Before your wife visits the chiropractor ...

Sex offender is allowed to be a chiropractor

Excerpt:

For the next four years, Dr. Scott Fredin can't buy pornography or use the Internet without a probation officer's approval. The police can drop by at any time to see if he has been drinking. As a registered sex offender, he must tell authorities every time he moves or gets a new job.

One thing the 41-year-old chiropractor won't have to do, however, is tell his clients he spent two years in jail for sexually assaulting two patients.

This month, more than six years after revoking Fredin's license for the felony convictions, the state Board of Chiropractic Examiners granted Fredin's request to get his license back. To protect Fredin's clients, the board said he cannot treat any female patients without someone else in the room. Fredin is working in Minneapolis, but he can't treat patients until regulators approve his new location.

  1. Interesting that anyone would let him join their practice. One would think that psychologists and psychiatrists, of all people, would know the hazards of having a sex offender work with them.

    (or, to be very cynical, are they hoping for business counseling this clown's victims?)

    It's also interesting that the state is prohibiting him from having porn or alcohol, even though the article does not indicate these were involved in his crimes. The state justice system is more or less suggesting that they know these are linked to these crimes.

    While, of course, the schools vigorously deny this link. Hmmm.....

  2. Sex offenders should be prohibited from professions like this! Any counseling, ministerial, physicians, etc.!

    Garbage man = OK!

  3. I went with my wife, everytime, when she went to the chiro. Not that I didn't trust the guy (most of the people where my wife works go to this guy), but there is something strange knowing that another guy is going to be doing things that chiropractors do to your wife.
