It seems to me that parole exists in order to deal with that very problem.
If pedos, or any other kind of felony offenders, re-offend at a high rate,
that suggests either that parole officers aren't doing their job, or that
the jurisdiction involved needs to assign more police to be parole officers,
even if it means hiring more police at the expense of other budget items.
