So I just come here to voice an issue that has been going on in our neighborhood. There is an older man who everyone knows who rides his golf cart around and he would consider me a friend. He has been into selling and buying computers over and over. The police raided his house because there was evidence that he was communicating with young teenage girls online. Looking back I can see signs that this would be possible. Have a Denteley the police cannot charge him because he has sold all his computers always online. He did commit to what he did to someone I know down the street. He misses the days when kids would want to go on golf cart rides with him. In my mind not the law he is guilty and no one in this neighborhood will look at him the same. The other day he drove up around in his golf cart like he always did and talked to me like nothing happened. It is just my understanding of him and human nature that he will continue to cruise around in his golf cart and no one will tell him to stay in his house because no one wants to see him . I am sure he is extremely lonely and going around the golf cart and dragging people into long conversations is his favorite pastime. How should I approach this or should I have a group of people to approach him?
 
I think a priest could help here. We have a similar personality in our neighborhood. He had a reputation for accosting women until a motorcycle accident left him with a brain injury. He continues to prowl the neighborhood on a bicycle making rude suggestions to women on the street. If he waves at me, I wave. But he knows not to speak to me or enter my property
 
There may be investigations that are not public. Law enforcement can very much track things sold online, no one’s internet activity is every erased, but it can take a long time to recover this data. Assume the law is following credible information. Until then, every American is considered innocent until proven guilty.

If you or someone you know has experienced a crime committed by this man, go to the authorities.

Pray for this man, you may think about running against him in the next election, I cannot imagine someone being elected as mayor with such accusations hanging over head.

You do not have to be his best friend, but, you are duty bound as a Christian to show him charity and to respect his dignity as a human.
 
The best you can do is steer clear and if you see any suspicious behavior call the police. Saftey is the priority.
 
People are strange. Washington DC for example re-elected Marion Barry when he got out of jail
 
I don’t know what you mean by “signs that this would be possible” (and that isn’t necessarily something we need to know), but I think it’s hard to assess the situation without knowing what you actually know about this man.

False accusations do happen, and they can completely destroy someone’s life. (https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2013/apr/06/accused-of-child-abuse-police) Friends and neighbors jumping in and making judgments before the law has actually substantiated charges make that drastically worse.

Certainly, if you know something that law enforcement doesn’t that supports his guilt, you should bring that to the police.
Otherwise… You’re certainly by no means obligated to make conversation with him. You can take safety precautions if you have young children you’d prefer not to leave alone with him. You can vote against him in the next election cycle.
But telling him that absolutely no one wants to see him and he should just stay home all the time without substantiated evidence for his guilt seems excessive to me at this point.
 
Is the word mayor in quotes because he is not an actual elected mayor?

Is it possible he just feels lonely and wants someone to talk too…
Is it possible the neighborhood is jumping to conclusions is it possible this admission of guilt to some guy down the street didn’t actually happen ( I know guys talk alot of crap)

There is an old guy down here he looks homeless but is now living in the rest home down the road ( he moved there the year before last he used to live just around the corner)
He used to creep me out as he was always standing on the corner always waved when I walked past( that’s all he did was stand there and wave). One day I decided to mention it to my hubby, turns out this old guy used to be a security guard on community patrol and the area we live used to be the area he was in charge of patrolling unfortunately he was assaulted one night and ended up with a brain injury ( which would explain his unkempt state even though he’s never been homeless)
He still thinks 30 years on hes doing his job hes still patrolling our street it’s all he ever new and all he actually understands
Just beacuse we think someone is creepy it doesn’t mean they actually are in fact I do from time to time when I’m out and it’s wet ask him if he needs a ride home. Hes always turned my offer of a ride home down, he also turns down a coffee and lunch on our wedding day ( he was patrolling the area across the road so we asked him if he would like to come over for lunch and cake).
 
In the above post would you suggest the kids in the neighborhood continue to go on rides in his golf cart?
 
Children going for rides in his golf cart is actually up to the parents of the kids hes taking for rides I wouldn’t allow my children to go for a ride in his golf cart as I don’t know the guy and I don’t Think we are getting the full story. I must mention that as Catholics we are not supposed to judge, we are not supposed to be throwing stones, we are supposed to forgive and give second chances
 
When I say Mayor he was the guy everyone knew, he got to know all the details of what’s going on in the neighborhood etc. he was on the HOA board but I think that is over.
 
Sorry, the admission was he was confronted by a a close friend who was a woman. They worked on things together. I trust the source and she was inconsolable. He said he made a mistake. However, he is into going into eBay and buying and selling laptops like a madman.
 
Yes, I understand where you are coming from. Now OJ is innocent. Now that I know and the whole neighborhood knows no one will let a kid take a ride. He was told everyone knows but he is still driving around, albeit not as much
 
How does him buying and selling laptops on eBay have anything to do with it mabye he does it for extra money. It does not necessarily sound as though he does it just to hide evidence beacuse the police will be able to track the new owners of the computers and check the computers out

Marion Barry was not accused of hitting on underage girls.

Marion Barry was African-American and there was a good argument that he was set up/ entrapped by law enforcement into using drugs on camera, as evidenced by a video that was shown to the public on television at the time.

Marion Barry had employed a huge number of local DC residents through patronage jobs and was very popular with a lot of lower-income African-American people; he also had a strong track record as a politician before he unfortunately got a little too into partying and his own ego, as many politicians of all races have done.

The mayor who served after Marion Barry was so incredibly incompetent at the job, it was a relief having Barry back in office. I speak from experience as I was living near (fortunately not in) DC through that entire era.

The person being discussed in this thread is also not an elected “mayor”, just some older person who knows everybody in the neighborhood and was maybe on a board a long time ago.

In short: Marion Barry is not at all on point to this situation.

That was explained well.

It also seems that there is no evidence of this man being “into younger girls” aside from saying he misses the times past when kids would ride on his golf cart. It is a pretty far stretch from giving golf cart rides to abuse.
 
I understand that this man can make people feel creepy. I also see no solid evidence that he’s 'into younger girls.

This has become the norm. Everyone who is ‘different’ and has no known sex partner ‘must’ be a child abuser. While I can understand not wanting one’s child to be alone with him, assuming he’s sexually abusing children is a bit of a stretch. It started nobly enough…people had been letting others get away with abusing children for far too long…child molestation is now well on it’s way to becoming the first punishable ‘thoughtcrime’ in the U.S.

If you think this may be true, there is a sex offender list, available online for anyone who wants to access it. It list those who have been convicted for sex crimes, and are considered very likely to reoffend. For those found guilty, but found unlikely to reoffend, I believe there is a list having something to do with ‘Amber Alerts’.

This is a very controversial situation. For the man in question, I would advise not letting your child take a ride with him, unless you know him well, and/or, he never takes the child outside your field of vision. And, never force the child to go against his/her will!

Another thought…concerning the rapidly discarded or recycled computers…you should ask the local police if anything potentially illegal was found on them. And act accordingly!
