North vigilantes post sex offender leaflet to villagers
"VIGILANTES posted details of a convicted sex offender’s whereabouts through doors in the village where he lives.
Northumbria Police have been forced to reassure residents that sex offenders in the area are closely monitored after the incident which shocked those who received the letter.
Dozens of people living in the Northumberland community were stunned when a letter landed on their doorsteps informing them a pervert was sharing their streets.
The A4 leaflet is a photocopy of correspondence sent to a witness in the case informing them the offender had been found guilty of indecent assault and sexual assault.
However, it has been doctored to include a picture of the sex attacker along with the registration of his car and his full address. The Chronicle has chosen not to name the attacker or the village where he lives."
