The streak is over! A level III predatory offender has been released to a Duluth neighborhood that isn’t the West End

The Duluth Police Dept. announced on Tuesday a level III predatory offender has been released and is living on the 700 block of Boundary Avenue in Duluth’s Bayview Heights neighborhood, on the Duluth/Proctor border. It marks the end of a streak in which eight consecutive sex offenders released in Duluth chose to live in the West End neighborhood. This was over a span of exactly one year, going by the dates of DPD news releases — April 8, 2013 to April 8, 2014.

Here is the West End crew that made up the sex-offender district that has finally been broken.

Amen Wind Toomey, vicinity of 22nd Ave. W. & Third St.

The 700 block of Boundary Avenue is west of West Duluth, so it might be called "Super West Duluth."

Sexual abuse of children is sad, sad, sad.  It breaks my heart.

These sex offender registries do more harm than good.

How did the habit of sex offenders always going to that area develop? Just by virtue of some of the hotels there?

It seemed like when I lived in Central Hillside, every sex offender was released there. Now that I'm in West End / Lincoln Park, they're all moving here!

They go where the lowest rents are. Sadly, that is currently West End.

White people of means will finally deal with this issue. Go, Proctor! They will actually probably kill him and create a monument on 1'st St.

He's living in his mother's house, according to the Facebook posts of a few outraged Proctor moms.

Surely I jest, nobody needs to die until his maker decides. All you need to do with sex predators, is drop them off in the middle of Papa New Guinea, the deep Australian outback, or some equivalent place, perhaps of their choosing with 30 ounces of water, three shots of morphine, a bug net, and pocket knife, and whoever makes it out alive qualifies for an all inclusive rehabilitation program that involves exerting oneself beyond the limits of endurance combined with an all plant diet, sensory deprivation, and high doses of pure LSD for forty three days. I guarantee a 97 percent drop in repeat offense using my program. Similar to the methods in Clockwork Orange, only more emphasis on the body, the mind, and the planet.

As for you Gov Mark Dayton, not only do I applaud your abstinence, and your governorship, but your mere presence, having delivered us from your predecessor, is like a spring breeze on the Minnesota prairie. Where it concerns freedom and democracy, the right of individuals to govern themselves, I'm sure you will choose the right path.

When Baci moves to the West End, at least he won't have to worry about loud college students any more.
