Mr. Terry Stone (DOB: 6-13-50) is a diagnosed pedophile who suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder. He was convicted on three separate occasions for lewd and lascivious acts against five different victims who were between the ages of 6 and 11. The crimes for which he was convicted spanned a 10-year period and in 1994 he was sentenced to serve 19 years in prison for his crimes. Prior to his release date the San Diego county District Attorney's office filed a petition to commit Mr. Stone as a sexually violent predator. As a result, instead of being released Mr. Stone was committed to the state hospital as an SVP in February of 2003. Last year, Mr. Stone filed a petition seeking conditional release from the hospital. In December 2013, a hearing was held and the court determined that Mr. Stone could be safely released into the community for continued treatment and supervision. On April 2, 2014, DSH proposed placement of Mr. Stone at 2632 Frying Pan Road, Borrego Springs, CA 92004. Pursuant to Welfare & Institution Code section 6609.1, the public is permitted to comment on the proposed location before it is finalized by the Court. The hearing is scheduled for May 2, 2014 at 9:00 a.m. in Department 53 of the downtown courthouse. If you wish to comment on the proposed placement you can submit your comments through any of the methods listed below. The period for public comment will begin April 2, 2014 and end April 11, 2014. The comments will be forwarded to DSH and to the Court for consideration prior to the hearing. Public comment will also be accepted at the hearing.
