Larry Don McQuay

Larry Don McQuay (born 1954) is an American convicted child molester who requested to be surgically castrated in 1995.

McQuay, a former San Antonio, Texas school bus driver, was sentenced to six years in prison in 1990 for molesting a six-year-old boy. Released early for good behavior in 1995, McQuay, who admitted to abusing more than 200 children, [ [http://www.crimelibrary.com/criminal_mind/sexual_assault/child_sex_offenders/5.html Sex offenders targeting children is a serious, growing problem the Crime Library - The Crime library ] ] demanded to be castrated so he could not molest again. If the procedure were not performed, McQuay claimed, he would kill his next victims so they would not testify against him.

McQuay was reincarcerated in 1997 after confessing to molesting a boy in 1989, and was given a 20-year sentence. That same year, Texas Legislature passed a law allowing convicted sex offenders still considered dangerous to society to undergo voluntary surgical castration.

McQuay was mandatorily released in May 2005 for time served and good behavior, although he will be on parole and required to wear an electronic tracking device for the next 11 years. His lawyer said that he was surgically castrated in prison the year before, but this has not yet been conclusively proven.
