James Hockenbury, UAlbany's UKids, and crime tips about pedophiles going ignored?

48-year-old James Hockenbury faced a judge on those charges and also confessed in graphic detail to police in a written statement. The statement says he has been sexually interested in children since 2004, when Hockenbury worked at UKIDS, a daycare center at UAlbany.

My name is Jim Hockenbury [...] Began working with kids again in 2004 when I got a job at UKIDS; a daycare center for the teachers, students, and staff of the University at Albany. I started there as a Teacher's Assistant. It was here that I discovered my sexual interest for children. I had never acted on this interest before working at UKIDS or during my time there but there were times that I would get excited while working with the children at UKIDS. Instead of acting on this desire, I would go into the mensroom and masturbate to alleviate sexual tension or desire. That happened, from 2005 through 2014, maybe five times. [...] Also while working at UKIDS, I met the [redacted] in early 2014. They came to UKIDS for daycare services for their [redacted] came there at about 8 months old to the infant room. My now wife, [redacted] started working at UKIDS in 2005. We were introduced by other staff there and dated from 2006 through 2007 and ultimately got married in November 2008. My wife started working with [redacted] as she was the Pre-School teacher and floater since 2013. [...] I stopped working at UKIDS in the spring of 2014 but remained friendly with the [redacted] and would be called upon to watch or babysit [redacted] from time to time. The last time this happened was Saturday April 6th, 2016.

UKids Child Care Center

A satellite of Campus Children's Center, Inc., the mission of the center is to provide the University of Albany community and Capital Region families with the highest quality child care. The Center provides a diverse, educational, friendly, nutritional, and safe environment that meets the needs of its children.

Clarence and Karen McNeill have served on the Board of Directors of the Campus Children's Center, Inc. https://web.archive.org/web/20080705015246/http://www.campuschildrenscenter.com/BoardofDirectors.htm (providing child care on the Harriman campus adjacent to UAlbany and on the UAlbany campus itself) - a center arguably not well served by the UAlbany Police mismanaging its campus sexual offender registry for years, or J. "Frank" Wiley and John M. Murphy falsely claiming in their Clery Act reports that the registry was being maintained, and probably not well served by Clarence L. McNeill's chronic lying and lack of concern for the safety of people on campus, young and old.

Is there another crime tip or crime victim address that actually works? New Yorkers could really use one.

Over a year later, still waiting on a crime tip address for New Yorkers that actually works! Sickening.
