"Gee, is it her dad like the mind readers around here have alleged... With no facts to back it up other than the all knowing internet rumor control mill and the fact that this guy looks a little "trailer trashish"?"
Child molestation knows no class. Jessica's dad looks and acts exactly like a parent missing a child. I know it is usually within the family circle, but could you imagine being accused of something like this while greiving? If the guy was rich, few would suspect him.
You are absolutely right about judging the Dad on the basis of his appearance. However, I cant use a broad brush in saying only the poor, or uneducated are suspect. Remember the well-dressed, well-spoken parents of Joh-Bennet? Who can tell who is guilty based on appearance? People who knew the BTK criminal - could they tell? People who knew Scott Peterson - they couldn't believe someone like Scott was guilty. There are very few who can be judged simply on appearance. Otherwise we would not have a concern about security at airports!
