Mr. Brodsky said, those charged with a sex crime pleaded guilty to offenses other than sex crimes, ensuring that they would not be listed on the statewide sex offender registry meant to alert local law enforcement authorities and the public that a person convicted of a sex crime is in their midst. Mr. Brodsky, who is running against Andrew Cuomo, Mark Green and Denise O'Donnell, a former United States attorney ,said a civil confinement law, which lawmakers in Albany are now considering, would not solve the problem of sexual predators if prosecutors did not also make cases that lead to tough sentencing. Tantaros also accused him of playing politics with the issue and making a desperate attempt to hide from his abysmal record on the issue. Mr. Brodsky recently voted in favor of a civil confinement bill, after the bill had languished for years in the Democratic-controlled Assembly.
