Actually, I would say that, if anything, child molestation is a fate worse than death (such as murder). At least with death, it is over. With child molestation, the victim lives with its horrible consequences (sexual, social, mental, etc.) for the rest of his/her life.
Hi, TSR. A belated Merry Christmas, and thanks for all the pings.
Ther eis some positive fallout from this case. I’m in southern Delaware, a half hour from where this girl was found. Delaware legislators have already heard an earful from their constituents about this case, and news laws are being proposed, when the Legislature starts its 2010 term after New Year’s.
