It is true. There really is pedophilia out there, and it is easier to not get caught if you are among the powerful. So pedos choose to get into positions of power. I was a victim. No one believes this powerful person would EVER do such a thing, but that is his cover. And my abuser thought he was a good catholic. I don’t know what they tell themselves to believe such.
I am sorry you had that experience. God bless.
