Pedophile Sentenced To Do Community Service In Kindergarten

A convicted German pedophile identified only as A.B. has been sentenced to do community service in a kindergarten named the Evangelical Kindergarten St Petri in Melle.
A.B. will return to court next week to face charges of abusing two children there.
The man was allowed to work as a janitor at the Evangelical Kindergarten because a court worker missed three prior pedophilia convictions on his record.
The pedophile had been sentenced to 720 hours of community service earlier this year for working on the sly while collecting welfare payments.
Alexander Retemeyer, spokesman for the Osnabrueck prosecutor’s office said:
“The colleague didn’t pay attention and didn’t see he had a sexual conviction, so she allowed him to serve in a kindergarten,” “She didn’t read the file.”
Police arrested the man in April after the head of the kindergarten reported he had caress himself in front of two children.
