Yeah, I'm sure the statistical ten percent recidivism rate is a comfort to people living in St. Paul with their new sex offender neighbors. I wonder how many sex offenders Beth Tietz has as neighbors?Some St. Paul residents are outraged to hear eight level 3 sex offenders are moving to the city, but police hope residents are more aware than fearful.
A community meeting was held Tuesday because the six offenders have level 3 offender status, which means they have the highest risk of reoffending. The men have all completed their sentences.

The eight offenders will live just blocks from Jackson Magnet Elementary school where nearly 400 students are enrolled. Even after school hours, it is not uncommon to find children at the school on the playground.
“In the city, you really can’t throw a stone without hitting a park, a daycare, a school,” said Beth Tietz, of Ramsey County Community Corrections. “It does happen.”
Of the offenders, some are off supervision, some are on probation and the rest are on intensive supervised release.
“Intensive supervised release is like parole on steroids,” said Tietz. “That’s the best way to describe it. Four of the eight are on intensive supervised release.”
While level 3 offenders have the highest risk of reoffending, corrections reps say 90 percent don't.
St. Paul Mayor Melbin Carter, the third doesn't care about any of this. He's advocating for reductions in the number of St. Paul police officers.
WCCO 4 CBS: St. Paul Police want more officers. Mayor wants less.
There have been more than 100 shootings in St. Paul this year.St. Paul's mayor and its idiot city council can't even manage to oversee something as simple as trash and garbage collection. They can't possibly be expected to tackle issues like crime and sex offenders.
The city council will look at police staffing levels Wednesday. Mayor Melvin Carter wants to reduce the number of officers at a time when the police chief says 911 calls have never been higher.

Mayor Melvin Carter proposed cutting the police department’s total number officers by five, at a time when shootings are on the rise and 911 calls are getting late responses.
Thomas Jefferson said, "The government you elect is the government you deserve."
Residents of St. Paul, you have the government that you elected. Keep putting DEMS in office. You like paying higher property taxes, having sex offenders living near elementary schools, garbage collection that's a joke, bullets flying through your neighborhoods, higher incidents of crime and a mayor that wants less police officers.
Congratulations St. Paul. You're officially a shithole city. Just like Minneapolis. And that's always been the competition between the two cities; St. Paul wanting to be more like Minneapolis. Parity achieved.
