Mr. O'Reilly,
I applaud your recent coverage of judges who sentence child rapists to minimal or no prison time for their crimes. However, you have thus far only selected liberal judges to profile. This is in spite of the fact that I repeatedly informed you of the situation in Denton County, TX (where I reside). Denton County is currently home to nearly 70 convicted child predators who were sentenced to no jail time. Every judge in Denton County happens to be Republican.
The murder and rape of children is not a partisan issue. As an outspoken advocate for children and survivor of child pornography, I believe that nobody should use the horrific trauma of these children and families to further a partisan political agenda.
Rather than prioritize the protection of children, you have targeted a select few liberal judges. You have not informed your viewers that this deplorable dynamic of releasing child rapists is occurring all over the nation, due to the unacceptable sentences of judges from both major parties. Your coverage has thus far obfuscated the real issue behind a sordid veil of partisan rhetoric.
You are not helping kids by using this issue to divide people who should be coming together for the protection of children. And when you target judges from only one party, you appear to be cynically using the rape and murder of children for political advantage. I pray that you will search your heart, change your stance, and give this issue the broad, accurate coverage it deserves. Until you do, I'm asking every person who reads this letter to pass it on to their friends, feature it on their websites, and help spread the truth.
