(Memphis 3/2/2012)

A convicted sex offender who was supposed to stay away from children is accused of raping a five year old girl.

Twenty-Nine-Year-Old Marcert Sanford was released from jail in May of 2010 after serving a portion of a ten-year sentence for child rape.

Sanford is now charged with the rape of a child, aggravated sexual battery, violation of the sex offender registry act and violation of residential and work restrictions.

He is being held on $1 million bond.

Police say Sanford admitted to raping the 5-year-old victim.

The little girl told investigators it happened while she was at a relative's house and that it was not the first time Sanford had touched her inappropriately.

In 2006 Sanford was convicted of the rape of an 11-year-old girl, one year before new sentencing guidelines went into effect requiring those convicted of child rape to serve 100% of their time.

The Shelby County Prosecutor's Office says if he is convicted this time he will be sentenced to at least 25 years in prison with no chance of parole.

The Memphis Child Advocacy Center treats rape victims as young as three and says 90% of the time victims know their abuser and 40% of the time it is someone related to them.

The center not only counsels children, but teaches parents how recognize the signs of sexual abuse and how to prevent it.

"You know if you have frequent appropriate conversations with your kids your kids will learn they can come and talk to you if something happens. If you don't have those conversations your kids won't come to you," said Beryl Wright.

Next month the Child Advocacy Center is offering two 'Stewards of Children' child sexual abuse prevention training programs for parents, and organizations that serve kids.

How many times does this need to happen around the world before it is made apparent that these people dont get better and cant be rehabilitated. What to do with them? castrate the FIRST time!

A friend of mine said that castration is a bit like taking away their ammo but letting them keep the gun.

Rape is mostly a mental crime with a physical context rather than a physical crime with mental overtones. This is why treatment is largely unsuccessful. That includes castration, either chemical or surgical.

Note that I am totally cool with castrating them. But castrating Wayne Dumond did nothing to mitigate. He murdered two more women not long after his release which was facilitated by pseudo-conservative extraordinaire, Mike Huckabee.

Personally, I think castrating Mike Huckabee would get more results.

Take their arms off too and make 'em wear a gag... or hell just shoot 'em.

Surely this is what the DP is for... these sick fucks can't be "fixed".

I find it sickening they are allowed in public, anywhere, and horrific they have the ongoing capacity to ruin children's lives.

They should be shot.

I'll donate the ammo.

A prison guard over in Arkansas was stabbed to death by an inmate sentenced to life only a few months ago. There are people who will commit acts like this no matter what. There are likewise, folks who believe you can rehabilitate them but refuse to have anything to do with them once their release.
