This is very different if it happened as described. Her beauty cannot protect her from full judgement. I’ve never heard the phrase ‘came forward to report abuse’ used when referring to someone only FOUR YEARS OLD! First thing would be to verify as much as is possible whether or not this happened. I have only fleeting glimpses of memories being that young. Nowhere would any of that behavior have ever come up in my home. NEVER!
I find it both incredible and yet very credible, given how common this form of assault has become today. Where was everybody else?
Were any other adults complicit by aiding or abetting this?
The mind boggles. First thought is both are here illegally, and the girl figured she could act without being detected, since almost no one in that town knew who she or the child were.
Sexual abuse of very young children is unfortunately more common than one would think. They’re easy to impose upon or persuade, for one thing, and often do not have the skills to report abuse. It is likely that the teenaged girl was abused herself as a young child. She could be a family member of the little boy: that’s why I mentioned in my first post that it would have been useful to know the context. If she was a babysitter or daycare worker, there could be other victims.
