To have missing persons cases is bad enough; however, when those missing persons are sex offenders who fail to comply with a deadline for registering as sex offenders, that is really troublesome.
More than 500 sex offenders have failed to comply with a deadline for registering with the state and now face criminal prosecution, according to the state attorney general’s office.
In December, state prosecutors announced a drive to go after convicted sex offenders who do not follow the sex offender registration requirements.
This is one time when the PC nonsense needs to be thrown out the window and the rights of the innocent need to be protected. Enough of the privacy garbage, the states need to start protecting the needs of the people and the children. After all, they have rights too. Since when do sex offenders and pedophiles have more rights than those who follow the law?
“There seems to be a concern about protecting the identity of sex offenders, but I think we need to protect our children in the community,” she said. “(The registry) is one of those tools that people can use if they have any suspicion about anyone — they can just check. They may identify someone in their neighborhood or at their school, or someone who may be coaching their child. Pedophiles don’t stand out in your community, so they are not easily identifiable.”

Kenji Ohmi has been missing for almost a week. He is a Japanese student studying English at WESLI – the Wisconsin English as a Second Language Institute.
Kenji is 20-years old, 5’0 tall, and 120 pounds. 
He lived at the WESLI dorms on North Hamilton Street near the Capitol.
That’s where Madison Police say Kenji was last seen.
Perreth says Kenji’s roommates saw him go to bed after a dorm party last Friday night.
The next morning, he says the dorm’s surveillance camera shows Kenji walking out at about 6:30 am.
Where he went is a mystery.
“He’s 20, he’s got a passport, he’s got money, he could just be somewhere, and that’s very possible,” says Perreth.

Japanese student missing in U.S.
He arrived Dec. 27 from Japan to attend Wisconsin English as a Second Language Institute in Madison, said Dan Perreth, one of the institute’s directors.
Neither his two roommates nor his other friends at the school knew where he was going, said Amy Osorio, another director at the institute, which has 100 students from 25 countries.
He was dressed in jeans and a black coat, Osorio said.

Still Looking For Missing Woman
Police found her car locked and nothing looked suspicious. As for how they found her apartment, “Everything was in order, but she left pets behind that were unattended, didn’t make any contact with friends or relatives, which is very unlike her,” Barthel says.
And police are hopeful they will find her well.
“We don’t have anything to indicate there’s foul play at this point,” Barthel says. “On the other hand, we haven’t ruled that out either.”
