Sexual Predator Returns to Live in Mondex After 12-Year Prison Sentence

March 27, 2017 | FlaglerLive | 12 Comments

George W. Mason Jr., a 42-year-old man convicted of attempted rape of a child younger than 12 when he was 27, has moved in with family at 1166 Forest Park Street in Daytona North, also known as the Mondex, according to the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office.


The sheriff’s office is required by law to announce the whereabouts of sexual predators in the community when they change addresses. Mason was released from Florida state prison last Thursday (March 23) after serving 12 years of a 14-year sentence. He was sentenced to the rape charge in September 2005 in Duval County. The offense dates back to 2001.

Mason had initially pleaded not guilty, and had faced additional charges of lewd or lascivious exhibition involving a child younger than 16, and an additional count of rape. He withdrew that plea four months later and tendered a plea of guilty in exchange for a lighter sentence (he was not adjudicated guilty on the two additional counts). He had by then already served 138 days in jail, which slightly lessened his state prison time. Having served 80 percent of his sentence, he became eligible for early release.

Mason remains on sex-offender probation until 2027, according to Department of Corrections records.

He moved in with George W. Mason, who has owned the property on Forest Park Street with his wife since 2002, living in a doublewide Homes of Merit manufactured home.

The younger Mason had previously lived in the area.

Poetry.com, the web-based poem-sharing site, includes one poem by a George Wayne Mason Jr. It is not dated, and it is impossible to tell whether the Mason of the Mondex wrote the poem: individuals on sex-offender probation are barred from accessing social media websites, but not barred from using computers. It’s not clear whether poetry.com would rate as a social media site. The poem is titled “Sociopath” and reads, in full:

Sometimes there is a silent rage
That builds in my mind like plague
No matter what I say or do
All my thoughts shift to you
Into the darkness I will walk
Hearing only evil thoughts
No one around me
Is ever aware
Life might end today
Bodies I will tear
Do not approach me
There is no remorse
Just a never-ending
Need for recourse.

    There’s no cure of pedophilia yet. Children should not be alone with him.

    I’m glad to see you are putting it up on Flagler live. The community needs to be more aware. There are plenty of sexual offenders that get out and move to places flooded with elderly people who are not internet savvy because they know they can hide a bit better.

    Why do these guys have more rights than the children they abuse and terrorize? I don’t understand that. When you do something like this to a child, you don’t deserve any rights. That child serves a life sentence.

    Can’t believe he made it 12 years in state prison.

          He is about to be sentenced again for violating his probation. You can research the violation on this site. The next court date is on August 25, 2022 at 9 AM. For his sentencing. He was scoping out the young girls at a near by horse riding school in Bunnell. Bringing his guitar and singing on a picnic table. I hope they lock him up indefinitely . It is only a matter of time before he assaults a young girl again.

          Here is the link to view his pending hearing and sentencing.
