I'm not sure how the author of that article hoped to be taken seriously when she opened with this statement:
"Last night, Crimewatch covered the case of Lisa Hauxwell: a sex offender who could be living as a either man or a woman. On the run from a 14-year prison sentence, the offender has not been seen since being convicted of a string of rapes and sexual assaults committed between 2001-2002"
"It has become, sadly, typical to hear of appeals for information on male sex offenders - yet when the perpetrator is female, it always seems much more shocking. But why? The fact is most people know very little about female perpetrated sex crimes and what they do know is often far from accurate"
She must have realised that there are a lot of issues around this and that her focus on this person would distract from anything she has to say on female sex offenders.
The rest of the article is about female sex offenders
"There have been numerous other cases considered in UK courts in recent years of teachers, teaching assistants or other child care workers who sexually abuse the children or young people entrusted into their care. These women almost always abuse alone and usually against one victim."
But all that has been lost because of the opening paragraph.
