“A stepparent is more likely to commit abuse like this than a real parent.”

Quite true.

Which in no way responds to my post in which I noted that until the FemiNazi Era, evidence was required. “He said” v. “She said” had too many instances of miscarriage of justice, especially when many years had elapsed.

Many children were molested when they were young. It went unreported or was just not caught but the children know it happened. So when years later the child/adult speaks out how are they suppose to “prove” it? Am not trying to go on a witch hunt here but at the same time families have had “dirty little secrets” kept hidden that need exposed.

To many times false claims have been admitted after decades of prison.
Step kids can also be the most evil and deviant of children who will do
anything to take away attention for themselves. Or to get even for invented neglect.

Also, to the FemiNazi's any discipline is considered abuse.

More info is needed though.

She says he did it, he says he didn't. After ten years more or less, I can't imagine what other evidence there could be. The article mentions none, just a jury trial and a conviction of a man with no prior record. The fact that she didn't report this offense at all, and even says her intention was to write an essay for a college application, allows for negative inference.

If we start putting people away merely because an individual fits a statistical sample, we will have left the very concept of justice behind, and ventured out onto dangerously thin ice.
