I think Oprah is wonderful and she is doing such a great thing. I really think the laws need to be cahnged inregards to child molesters! I think if everyone every where stood up to fight these MONSTERS then we might get some where. These "people" should have NO rights what so ever. They make me SICK. I was sexually abused as a child by my stepfather. Recently i have been able to tell my family and charges were put on this man. I just now have been going through the pretrail. I was on the stand for ten hours over two days. NINE of which were cross examination. I was screamed at, belittled, and treated like crap. I am not the one in the wrong he is. His lawyer even said to me that i CHOSE to have this happen to me. I dont think ANY victim should have to go through this it is wrong. People hear about child molesters and they get mad but most people dont do anything. I love Oprah for what she has done i really do. I think all of these people need to be put behind bars and NEVER NEVER let out. I now have to wait for my real trail date to come up. As i wait i have to try to be a normal member of the world and its so hard. This affects so much and so many people dont understand. Victims need better rights. They should NOT be treated the way i was a few days ago on the stand. Not at all. They are the ones who have done nothing wrong. I child can NEVER chose to be molested by an adult. The adult is the one who choses and once they make that choice they should never ever have  a right again NEVER.
 
This is one topic so close to me. Thank you oprah for what you are doing. And i think its great people are talking about it. Maybe we can change things for the next person

This week in the Ft Myers area a registered sex offender has been discovered working as a janitor in a local grade school.
There was supposed to have been a background check, but everone is blaming everyone else for this oversight!
He has been fired,but I wonder how much harm he has done!

Thank you for sticking up for yourself in court, and putting yourself through all this grief so that man cannot continue to do this to other children.  What you are doing is hard, but you are helping to make this world a better place and I applaud you for that.  Cool

Awww thank you Rhune.... your gonna make me cry. I hope to have that man behind bars where he can never hurt another child. Its hard but if everyone banned together and changed some of these laws it would be so much better.

At the start of Oprah's 20th season, we launched Oprah's Child Predator Watch List, challenging viewers to catch some of America's most wanted fugitives—men charged with heinous sex crimes against children. Within just 40 hours, viewers helped the FBI capture two of them. The following month, a third fugitive was captured…and now we've caught a fourth!
 
Former scout leader William George Barney is a repeat offender charged with crimes dating back to 1988. After being charged with sexually abusing six young boys in California, Barney pled guilty to one count of lewd and lascivious conduct with a child and served less than 12 months in jail. A few years later, Barney moved to Las Vegas where he allegedly seduced his next young victim. The child said Barney molested him as many as three times a day for six years. When the boy finally told police his terrible secret, Barney vanished before Nevada authorities could question him.
 
William George Barney's life on the lam recently came to an unexpected halt after one of his friends discovered his identity. »
 
Roberto Sanchez, a resident of Ensenada, Mexico, was at an Internet cafe when he happened to come upon a familiar face online, a man he knew as "Bill." Roberto says he met Bill Barney two years ago and they grew close. Roberto saw his American friend several times a week, but Barney revealed little about his past.
 
"He [seemed] like a normal guy," Roberto says. "Like [any] retired guy in Ensenada."
 
Roberto says Barney mostly kept to himself, but some of his friend's behavior struck him as strange—especially the fact, he says, that Barney had young men over to his house in the evenings.
 
As soon as Roberto realized Barney's true identity, he contacted the FBI, who, in turn, contacted Mexican authorities. Within 48 hours, Barney was captured. After five years on the lam, Barney was returned to the United States to stand trial.
 
Jan Caldwell, a Special Agent with the FBI, thanks Oprah viewers for Barney's capture. "This is a man that very well might have gone underneath the radar for the rest of his life," she says, "and we have him off the streets. Children are safe now."
 
Roberto gets his reward. »
 
Now Oprah gets to keep her promise! Roberto Sanchez, the man responsible for bringing William George Barney to justice, tears up when Oprah announces his $100,000 reward. "What a gift you've given to the children of Mexico," she tells Roberto. "We're all very grateful to you".
