Newspaper sorry after its gallery of 'top 10 hottest female sex offenders' causes outrage

Article here. Excerpt:

'A newspaper has been forced to apologise after its list of the 'top 10 hottest sex offenders' caused an outcry.

The Houston Press yesterday published the article featuring who they believed were the 10 'hottest' women in a huge Texas-wide sex offender database.

Alongside the women's mugshots, the online article also listed the women's crimes and the age of their victims - one was as young as two years old.

The tone of the article was jokey and in most cases years old mugshots of the offenders were used.

It suggested readers may want to 'click the link' of the women before sending 'any marriage proposals' suggesting that they might not look quite as 'hot' now.

Unsurprisingly the article triggered a deluge of complaints from readers.'
