Yes, you're right. We should just give celebrities a pass. Saves time and money. Seriously though, those who have pointed out on this thread how difficult these cases are, are right. Child molestors are experts at "grooming" children, and they do so with families who are not exactly straight out of "Father Knows Best." Unfortunate but true.

Same thing in criminal cases. Your witnesses generally aren't the cream of the community. E.g., can you testify as to burglaries you've seen or known about? I can't. But there's lots of sleazy people out there who can.

Where did you come up with that genius?
