In re Commitment of Hardin

Respondent was found to be a sexually violent person persuant to Sexually Violent Persons Commitment Act, after bench trial, and was committed to custody of DHS. Testimony of parole officer, that he observed Respondent on computer viewing sexually explicit images, in violation of MSR conditions, was admissible. A rational trier of fact could find, based on two doctors' testimony, that Respondent presented a danger to the community based on substantial probability that he would commit sexually violent acts in the future. Court is not required to allow a Respondent to make a statement in allocution at dispositional hearing.(McLAREN and HUDSON, concurring.)
