel like killing this man myself and I know nothing of the child other than she was two years old and this is his second conviction. A little background:
I work at a machine/fabrication shop where I'm the head of the engineering department. That means I and the people under me design equipment and parts for equipment that performs a specific function. All of which means I'm out on the shop floor very often, making sure the parts and assemblies I design work properly before they go into mass production. One of the guys I worked pretty closely with in our weld room over the last 8 years or so was on parole for some felony or another - heck most of these guys are. It's just the sort trade that employs alot of ex-cons [I'd say there are more ex-cons than not in the male population out here in the shop]. Now granted, I didn't hang with the guy outside of work, I never had beers with him or any of that. The most I ever saw outside of work was once when he drove his car into a ditch I helped him out, drove him to work. But he seemed like this really nice old man who, yeah maybe fcuked up bad when he was younger and now was just living the rest of his life the best he could. He had several embarresing visits from his Parole Officer up here - he took them in stride, didn't get upset or overly embarresed. He seemed repentative and content to live out his last few years peacefully.
This morning I find out he won't be coming back to work anymore because he was caught sexually molesting a 2yo little girl. Nevermind the question how did he get a little girl like that alone - I have no idea of the details. Sounds to me like some parents need to be going to jail too but that's another question and I have no way of judging that situation [It's just I'm a parent and I know noone is ever allowed time like that around my children with out my knowledge and supervision]. I also found out that that was the felony he was previously convicted of and had served his time for [And I hope those of you who don't support the death penalty for sex crimes are proud of yourselves - I'm sure this little girl would thank you for your kindness if she could. Sarcasm, obviously. If we had executed him the first time this happened another little girl wouldn't have had her life ruined by this horrible act.].
As I said - It's got me messed up. I'm usually a great judge of character but I never saw this coming. I think that if I had found this out before the police did it would be me in jail for murder and him 6 feet under ATM. And I don't feel in the least bit remorseful about that.
These fcuking bastards should all be killed to protect the world's children from them. That's my opinion.
Please discuss this. Please do so maturely. Please respect other's opinions.
Mod's - I'm sorry in advance if this must be closed - I just don't know any other group this diverse that I can get other opinions from that will be different from my own.

x2 on keeping this mature and controlled.

This is a sick sad twist. Matt, you know i've got a 5month old daughter, and how much i freak out about new baby sitters! I dont know how well you knew the man, and the fact that you were blindsided by his personality (and was previously believed to be a reasonably "good" guy) Does not exempt the fact that what he has done is horrible. That makes 2 little girls lives ruined by this man. IMO that makes him a monster.

I have to admit, you are right about the death penalty, there is no room in society for people like this. There is no reason to molest children; other than being so messed up in the head, that there is no return. At witch point they should be treated like a dog with rabies. Put them down before they hurt someone else.

I also would like to know what the heck was going on with the parents of this child. How do you leave your baby with someone with a record like this? When i'm visiting family i keep my daughter in my eye-sight at ALL TIMES! i never let her leave my or my wife's attention. How can they figure to leave the little girl with a confirmed child molester, close the doors and walk away? I'd like to know what happened on their end, Depending on how this came to be, I believe that the parents should possibly face punishment as well. Suppose they left the Molester in care as a baby-sitter arrangement, the parents should DEFF face punishment. That is endangering their own child.

Dude, This is fcuked up, I agree, 100%. And someone that you knew at that, makes it all the worse; (especially knowing now, when you should have knew before) Is he going to go back into jail? Or has he just lost his job? (I've been in that welding booth, there are plenty of ways that "accidents" can happen, and those doors are thick enough that no-one would hear a thing ) j/k ( kidding to the minimal extent )

Seriously, there should (atleast) be a greater identification markers for convected child molesters. the red or blue sign in the yard isn't enough. The DL should say CHILD MOLESTER all over it. The sign in the yard should be the size of a free-way bilboard and list everything he's done. Seriously, Molestation is something that has to be planed, and you have to be one sick individual to go thru with it. Death penelty is the ultimate goal, but we should deff up the warning indicators in the mean time.
