    A registered sex offender running for mayor of his small town says he hopes voters can overlook his 2004 arrest in which he was caught in a police sting trying to arrange sex with a 15-year-old girl on the Internet.

    I suspect a large percentage of these arrests are phony. I investigated sex crimes for 30 years and at least half of them are phony. The real world is not like CSI.

    That may be, but this guy admits what he did. I believe in second chances, but I wouldn't want this guy as mayor. :eek:

    It would be an embarrassment.

    Sex offenders have restrictions on where they can live and where they can go.
    A Mayor or anyone with restrictions wouldn't make a good leader.

    Sliter and anyone like him should have to register for life.

    He probably made a deal to avoid prosecution.

    He might make a great mayor ... but I'd keep my daughters away form him.
