Berlin authorities placed children with pedophiles for 30 years (The 'Kentler Project')

Starting in the 1970s psychology professor Helmut Kentler conducted his "experiment." Homeless children in West Berlin were intentionally placed with pedophile men. These men would make especially loving foster parents, Kentler argued.

A study conducted by the University of Hildesheim has found that authorities in Berlin condoned this practice for almost 30 years. The pedophile foster fathers even received a regular care allowance.

Helmut Kentler (1928-2008) was in a leading position at Berlin's center for educational research. He was convinced that sexual contact between adults and children was harmless.

Berlin's child welfare offices and the governing Senate turned a blind eye or even approved of the placements.

Several years ago two of the victims came forward and told their story, since then the researchers at Hildesheim University have plowed through files and conducted interviews.

What they found was a "network across educational institutions," the state youth welfare office and the Berlin Senate, in which pedophilia was "accepted, supported, defended."

Kentler himself was in regular contact with the children and their foster fathers. He was never prosecuted: By the time his victims came forward, the statute of limitations for his actions had expired. This has also thus far prevented the victims from getting any compensation.

The researchers found that several of the foster fathers were high-profile academics. They speak of a network that included high-ranking members of the Max Planck Institute, Berlin's Free University, and the notorious Odenwald School in Hesse, West Germany, which was at the center of a major pedophilia scandal several years ago. It has since been closed down.

Berlin's senator for youth and children, Sandra Scheeres called the findings "shocking and horrifying."

A first report on the "Kentler experiment" was published in 2016 by the University of Göttingen. The researchers then stated that the Berlin Senate seemed to lack interest in finding out the truth.

Now Berlin authorities have vowed to shed light on the matter.

Yeah, now they look and care, after the influential people that can buy the politicians are gone.

This is nasty stuff.

1.) I surprised he didn’t receive a Nobel Prize.

2.) In ten years this will be the center of the Democrat Party platform.

Why do you think the euro elites want to replace the native european population with mohammedans?

Made me think of Will Greer (played Grandpa Walton) and his gay partner, Harry Hay, who was a charter member of NAMBLA and said every 14 year old boy should have a gay teacher. Makes you wonder what happened behind the scenes on Walton Mountain.

I was rather stunned and disappointed to find this out about Grandpa Walton....then, to top it off, Grandma Walton was a lesbian as well!

its about global domination.
they are the same asses who participated in foisting the marxist-muslim BHO on us.
they are the reason for using America’s might in opening the floodgates via Benghazi.
Yes, there is a war going on out there.

Blm is an integral part of that war.

Looking back, a lot of the plots in the Walton’s were making fun of us. E people watched it thinking it was respectful. Like most of Hollywood, it wasn’t.

Good one. Only vaguely remembered they dug him up. I was thinking Frankenstein. But Cromwell will do nicely if no mad scientists come forward!

They very carefully dance around whether these pedophiles are attracted to girls or boys. In the specifics I’ve seen in the articles, it seems to be gay men who are attracted to boys.
