Police charged a man with molesting his 9-year-old daughter at the sold-out Selena Gomez concert in St. Augustine Sunday night.
Several women sitting behind the 52-year-old father and daughter alerted volunteers at the St. Augustine Amphitheatre about what they considered inappropriate touching. The volunteers told police, who arrested the man after he became aggressive with them and initially wouldn't let them talk to his daughter.
The Times-Union is not identifying the father to protect the girl's identity.
The man was charged with lewd and lascivious molestation on a victim under 12. He is being held in the St. Johns County jail on $10,000 bail and has been ordered to stay away from his daughter if released.
A police report obtained by the Times-Union said one woman saw the man rubbing the girl's arms, playing with her hair and kissing her on the neck, arms and face. She also said she spotted him fondling her below the waist.
A second woman told police she saw him rub her arms and back and playing with her hair. She said she then saw him kiss her neck, shoulders and try to kiss her on the lips. She also saw him fondle her chest.

Why is every car chase in California, and every pedophile in Florida?
Must be either the climate or the water.
Right up to the “fondling of her chest” (which may not have been true at all), I suspect 95% of all dads have done the other stuff. As for the kissing, there is a big difference between a little peck and french kissing; which was it?
Hmmmmm....More to this story for $1000, Alex.
I don’t see anything strange about most of this behavior....some fathers are just very affectionate.
But, the ‘groping’ part is weird if it is actually that.
‘If’ is the big question. Were the two witnesses NOW hag lesbos?
I don’t believe it. Molesters are known for their sneakiness.
Or they saw what they wanted to see. There's not enough in this article; it should not have even been printed without more facts because of the potential damage it could do.
However, there is a significant percentage of the population that now believes that any adult male in the presence of a child is to be assumed to be a child molester and can not be proven innocent.
I agree. I can’t tell from this but some people just don’t like seeing other people be happy. It probably shouldn’t be news until charges are filed.
Sounds like the misandrist biddy brigade in action. But I could be wrong.
It is true that pedophiles are experts on manipulating kids so they don’t tell and feel responsible for what is happening to them.
But sometimes they get real full of themselves and convience themselves that “loving” their little girl is as normal as any other alternative sexual lifestyle. They tell themselves anything goes now.
Commericals, fashion, and the public schools are sexualizing little boys and girls...They tell themselves the kids are loving the sexual relationship with them. As they cruise the internet with their “child sex community” everyone thinks it’s sexy and wonderful for the kidos. Who’s to judge?
They are twisted self centered freaks who feed off one another.
Either he is an incredibly bold molester, or he is a father who communicates his love for his daughter through touch.
So long as the touch was appropriate, then may he be absolved of wrongdoing. If he did touch her inappropriately, then the authorities should throw the book at him.
Want to scare the crap out of yourself? Look up in any sex offender registry, (I went to the county sherriff website) and you will find several pretty close to you, unless you live in a 1 person town. I live in a city of like 2500, and there are like 60+ in the town, and surrounding area. (These are the ones we know about, the ones who ACTUALLY register.) I realize that they all dont like kids, but still, it is frightening.
I would fit in that 95% on occasion. I hope this dad is innocent. I’ve read some crazy stories where parents have been railroaded by overzealous officials and witnesses. I pray truth prevails.
Must be a school teacher? or TSA agent?

I have a friend who is one of the latter types. His four year old daughter seems to love to be tossed around -- being held upside down by her ankles, riding on his shoulders, and so on. They almost wrestle with each other, and she can't stop giggling while he doing it. When he puts her down, it's "Daddy pick me up!!!"
I'm sure that some misandrists would interpret such physicality as evidence of molestation. It's not, and they are mentally ill.
