My OH is coming out of prison soon after serving six months. He was charged with communication with a minor but was a adult posing as a minor.

He had never been in trouble with the police prior, never met this person or asked to meet them and had no pictures of minors on his phone.

Once realeased, he will be on the SOR for 10 years (apparently this is standard) and parole will be involved.

As much as I hope we can now get on with our lives, is this really possible?

I/We just want to get on with our lives but I live in fear it will be back on social media about his release, put on the public SO database and we may experience abuse in the street? I'm very nervous

Wondered if anyone had any advice

My husband is getting out soon too and I have many of the same worries you do. I believe life will be different but it can still be good. I am going to prepare for being confronted in public. As in if this happens...this is what I will say or do. Otherwise I plan to live a full and rewarding life. Yes, my husband committed a crime, but now we are both dedicated to reducing child abuse. That is how I will hold my head up high.

Hope you don't mind me asking but have you suffered any abuse in public? I am just at the point where I am exhausted with it all. I also believe my OH has ADHD and it's something we want to look into being assessed for when he comes out.
I just keep going backwards and forwards with it all and wondering if this is going to finally be the end of it all and move forward or is it the start of all the hassle again

Hello, no I haven't received any abuse in public. When our friends found out about my husband's offense, most of them decided they could not be associated with either of us anymore. I sometimes run into them out in public. I'll get a quick hello but we don't stop and chat. I haven't done anything wrong, and I haven't run into anyone while out with my husband so that's what I'm more worried about. I have kept a few friends that are gold and made some new ones in similar situations.

How did your friends react? Have you been able to keep a social life at all?
