How well do you know your babysitter?

HELENA, Montana (AP) -- A registered sex offender was arrested for allegedly soliciting baby-sitting jobs through fliers and classified advertisements, police said.
 
Kenneth Lee Hall was arrested Wednesday and jailed for violating the terms of his sex-offender therapy, a condition of his probation. Hall, 41, was convicted in May 1999 of sexual assault.
 
A merchant became suspicious when he read a flier Hall dropped off at his business, offering to provide overnight baby-sitting for children ages 2 to 4, said Detective Bryan Fischer. The flier said Hall would like to be a "big brother" for a handicapped girl between the ages of 2 and 4, and offered a place to stay for a homeless girl up to the age of 8.
 
The business manager found Hall's photograph and criminal history on a sex offender Web site and called 911.
 
Fischer said Hall placed a classified advertisement in a weekly newspaper in late March, offering to baby-sit young children.
 
Police are investigating whether anyone responded to the offers.

For that matter, how well do you know your neighbors?  Make sure you check online, most states have registered sex offenders listed where you can see who they are and what they look like.  Most states do not actively advertise to neighbors when a sex offender moves into your community, they require that you go look the information up.

Go figure, when I'm with my daughter and the three children, girls 13 and 7, and a boy 11, I am a nervous wreck watching everyone who gets near them!  By the time I get home, I'm totally worn out!
