Female Sex Predator Heads to Men's Center

GIG HARBOR, Wash. - For the past six years, convicted child rapist Laura Faye McCollum has lived a lonely existence inside the state's women's prison. On Monday, she is scheduled to move to the new Special Commitment Center on McNeil Island to live among 190 other dangerous sex offenders — all of them men.

McCollum is worried about attending therapy sessions with the men, and many experts say treating offenders of both genders together could be harmful.

"Would you want to sit in a bunch of men who talk about what they did to women and how they'd like to do that to women again?" McCollum told The Associated Press in a three-hour interview from her housing unit at the women's center. "I don't want them bringing their issues on me."

McCollum was convicted in 1990 of repeatedly raping an 18-month-old girl and trying to suffocate her with a pillow. She has admitted to sexually assaulting 15 children — mostly girls between the ages of 2 and 3.

She can't get treatment she needs in a female prison? Or they don't want to pay the cost for one woman.

Sounds more like the latter than the former...

After reading this, I have a hard time caring what happens to her.

I wonder if she's even treatable.

Co-sign! I was reading about this in the Seattle Times. I have no sympathy for the heffa!

They're violent sex offenders so screw 'em.

(no pun intended)

Whatever means of incarceration is cheapest -- that's what we should go with. Lock 'em up and throw away the key. I'm even in favor of that chemical castration stuff.

I don't think that will work in her case.

As if SHE doesn't have issues?! Puhlease....and besides, her crimes were committed against females. Perhaps she'd be better treated among people w/ similar crimes (assuming that the men in this prison predominantly committed their assaults on females).
