A Colorado man who was found guilty of sexually molesting children and sentenced to more than 300 years in prison has been released — on a judicial technicality.

In 2015, Michael McFadden, 46, was sentenced to serve 300 years after being convicted of 19 counts of sexual offenses against six children, KJCT8-TV reports.

But he was released from prison on Tuesday after the Colorado Court of Appeals overturned his conviction. Worse, he cannot be retried on those charges.

And the article says he doesn't have to register as a sex offender.  So if he wants, he could move somewhere else and "ply his trade" with a whole new batch of victims.  Just great. 

Maybe if we are all lucky, someone will administer some "street justice on him. 

This is why I do not believe in gun control, even though I myself don't have any firearms.  We need protection from perps like this one.  We cannot rely on law enforcement or the courts to keep us safe.

Thank heavens, he's been arrested again for failing to register -- in re an earlier conviction.  No idea how long they can hold him.  But at least he'll still have to register.

Thank you for the update @LauraTXNM   Good to know he still has to register at least.
