Hit The Road, Jack
Admitted pedophile Jack McClellan says he's leaving California:
"I have to leave the state, really, I can't live here under this Orwellian protocol," Jack McClellan told KABC. "It's nightmarish."
You know, if he were complaining about the old restraining order against him, he would have a point. It's not easy to stay 30 feet away from all children at all times -- doing so would preclude some of life's crucial activities, like buying food.
But what McClellan's complaining about here is a new restraining order that's much less severe. It just bars him from hanging out in places where kids congregate, like schools and playgrounds. That he finds this restriction "nightmarish," sadly, tells us a lot about his condition.
We'll see if he really does depart, but if so, I can't say I'll be sad to see him go. Still, I wish we could do more to help the man than simply chase him from state to state.
