Description

How do you think we should hold sex offenders accountable in our community? Does our current system truly keep our community safe?

This week, we sit down with Judy O’Brien, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Sex Offender Treatment Provider here in Houston. In this balanced conversation we discuss recent changes in predatory behaviors, the role of power and control for offenders, and the false sense of security that the sex offender registry could be providing.

Ultimately, we answer this question: Is there a better way to hold sex offender accountable and prevent victimization within our communities?

We believe that open dialogue about this sensitive topic is one of the best preventative measures, however, some may find our conversation about sex offenders to be uncomfortable, so viewer discretion is advised. We hope you will join this conversation by sending us your thoughts and questions after the show on Instagram or Twitter!
