Jailing sex offenders 'ineffective'
By Leslie Knight
Of the Emerald
Sex offenders can be treated
better in controlled or open com
munity therapy programs rather
than in prison, a Quaker minister
who has worked in prisons for 30
years said Friday.
"People need restraint, but that
doesn’t mean they need inc arc ora
tion, " Fay knopp said during a
workshop titled "Remedial In
tervention in Sex Offenses." Only
a small percentage of sex of
fenders need to be in a very con
trolled environment, she said.
Rape1 and other sexual assaults
are pseudo-sexual acts" that in
volve acting out ot anger,
dominance and control through
sexuality, Knopp said. She said
these are learned behaviors that
sex offenders can be reeducated
to control.
Advocating''remedies rather
than punishment," Knopp said
therapy programs take a variety of
forms. They can be used as a
substitute for imprisonment for
lesser offenses, a program for the
last two years of a person's
sentence, as well as an ongoing
program for people coming out of
prison.
Controlled therapy programs
might involve a separate wing of a
hospital where offenders are
restrained 24 hours a day. In open
programs, the1 offender comes in
for therapy, but otherwise is a
community member.
Knopp said therapists agree that
offenders who raped or used
violence are too risky fpr open
programs. Otfenders who fit into
the category of less-threatening
offenses, such as exhibitionists or
voyeurs, are better off in therapy
than prison, she said.
“Whatever we do, we must con
sider the offender and his needs,
the victim and his or her needs,
and the* community and its
needs," knopp said. Imprison
ment without therapy does
nothing to change behavior, she
said.
Therapy programs around the
country toe us on dealing with
anger and c auses tor deviant
behavior. Knopp said a majority of
sex offenders were abused as
children and never learned an ap
propriate way to vent anger. This
is coupled with societal
stereotypes that portray the
woman as weak and passive, the
man as aggressive.
The sex offender unit at Oregon
State Hospital follows a strict
10-step program that involves
privileges and restrictions based
on behavior. The* objective's for
these* steps include recognition by
the offender of his deviant
behavior, an understanding of its
cause and a firm commitment to
responsible behavior, Knopp said.
The sex offender is "into denial,
manipulation and avoidance,"
when it comes to dealing with his
offense, she said. This makes get
ting the offender to accept
responsibility for his actions one
Visual music presented
Guest artist Ron Pellegrino will give a lecture and recital on the visual
application of music at 8 p.m. Friday, Nov. 4, in Beall Concert Hall at the
University.
His presentation is sponsored the University Committee for Musical
Arts. Admission is $2.
The lecture, "Visualizing Music and Music Theory: A 21st Century Ap
proach," will utilize a laser projection system to graphically show how
the structural principles of music operate. The presentation includes a
short performance and a demonstration of visual music composition.
Pellegrino is composer, theorist and author of "The Electronic Arts of
Sound and Light." He began his electronic music career as a graduate
student at the University of Wisconsin in 1967.

of the most difficult aspects of
therapy, Knopp said.
In the Oregon State program,
they do this by having the of
fender act out his crime with a
lifesize doll and watch it played
bac k on videotape. He then has to
role-play the victim. This allows
the offender to identify with the
victim, instead of closing himself
off to emotion and pain, Knopp
said.
Knopp said these programs will
do tar more than impisonment
can to change the behavior of sex
offenders when they are back in
the community.
