BRAMPTON — No one has seen Madilyn Harks in person since the transgendered convicted pedophile was dumped into a women’s halfway house here last week — but she has gone online looking for a date.

Sources tell the Toronto Sun that the 36-year-old, who now identifies as a woman and was convicted of sexually assaulting three girls under eight, has turned to social media in an attempt to make love connections.

“This offender has been on dating sites looking for women,” said a source. “It’s bloody frightening.”

When told about this, Mayor Patrick Brown, and his entire city council, were apoplectic.

“This needs to be investigated,” said Brown. “If this person is on female dating sites while being sentenced for sex crimes against young girls, it’s absolutely outrageous and it must be stopped.”

Brampton council unanimously passed a resolution Wednesday to officially complain to Corrections Canada for “putting such a dangerous person in our community and around our children.”
