A sex offender who admitted to molesting a small boy, but was originally charged with several counts of molesting prepubscent children is boo-hoo-ing his sentence, which includes putting up signs on his house and car designating him a sex offender. He thinks it’s been “pure hell”. What did he expect…a diamond studded tierra for his “troubles”?
Apparently, he doesn’t like to face the truth and doesn’t think other families have a right to know he likes to molest little children. I guess in his selfish mind, only he has the right to know the dangers and horrific abuse he enflicted on small children and should be able to carry on, preying on small children with ease.
I say, “Hooray for the Judge!” A judge with priorities, honor and integrity. Thank you.
District Judge Ron Svaty, you get ‘em!
Schad, 72, was originally charged with four counts of taking indecent liberties with a 9-year-old girl and an 11-year-old boy in 2005. He was allowed to plead guilty in March 2007 to a lesser charge of aggravated indecent solicitation of a child, and the original charges were dismissed.
District Judge Ron Svaty sentenced him to five years of probation and house arrest, and ordered him to post the signs during his punishment.
Schad is appealing the sign requirement. He could have faced about three years behind bars.
“I know that I deserve something for that, but I don’t think I deserve what I got,” he said.
The signs went up a few months ago. Schad said the loneliness and isolation imposed by the house arrest are the toughest to deal with.
“It’s been pure hell,” said Schad, who has lived in the town since 1971.
