the cost is of monitoring a sex offender who is on parole is 59.65 million per year for 6,998 sex offenders. just that fact alone blows my mind. i dont understand how we can come up with the money to monitor these criminals. if the jessica's law is passed, that would add 24.5 million added on to the already 59.65 million. life time monitoring should be banned, the taxpayers should not have to suffor, because of the governments stupid mistakes. life would be to simple if we didnt have to worry about sex offenders recommitting there crime. is being safe worth the cost?
