 Dear Jurors - do not believe a word of that.  For a sex offender of ricky's caliber, his past is his future - i.e. , he will re-offend.  i'm hoping the DA corrected his esteemed colleagues ruse, i mean belief.  i'm sure the DA read off the statistics for recidivism as if mr laseur's rap sheet wasn't enough..  3 strikes- he's in!
