Texas Child Predator Act of 2007

THEIR VOICE has a call out to every mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, aunt, and uncle. Will you join hands with us to strengthen child predator laws by supporting the Texas Child Predator Act of 2007?

Sexual assault is the most serious harm that a child can experience (1 in 3 girls and 1 in 5 boys). A quarter of a million children are sexually assaulted every year in Texas (National Crime Victims Research and Treatment, 2000). In 2003, there were only 45,000 sex offenders on the Texas Department of Public Safetys Database.

The Council on Sex Offender Treatment estimates that only 20\% of these crimes are ever reported. Much research has been done as to why victims stay quiet. The best answer is simply because they are children. They do not know what else to do. The trauma of the crime and the ability of a pedophile to scare victims into silence causes a multitude of destructive behaviors on the part of the victim as he/she deals with the pain alone.

Rhonda Kuykendall, Executive Director of Their Voice Speaking for Victims of Child Sex Assault writes, Children who are sexually abused will show no outward signs no black eyes or bruised cheeks. For the victim, their signs are fear, mistrust, aggression, prostitution and drug addiction and with every misdeed that they commit it only reaffirms their belief that they were to blame from the very beginning. Someone who is able must be their voice.

On average one pedophile assaults over 100 victims. If we keep one pedophile in prison, we will save over 100 victims.

The Texas Child Predator Act of 2007 will:

1.Establish Life without parole eligibility for repeat child sex offenders as outlined in HB1761 79th Regular Session.


2.Abolish the statute of limitations on child sexual assaults as outlined in HB838 79th Regular Session.


3.Designate Failure to comply with sex offender registry requirements as a first degree felony.

Please be THEIR VOICE in the Texas 80th Legislative Session in 2007!
Thank you in advance for your support. We must not wait for more child victims before strengthening our laws!
