Sometimes their victimization choice is a result of opportunity more than a habitual preference; however, many types of victimization occur and makeup many very different t types of deviants. .
When a pedophile is found guilty, the average sentence is three year in a case by case basis. However, the majority of these convicts will be released early on society having served a fraction of the original sentence due to state budget cuts.
