Take a good long look at what 53-year-old Glen Edward Sutton used to look like.
Right now, compared to that picture, he’s a little paler, a little bloodier, and has a hole in his head.
Glen Sutton, a level-3 sex offender who lived in Bennet, Nebraska, was working at Kabredlos, a convenience store on the northwest side of Lincoln.
On Saturday, the sixth of October, 2007, at about two in the afternoon, Glen Sutton let his sexual urges take control and, while he was supposed to be working, molested a 10-year-old boy who had come into the store.
The boy reported the incident to his mother as soon as he got home. His mother, in turn, contacted the police, who opened an investigation.
A Lincoln police officer went to the store at about 10 in the evening to pick up the surveillance tape for the investigation. Because the police officer was a former state correctional officer, he recognized Glen Sutton from the prison and talked to him for a bit.
After a while, the officer told Glen Sutton that he needed to pick up the surveilance tape that showed the day’s activity for the store. Glen went to the back, got the tape, came back and gave it to the officer, who went outside and called the detective in charge of the investigation.
As the officer was outside, Glen Sutton went into the back room, grabbed a gun and shot himself.
Glen Sutton hadn’t been notified that he was under investigation for anything.
But he knew what he did. He knew it was wrong.
There’s really only one thing that I can think of that Nebraska (and the world) would want to thank Glen Edward Sutton for.
He saved us all some trouble.
No expensive trial, no long investigation that traumatizes the boy victim. No long-term feeding costs and medical care costs for a non-rehabilitated, aging sexual offender who doesn’t care to change.
Now if he had only felt the same impulse before he decided to molest the boy…but then this wouldn’t be much of a blog now, would it?

As a pedophile I can’t believe this, why does everyone think that we cant change. I made my choice to get help and have no more victims so we can change give us some credit and a chance. If we change our thoughts and the situations that got us there then I believe that I can change and do not need to create more victims. Think about it if an alcoholic who killed people while driving can change by not going to bars or the liquor store, why cant I? Same no thoughts for others and creates devitating effects on the victims, their family and friends (trust me it happend to me, dead friend because of a drunk) he got 15 years revocation and 30 days jail for his 6th offence were is the justice in that? Anyway if he can change and not drink because of the consiquences why cant I change

Lee the pedophile: while it is truly interesting to see another point of view, I have to interject this: an alcoholic can be an alcoholic without having “victims”, but, a pedophile cannot be a pedophile without hurting a child. Pedophilia, and I am not a psychologist, would seem to be less about sex and more about power, rape usually is. I truly hope that you can control yourself, but if and when you fail you will have damaged another child. I really don’t think that you or your loved ones matter more than the victim.

I’m fairly sure that pedophilia is more about sex and less about control, although the pedophile’s targets usually cannot defend themselves against the pedophile’s extensive arsenal of manipulations.
Alcoholics can’t change. Once someone’s body gets that craving for alcohol, they’ll have it for the rest of their life. Fortunately, an alcoholic can go about their business and change very little about their lives with the exception of the presence of alcohol.
Pedophiles can’t change. Pedophiles, unless the chemical receptors in the brain that govern arousal are either shut down or changed somehow, will always be turned on by children. Unfortunately, pedophiles can’t go about their business and change very little about their lives, because the source of their temptation is everywhere. Everywhere they turn, they see temptation running around wearing Dora the Explorer t-shirts and eating cookies. Some pedophiles rationalize their desires by saying the children like sexual behavior, other pedophiles just don’t care.
Either way, pedophiles are predatory in a manner that alcoholics are not, and that is what makes the vast majority of society hate them so.
