With the release of sex offender Morgan Earl Smith today , many are concerned at the prospect he will re-offend given that he was supposed to be released in May, but was deemed unfit.
Shelley O’Neil, an activist who wants to see a Sex Offender Registry created in the Province, says it baffles her.
Smith pled guilty in 2002 to sexual assault on a 6 and 7 year old girl. While sex offenders have always been released in Saint John the new policy of informing the community about it has resulted in increased controversy on the issue.
