What is the percentage of repeat homicide offenders in the United States?
107530
To do this search on either Yahoo! Search or Google, you should search "homicide" and "recidivism."  Presumably, that will yield results that you should find very helpful.  Should not, change "homicide" to "murder."  Best of luck to you.

No. Around here a big deal crime is drunk driving or petty vandalism. Around the nearest big city it is drive-by gang shootings setting new highs in the murder rate.

The Myths and Truths about sexual offenders---The Myth::We can relax a bit now that we have sex offender registration.….The Truth Despite Megan's Law, the overall number of sex offenses occurring have actually increased, the websites can only do so much; we need GPS and lifetime probation to control this population. Currently we are failing to control them    The Myth::Some Sex Offenders are not violent.….The Truth Non “Violent” Crimes such as molestation are just as traumatizing, and calling them “non-violent” is not in any way accurate.    The Myth::Most sex offenders don’t have a lot of victims …The Truth Although 75% of sexual offenders were convicted of one offense, that just means they were only caught once, almost 100% of them have multiple victims. Many have been found to have hundreds when they were polygraphed on this question.  The Myth::Most Sex Offenders were at one time abused as a child themselves, that’s why they do it.…The Truth Most "sex offenders" has never been sexually abused. In fact, offenders say this to appear less culpable for their crimes. When they are polygraph on this question their rates of being molested go way, way down, their rates are in fact close to the rest of us who are not molesting The Myth: :Sex.Offenders get serious punishment, and we don’t have to worry about them for years….The Truth They get revolving door sentences, if they even go to jail, and the vast majority do not, Offenders usually get probation, and even then sex offenders do not get   GPS and lifetime probation(as they need to). Offenders quickly get back to a normal life while victims have lifetime consequences.The Myth::Sex Offenders are very controlled on probation or parole and cannot look for more victims. The Truth Offenders without GPS are on part time supervision, they are “good” while in the Probation officers eyesight for the weekly office visit. Offenders  have all week to create more victims. Lifetime supervision with GPS would put society in charge. Currently offenders run the show, and this means more victims. The Myth:: Sex Offenders will grow old and out of this behavior.The Truth There is no “aging out” of offending. An offender has these desires and intentions for life. If they change it is to prevent being caught again. The Myth::Sex Offenders are all on the registry ….The Truth Sadly it’s very narrow and limited as to what crimes can be registered. Many offenders are given plea deals for non registerable crimes even though their actual behaviors were sexual offences. Laws must be changed so these “endangering the welfare of a minor” and other charges are registerable   The Myth::Offenders friends and family support their recovery …..The Truth In realty the offender’s friends and family have denial regarding the offender’s full responsibility for his offense (they like to blame victims, police, DA ect).  Offenders friends and family usually minimize the crime (he only touched her breast), and offenders friends and family often belittle rather than support the goals of supervision and treatment. Overall friends and family help the disorder rather than the offender who has it. Almost all of the time friends and family are working against the good of the community, although they may not know this.  The Myth::The community is the main concern during the supervision process ….The Truth Actually, the current situation is budgets and offender rights are more important than community safety. The Myth::Offenders have to register immediately with local law enforcement. …..The Truth Sex offenders are often given up to 10 days to register upon moving in, or being employed within a state. Some states don’t require sex offenders visiting their state to register. Most states do not require sex offenders to register in advance of a move, they can move in and then inform. Getting a violation on a manipulative offender trying to beat the system is far too d

Capital Murder or First Degree Murder but depends on the state in the U.S.

That will depend on which State you are referring to, each State has its own classification for crimes as well as the recommended time for each classification.  check your local statutes on line or at your local library.  You could be more specific and I could answer a bit more specific

I am not sure if you want the actual laws or how often the crimes occur.\n\nI am guessing you wanted the laws and misspelled the word statute, even though the previous poster thought you wanted statistics.\n\nThe site below will give you the Texas homicide laws. I do not have the Louisiana laws, but you probably already have those.

Here are a couple of good Yahoo Groups:\n\nAAOR -  http://groups.yahoo.com/group/AAOR/\n\nRoar4Freedom - http://groups.yahoo.com/group/roar_4_freedom/\n\nHere you will meet many former offenders who have lived for years offense free.\n\nYou can also look up the statistics at the US Department of Justice which show that most Sex Crime Arrests (over 90%) are first time arrests not repeat offenders.

I guess they consider the percentage of crime committed to see who is committing the most crime. Police departments all over the united states send in crime statistics to the FBI and they come out with a report of who is doing what type of crime, and what crimes are being done.

What book are you referring to?  Have you heard of California's "3-strikes" law? It's when a felon who's been convicted of 2 felonies is arrested and convicted for a 3rd felony. That felon is then sentenced to life in prison for being a repeat felony offender. Sound harsh? Read up on it more in your search engine, under "3-strikes law". \nPretty intersting stuff, and there's discussions on both sides of the topic.

In the United States, one in 3 women will be raped in her lifetime, many as teenagers.  http://www.coolnurse.com/today_at_cn.htm\nAccording to the US Dept. of Justice:\nsomeone in America is raped every 2 minutes. \n2/3 of rape victims are under the age of 18. \n29% of female victims reported that they were attacked by a stranger, which means that about 70% of female victims knew their attacker. \nWomen annually report about 500,000 rapes.  http://www.teenhealthfx.com/answers/Emotional/4127.html

Depends on the state in which the crime is committed.  Edit your question and add info.

Think of people that work IN prisons, in the armed forces, security, in law enforcement, etc. I'm less worried about people who are known to have killed than I am about the serial murderers who are still uncaught....you know, the quiet ones who are "the people next door"\n\nOK, I watch a LOT of Law & Order and CSI!

I'm assuming this is for the US?  If so, the best thing to do is to search the FBI's crime index.  The FBI's crime index compiles the statics of police departments around the nation, and has many variable stats available.  http://www.fbi.gov/ucr/ucr.htm\n\nGood luck, and I hope you find what you're looking for.

Interesting.  We don't register drug offenders, or drunk drivers, and jail times for each are far less, yet each kill and harm far more children than sex offenders. And there are many many more of each.  And yet...where is the press?  SEX of course.\n\nAddicts and alcoholics will be first to tell you they will ALWAYS be alcoholics or addicts.  Professionals who treat sex offenders will tell you that only 15% of offenders will ever reoffend...and that those MOST LIKELY to reoffend are pedophile homosexuals.  Our society, to the laughter and frankly, embarassment of the rest of the world, is OBSESSED with sex.  Sex offenders have become the "Witch Burnings" of our time.
