We can be grateful that this sick man is apparently dumb enough to do something like this and get himself thrown back in prison where he quite obviously belongs:

A Florida sex offender was arrested after he allegedly tried to "purchase" an 8-year-old girl for $100,000 at a grocery store, police said.

Hellmuth Kolb, 85, approached the child's mom at a Winn Dixie in Port Orange Thursday and made the indecent proposal, according to the Port Orange Police Department. ...

"Approached me in the parking lot. Actually chased me down in the parking lot and said ‘hey, I want to make a deal with you.' I'd like to buy her for $100,000. I was in complete shock."

Yeah there's only one proper response to that type of proposal:

You got to love the police department's handling of the situation, though:

Thanks to our SIU, Mr. Kolb did receive a complimentary ride in one of our air-conditioned Police cars, and a free stay at Hotel 92 (Volusia County Branch Jail).

Nothing like a ride in a cop car to put your behavior in perspective.
