(Natural News) New York City, New York – There’s nothing more unwanted in a community than someone convicted crimes related to pedophilia – yet it seems that New York City has housed six convicted pedophiles in a Manhattan hotel that lies just under 1000 feet away from a elementary school playground.

According to state law, the aforementioned is a violation of law in and of itself via issued court opinions on what it means that convicted sex offenders cannot enter or be near schools or other areas primarily designated for children.
The Belleclaire hotel at Broadway and West 77th Street is located near the playground for PS 87, which the state’s Sex Offender Registry still shows the six to still be housed there under their primary residence.
As of August 7th, a city rep noted that the listings were inaccurate and claimed that the six mentioned pedophiles on the registry “are not at that location.” When pressed on whether the six men have ever been housed at said location post release, no further comment was provided by the city rep.
As of August 8th, Law Enforcement Today confirmed on the registry that the men are still being listed as living at the addresses afforded to the Belleclaire hotel.
Here are the six pedophiles still listed at the address:
