I'm so fucking disgusted with this. Men's Health magazine had an article giving excuses for why 'good men did nothing'. All the reasons disgusted me, but the one that got me the most was 'cognitive dissonance' meaning despite what you see with your own eyes (McQueery witnessed actual anal rape of a 10 yr old and called his daddy, not the police) you don't believe it because he (the pedophile) is such a good and nice guy.

a friend of mine who worked in child sexual abuse field said that the average pedophile rapes/molests 200 children before being caught.... no I don't have a link, that was what she said...
There are many very good studies in the field to back up what this friend said. Oh, yes, the old cog-dis crap!! We need to (as a society) begin real work about the fact that these perps are in our families, our schools, in non-profit, "do-good" organizations- they are everywhere! Sad, but true and so much needs to be done in how parents can learn to really check-out programs and identify signs of abuse with their kids. But, the real work is about tearing down power structures and having sound reporting laws.

It is hard to accept that there is so much of this going on, I know, but we have got to combat denial and educate ourselves about how these guys set up ways to get at kids right under our noses.
