Kenneth Morton - Repeat Sex Offender - Captured Absconder

"He somehow believes that he's above the law and that if he can get away with it he will," said the mother of one of Morton's alleged pre-teen victims.

"I know that I'm one of three women who has female children who he has been able to make believe that he is a safe and good man," she said.


A convicted sex offender who went on the lam is back in jail.

Kenneth Morton was found Saturday night in Rivera Beach's Phil Foster Park.

The State Attorney's Office says Morton is accused of preying on girls as young as 11.

He was out on probation for trying to lure a pair of underage girls in front of the Boynton Beach Mall when he disappeared.

Morton is being held without bail and is expected to go before a judge Monday morning.
