Reply #55: I was just looking

Records are there for a reason. When I was younger I was taught that one reason you should watch what you do because it will follow you around. It kept me from doing a lot of things.
I am in the middle of helping a woman I know find out some info on some man she met and we have found out that he has a record a mile long. He has a few stalking charges going back to 1996 and as recent as 2003. He also has a date violence charge and many other entries on his record.
As I was looking in to it I found some other things on people and just started typing names in.
I just work with this guy and I am civil to him, but I think that if the courts found it important enough to make him register as a sexual offender, then there is nothing wrong with me knowing it also.
People should have to learn that they are responsible for their actions and there are too many people who think that when a person does something that is wrong, it should be tucked away and no one should know. I am one of the people who think that you have to be held responsible when you commit a crime.
