short-eye 

Every parent knows what short-eyes means. It's that weird man (or woman) who doesn't look the parent in the eye, but instead looks down to stare at the children. In prison, it refers to a pedo.

Short eyes

Old school prison slang for a child molester. Term entered the public lexicon in the late 1970s when Miguel Piñero adapted his play Short Eyes into a movie with the same title that became a cult classic and had a popular soundtrack album performed by Curtis Mayfield, including the hit single Do Do Wap Is Strong In Here. The movie is about a pedophile, or "short eyes", who gets tortured and ultimately killed by his fellow inmates after they find out what he's in jail for.

However, the term is rarely used these days. More common current terms for child molesters in prison are chomo and skinner.
