This is such a text-book case of child sex abuse by a pediphile with power and "social" standing. Sometimes I think that parents ought to just find a way to take these guys out- but that isn't right either- but I know that feeling, just wanting to kill the abuser. But my kid had to testify as an adolescent against a female perp- it was not fun and there was damage to him from this as well as the abuse. Defense attorneys pick at anything the kid may have done to dis-credit him or her. No winning for victims even when a perp is found guilty and sentenced.

In these cases, I just wish the damn abuser would plead guilty so that the victims don't have to go through what they will be facing. No wonder so many victims don't speak up. It makes me sick!!

My main feelings right now are aimed at hope for the victims and their families in getting help and support.
