James Andrew Freeman

James A. Freeman AKA Jim Freeman AKA Mystic AKA Mystikal AKA Mystikwarrior AKA orolan is a registered sex offender and RSO activist. In 1997, at the age of 37, Jim was convicted on charges related to the sexual abuse of a child under the age of 16. Part of his sentence required Jim to register as a sex offender after his release from prison. Disgruntled with the newly imposed requirements of his registration, Freeman, along with fellow sex offender Tom Madison, helped to co-found SOhopeful, an advocacy group for sex offenders. In fact, until very recently, Jim served in the capacity of Executive Director for SOhopeful in addition to functioning in the capacity of the groups Legal Director.

Jim served countless hours with this organization whose primary objective is to abolish the laws and restrictions to which sex offenders are subjected. Through SOhopeful, which currently has chapters in all 50 US States as well as members in Canada and the United Kingdom, Jim espoused that the requirements placed upon sex offenders are "unconstitutional," "unnecessary," and place an "unfair burden" onto offenders and their families. Yes, that's right..."an unfair burden on sex offenders!" Jim seems to enjoy presenting himself, and fellow registered sex offenders, as "victims."

The mention that Jim served as Executive Director of SOhopeful International until recently is for good reason. As part of an international sting, Jim Freeman has been arrested by the FBI and indicted by federal grand jury on multiple charges, including: engaging in a child exploitation enterprise, conspiracy, advertisement of child pornography, transportation of child pornography, receipt of child pornography, and obstruction of justice. The U.S. Attorney’s Office will be prosecuting the case.

Prosecutors allege Freeman, and at least 11 United States citizens, used large file-sharing networks to share child pornography over the Internet and installed "sophisticated encryption methods" to avoid detection. Over the course of a two-year investigation, the group exchanged over 400,000 images of children, including toddlers, being drugged, raped, and molested. Jim Freeman, co-founder and Executive Director of SOhopeful, a man who repeatedly lobbied for less restrictive sex offender laws, on the premise that sex offenders don't pose an "imminent danger" to society because they have the "lower recidivism rates than any other crime" was indicted on MULTIPLE counts of child pornography.

As attention grabbing as they are, these charges don't really come as that much of a surprise. There are a lot of people out there who would beg to differ on just how much on an "imminent danger" Jim and his sex offender cohorts present. Despite what groups like SOhopeful, SOclear, SOSEN, and Roar for Freedom would have you believe, the laws and restrictions sex offenders are obligated to live by are in place for good reason. Pedophiles, especially, have quite poor rehabilitation rates, as evidenced by Jim's recent re-arrest and federal indictment.

Quotes

My thanks to you and all the others that together make this the greatest group of pedos ever to gather in one place...I am honored just to be a part of it.

-James Freeman, indicted child pornographer

Rather than allow the offender to remain if the daycare is opened later, the law should mandate that daycares(or any other named place) can not be opened or built within 2,500 feet of the known residence of a sex offender. Doing so would be punishable by a mandatory 30 years in prison.

-James Freeman, RSO activist

We agree that victimization of any kind and especially of a sexual nature is intolerable. We believe in the sanctity of human rights and the need for treatment and restoration must balance against justice and appropriate deterrence.

-James Freeman, Executive Director SOhopeful International

Additional Quotes

Libraries are NOT for children. They're for everybody. If the library wants to hold Children's Story Hour in the same room at the same time as the 'Feng Shui and Your Love Life' class I suggest you see to it the librarian is fired. Likewise if the little ones are going to join in on discussing the nuances of 'Catcher in the Rye'.

I'm not much on three-strikes laws, but I think that when a person gets up into double-digit offenses, it's time to lock them up forever.

I'm all for preventing predators from hanging out at places like these for no reason.....but....some predators are not the monsters many of you perceive them to be. Granted most are. But not all. Some predators have families. Spouses and children.

The City Attorney should revisit this ordinance with the above in mind and amend it to allow predators at these places if they have an actual reason to be there and are with their own child.

...very few registered offenders have been clinically diagnosed as pedophiles. As a 'class', sexual offenders have the second-lowest recidivism rate of all criminal offenses. Only murder has a lower rate.
