If that's hard to believe, reading what Stephen Boone has to say may be even harder.
Now living in Winnipeg, he's been convicted three times for sexually assaulting children, some as young as eight years old.
Boone insists it's the children who want to have sex with him.
"Children would like to be sexual if they were allowed to," he says. "They're just politically repressed, repressed to the point where it actually kills them, to the point where it's almost fanatical. It's like a religion. You're not allowed to say it could be possible that some children like sex and would have sex if they could."
He doesn't see children as victims. "Because they tend to be open. Children seem to be so amazingly open to that experience. That is what causes the problems for me. People see children who take an interest in me as unnatural and suspicious."
If Boone is convicted a fourth time, he could be declared a Dangerous Offender and put in jail indefinitely.
What the hell is wrong with the justice system?? This guy is allowed to get away with these acts three times and has been released after each one? But if he gets caught a fourth time he
MAY be declared a dangerous offender. This should have happened the first time. Self admittedly he sees nothing wrong with having sexual content with children and has refused to partake in counselling. The fucks that have allowed this POS to be released to reoffend need to be severely censured as well, as they are part of the problem too. If one of their cases reoffends then they should worry about consequences they may face as a result of their actions.

One of the tasks at the Toronto Police Child Exploitation Section is checking up on people convicted, or charged, with offences against children to make sure they stick to their conditions of release.
It should be routine, but it often turns out to be an exercise in frustration. In many cases, conditions of release or bail are changed by the courts, but the police aren't told.
"This is ridiculous," says Detective Constable Stefan Mueller. We have to have a say in the bail variations. There's got to be a hearing."
You're not supposed to be out walking around and going around and do whatever you want, but that's what it's come down to," Says Detective Ian Lamond.
"They know that we don't have the resources to go check them every day," says Detective Constable Paul Krawczyk. "So they know the chances of getting caught are slim to none."
Just keeping track of pedophiles is hard enough. Getting them locked up in the first place is even tougher.
"I can simply say I'm way past frustrated," says Detective Sergeant Paul Gillespie. "The fact that child abuse itself is not dealt with properly. These are children that are destroyed. Their souls are destroyed. They'll never live up to their full potential. Their lives are wrecked. And that someone might do this out of pleasure and go to jail for one or two years or one or two months, I don't understand it."
If the police are lacking the resources, then perhaps these creatures can be monitored by members of the public. I for one would be quite happy to 'check up' on these individuals, if the police would give their names and addresses. Recidivism would cease to be a concern for the populace and law enforcement in general.
