HOW DO WE PROTECT OUR CHILDREN FROM PREDATORS?Written by LINDA J ALEXANDER, ESQ
In light of increasing dangers to our family, especially our children -- WhoisHe.Com and WhoisShe.Com is an online professional service that provides comprehensive background checks and criminal record searches designed to verify if persons are who they purport to be. This online service is brainchild of Southern California attorney, Linda Alexander. WhoisHe.Com and WhoisShe.Com allows people to do these checks for reasonable rates, in order to protect their families and themselves. According to Alexander, conviction and death sentence of David Westerfield, for kidnap and murder of his seven year old neighbor, Danielle Van Dam, has caused anxious uneasiness to parents who are now seeking ways to protect their loved ones from suspicious persons who live in their own neighborhood with potential access to their family . Additionally, abduction of Elizabeth Smart in Utah last summer has also caused much concern, when it was revealed that handyman who worked in Smart House was a career criminal. A background and criminal record check would have provided this information to Smart family and might have alerted them to potential dangers of bringing this man into their home and providing him access to their family. This concern and effort to protect their family members have caused thousands to swarm to WhoisHe.Com and WhoisShe.Com, to find out more information on persons such as: Nannies, Day Care Providers, In-Home Health Care Workers, and others who provide home services, such as Gardeners, Painters, Contractors, House Cleaners, suspicious neighbors and anyone else who would have access to a person's home and their family. Alexander says that she has also had requests to check out Sports Coaches and their assistants who are spending a great deal of time with children. Parents are concerned about safety of their family members. They want to find out if person who has access or is in charge of their children is a convicted pedophile or has any type of criminal record.

At a time when violent crime nationwide is on decline --murders down 13 percent from 1999 --one crime statistic is haunting criminal justice system. The killing or injury of children by their parents or stepparents shows an alarming rise. Between 1976 and 1997, approximately 11,000 children were murdered by those who gave them life or were supposed to give them care. Thousands more were victims of life-threatening injuries. So it is no surprise that in this era of information and cyber-technology, concerned parents and grandparents are turning for help to one new website on Internet. WhoisHe.Com and WhoisShe.Com reports having received thousands of requests from parents and grandparents to do background and criminal record checks on new stepparent or significant other of their ex-spouse. " In past year there has been a tremendous increase in number of persons wanting us to do investigations of this nature," notes Linda Alexander, a Southern California attorney and website founder. "Parents and grandparents want to protect these children from potential abuse." Alexander 's online company specializes in a wide variety of comprehensive background checks and criminal record searches designed to verify if persons are who they purport to be. Have they ever used an alias? Do they have a criminal record? Have they committed domestic violence? Are they a registered sexual offender? A pedophile?
