There's another new perv in town.

The news stations are all abuzz talking about the new child molester let loose in our city. Joe Todd Reed enjoys showing his pee pee to little girls. He was convicted of LEWD OR LASCIVIOUS ACTS WITH CHILD UNDER 14 YEARS back in July and was released in September. That didn’t take long. Apparently he failed to register his new location so now the authorities are looking for him.

Listening to all this stuff in the news made me remember a run in I had with perv when I was a little girl. I think I was in the 6th grade, so I was probably around 12 years old. My best friend and I were nearing the end of our second annual Walk-a-Thon. (I don’t know why, but we actually did those things for fun back then.) The final destination was Patriot's Park and we decided to cheat a little and cut across the West High campus. As we walked through the parking lot next to DeMello Hall a man on a bicycle rode up and blocked our path. He wanted directions somewhere but we were not able to help. He kept pressing and asking questions and I remember thinking ‘What’s with this guy? Why doesn’t he ask a grown up?’ Just then I glanced down and saw a very gross looking purple, veiny thing hanging out of his shorts. I had never seen one before and at first I was confused. Then in a flash I realized what was going on and I was scared. The thing I remember most was the look on the creep’s face when I looked back at him. He was smiling and I could tell he was enjoying the fact that he scared me. That made me mad. I don’t remember what I said, but I gave him my ugliest hateful look, grabbed my friend and stormed off.

It never even crossed my mind to tell someone what had happened.
