A small town in Alabama has become divided in a big dispute — now that an angry father has put up a billboard trying to get a registered sex offender to move! Jeb Lessley invested $160 to put up this sign that shows the address of his neighbor Raymond Martin, revealing that the neighbor served time for a 2013 conviction for sex with an underage girl. But the angry ex-con is fighting back!

"There's people that already know my circumstances," said an angry Martin — adding; "They can find it on the website, but it ain't got to be broadcast. There's more than one sex offender that lives here!" But outraged dad Lessley says that he had to take steps to protect his six kids — with the oldest being 14 years old.

"The reason I posted the billboard," said Lessley (pictured), "is because he has been a thorn in my side since he moved into this house. He just has a lot of problems. To be honest with you, we don't want to live in fear of him."

Lessley went on to make startling claims about his unwanted neighbor: "He's threatened to burn our house down. He's threatened to poison our dogs. He told my 9 year-old daughter he was going to kill and skin her cat."

Martin denies those claims, and insists that he was convicted of having sex with a 15-year-old girl that he believed to be of legal age. "I went without my daddy," added the new father, saying that he won't move out of town. "My daughter's not fixing to go without hers."
