Sex Offender Tries to Take Girl, 14, to Middle School Dance - Gregory Ray Brooks

It's only February and we may already have one of the finalists for "Dumbass of the Year." How could that be? Try this one: a faculty chaperone at a dance for students at Athens Middle School (Alabama) noticed that the date of one 14-year-old girl looked just a little older than the 17 years he claimed. So they stopped Gregory Ray Brooks at the door and started asking some questions. Brooks took off running to a nearby laundrymat and was later picked up by the local cops who found out that not only was he not 17 (Brooks is actually 25) he also is a REGISTERED SEX OFFENDER having been convicted in May 2004 of first-degree sodomy on an 8-year-old victim.
Apparently he met the 14-year-old through some friends recently and she did not know he was that old or had that conviction in his background.
Mr. Brooks was charged with public intoxication and failure to comply with the community notification act by loitering on school property. At right is his mug shot picture. (Fox News)
