Well these kinds of pedophiles, they dont change their ways and he didnt change his ways in West Virginia. He continued to prey on kids. Eventually he raped and then murdered a 12yearold boy named jeremy bell. Well justice eventually caught up with the killer and hes now serving a life sentence for that murder. But for little jeremy bell, that justice came too late and sadly, jeremy bell is not alone. Last year, mr. President we had 459 School Employees across america arrested for Sexual Misconduct with the very children theyre supposed to be protecting and teaching and caring for. Thats more than one per day. And those are just the ones where there was enough evidence to actually prosecute to make an arrest and to pursue charges. How many others are getting away with this .

Misdemeanors and those convicted of three or more misdemeanors. So heres my ask. We want to work with you to restore this relationship. Weve replaced secure communities with a new program for the benefit of Public Safety. But i need a partner. In those in this room, in governors and mayors county commissions, and so forth. Weve done our part to end the controversial secure communities program. Now i ask that you and others get with your city attorney, your city council, your police commissioner, your chief get a hold of the policy document that i issued in november to see how weve replaced the secure communities program. For the benefit of all of toes we serve. And if youre one of those 177 jurisdictions, you will get a knock on the door from me. Because we want to work with you to rebuild this relationship.
