I refer to your article (Oxford Mail July 1 Sex offender took pal’s car.

It said a convicted paedophile with more than 140 offences to his name has been jailed for two years after befriending an Oxfordshire family and stealing their car.

This paedophile has 140 offences to his name.

Were these people aware of his convictions? Were their children, if they had any, at risk? Why has he not been incarcerated indefinitely?

Forget the human rights of paedophiles. They give up their rights once they sexually abuse the pure and innocent children that they prey on to satisfy their unnatural desires.

No-one can protect or defend this type of organism unless they are pond life themselves. If that makes me no better than an animal so be it, but I would press any button, pull any trigger or throw any switch to get rid of the likes of these people John J Monaghan, Cotman Close, Abingdon
