The Issue

Before May 15th, we need the District Attorney's office to ask the Georgia Board of Pardons and Parole to ban sex offender, Bobby Buckner, from entering Chatham County ever again.

One of Buckner's surviving victims, who was only 13 years old at the time, recently said in an interview that she thinks "he'll do it again." Buckner also is about to get out of prison without spending one day for Ashleigh Moore's 2003 murder. 39% of some rapists, like Buckner, remain at risk to re-offend for as long as 25 years after their discharge as cited in a U.S. Dept. of Justice report

No 13-year-old child, or any resident of Chatham County, should have to live with this day-to-day fear. Send a clear message to the D.A.'s office: "Stop this sex criminal from re-entering and attacking anyone else in our community!"
