No excuse but I’d bet my life savings the same thing happened to Jerry when he was a kid. The punishment for child molestation should be life in prison because they reek havoc on our society.
Chapter ten of this book:
http://www.amazon.com/Predators-Pedophiles-Rapists-Other-Offenders/dp/0465071732
Should be instructive.
It behooves pedophiles to present themselves as victims too in prisons. The percentage of those claims which are factual turns out to be not so much.
I wouldn't. There are millions of trauma victims who do not re-enact, and there are fetishists who molest without any previous history. I might bet ten bucks though.
