It upsets me when 4 year olds are sexually abused, regardless of the political ideology or religion of the abuser.

And it should upset you. I know first hand that what happened in this case happens all of the time, but the shame to both the victim and victimizer keep it from being discussed openly (not to mention the legal repercussions).

I have had to deal with a similar thing where the boy and girl involved were both 4.

I have had to deal with a male student groping a female student’s breast when both were about 13.

I have had to help police recover cell data on an assault case.

I am familiar with how common this kind of behavior has become among elementary and junior high age students due to most of them having cell phones with cameras, internet, and video playback capabilities.

A business partner also has shared multiple cases with me where he had to assist police with video surveillance to deal with similar issues and accusations.

I have had many people share their heartbreak with me over things that were done to them.

Many males and females have shared their experiences of being raped or sexually assaulted.

From my experience, a lot of the condemnation, hypocrisy, and moral outrage come from people who do not know what is really happening to a large percentage of the children in our nation because many victims (let alone perps who are often victims as well) do not feel they can be open with their own parents because they are scared about how they will respond.

What a lot of people say on this forum about how they would get violent and take the law into their own hands or throw a family member in prison and wreck their lives by labeling them sex offenders IS NOT what the victims needs to hear in order to be reassured enough to open up.

Do you imagine these sisters are happy to know their brother’s life is being wrecked even if it is his own fault? From my experience they probably want him to get help and put it in the past. But a lot of people here want to publicize things like this and rejoice to see this guy suffer and even his family suffer who are not guilty of anything.
