That is their story, and they are sticking with it.
Pedophiles need to be removed from society forever.
I have heard some say, there is no cure for this, so maybe you are right.

Consider the pure destructive, selfish evil necessary to ACT on such desires.
There is a cure and it should be applied to these animals.
Oddly enough, there does appear to be a cure, or at least one that works on those who want badly enough to be cured.
The conventional wisdom is that this behavior has little or nothing to do with sexuality. Since progressives define sex as Good, anything sexual that is Bad, such as child molestation or rape, must be redefined as not really being about sex at all. Which really messes with our ability to deal with them.
It is generally accepted that child molesters reoffend when released at a rate in the vicinity of 90%. Which is where the notion comes from that there is no cure.
However, several countries and I believe one or two states allow the option of chemical castration to offenders who request it. Apparently the recidivism rate for those treated in this way is somewhere around 10%, much lower than for most crimes.
We should remember that some of those with these compulsions are not necessarily and inherently evil people. We don’t get to consciously choose our compulsions, though in general we can decide consciously whether to act on them.
Those requesting this form of treatment are obviously powerfully motivated to stop the behavior, so they are not necessarily a representative group. But the results do seem to show that treatment is possible. It also demonstrates, IMO, that the sex hormones interacting with the brain make such behaviors very nearly irresistible. Remove the sex hormones, and the behavior can be, or at least very often is, successfully resisted.
