La Liga’s great divide Related Topics U.S. » Technology » Media » By Alex Dobuzinskis LOS ANGELES | Thu Aug 18, 2011 10:14am EDT LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A man has pleaded no contest to sexually battering a woman he met on Match.com in a case that led his date to push for better screening methods by the matchmaking site. Alan Paul Wurtzel, 67, faces a year in jail under the terms of his agreement to plead no contest to the felony charge of sexual battery by restraint, prosecutors said. A no contest plea is equivalent to a guilty plea in California. Wurtzel, of Los Angeles, met the victim on Match.com last year and, on their second date, drove her home and followed her inside where he sexually assaulted her while holding her down, the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office said in a statement. "He's going to jail and he's going to be a sexual offender for life," Carole Markin, a television producer and author who identified herself as the victim in the case, told Reuters in a telephone interview. In April, Markin sued IAC/InterActive Corp-owned Match.com and called on the company to change its screening policies. Days after the lawsuit was filed, Match.com said it would begin checking users of the site against the national sex offender registry. "I thought people, they lie about their age or they lie about their weight, but you don't foresee them to lie about being a sex offender," Markin said. A representative for Match.com could not be reached for comment. Wurtzel had previously been registered as a sex offender over a pair of 2004 misdemeanor sexual battery incidents, said Spencer Hart, a deputy city attorney in Los Angeles. But because those incidents involved misdemeanor charges, the registry with information about Wurtzel was not open to public viewing and instead was restricted to law enforcement, Hart said.

The woman met this pervert on the internet. No different than meeting him in a bar, church or social club as far as knowing whether or not he is a sex offender; they don’t go around with a sign on their forehead. (Although, that might not be a bad idea. Maybe have a tattoo put on their nose to make it look like a penis!) :-D :-D :-D Aug 18, 2011 10:51am EDT -- Report as abuse See All Comments » Add Your Comment Social Stream (What's this?)
