A judge's order to house convicted sexual predator Calvin Grassmier in the Antelope Valley community of Littlerock has prompted outrage from residents.

Upon his release from lockup, a judge was considering moving him to La Crescenta, but residents teamed with political leaders opposed to that decision, and a judge made an about face. Now, Grassmier is headed for the small-bedroom high desert community of Sun Village. Misty says people are already terrified -- and Grassmier isn't even out here yet.

Residents in the community were fuming when the courts temporarily placed violent sexual predator Christopher Hubbart, better known as the "Pillowcase Rapist," in their small community several years ago. Los Angeles County Supervisor Kathryn Barger said she was outraged that yet another violent sexual predator is getting placed in the community despite residents' concerns.
Barger said residents have been historically disenfranchised, and this placement is just one more example of safety concerns that they've raised not being taken into consideration.

She said she and the community are tired of the Antelope Valley being used as a "dumping ground."


Of course the judge will listen to a wealthy, politically connected town over a poor and disenfranchised area of the desert. Why should residents be concerned, there is much less of a law enforcement presence and the homes are much father apart. I hope he is ready to deal with the residents, when the Pillowcase Rapist was released out here the locals set up 24/7 cameras to watch him, had people sitting out across the street and an app that notified locals when he had left the house. If they are going to insist on treating this area like a dumping ground then sex offenders lives will be made miserable.

1. La Crescenta is too pricey a community to get a sexual predator.

2. Oh this is hysteria.

He will be on parole and monitored. This boogeyman in my neighborhood is stupid.

3. Because criminals never commit crimes when they are on parole or monitored, right?

It isn't like this was a one shot deal, we are talking about a multiple time sex offender, do you really think those urges are gone?
