(Court opinion of 5/28/10 reconsidered per supervisory order of 9/29/10.) Respondent was convicted, in 1980, of multiple counts of rape and sentenced to many concurrent terms of imprisonment, the longest of which required 40-year sentence. No constitutional violations arise out of Respondent's continued commitment to care and custody of DHS, as Respondent presently suffers from mental disorder that creates strong probability that he will engage in future acts of sexual violence. (R.E. GORDON, concurring; GARCIA, dissenting.)
