“Now you’ve seen my face, I have to kill you.”
A 13-year-old said those words to two women in Memorial Park before threatening them with a knife and ra**ng them. OPD caught him hiding in the park.
Less than 18 months later, Nebraska medical experts deemed him “rehabilitated,” and he was returned to Omaha. State law protects his identity, so the public won’t ever know who he is.
Then we learned he would be starting school this fall. A convicted ra**st, back in a classroom with other children and “safety measures” like, If he rides a school bus, he must sit in the first two rows. And more rehabilitation.
Because of our broken juvenile laws at the time, the judge couldn’t try him as an adult or even alert the community. The judge tried, but the system tied her hands.
And now the newest update: He’s failing a lot of his classes, showing up late, and sleeping through the day. Nothing about this shows rehabilitation. But parents still aren’t allowed to know where he attends school. You don’t get to know if he’s sitting next to your daughter. Your child.
If there’s one case that shows the danger ahead, it’s this one.
