No matter who was in the house, the father left Casey for *a few moments* while he went to the bathroom. The creep had to have grabbed her, covered her mouth, and ran, in those few seconds.

One of my kids once left his bike at the door while he got the key to the basement from me to lock it up. A minute at the most. But the bike was gone, stolen, when he got back out. My anger wasn't at my son, but the thief who was just waiting, who was just there with nothing more to do but swoop down and steal.

We can blame the parents in hindsight all we like. I can say truthfully I'm more careful, more paranoid, than these parents were. But he went to take a pee. He didn't neglectfully leave her. He left for a moment, and no one could *expect* anything to happen in a moment. He didn't do anything wrong in that moment. Maybe in other things he did. But not in that moment.

We don't expect evil to move so swiftly as to swoop down as we're going to get the key to prevent the evil, or while we run to the bathroom, or let a kid play in front of the house. Now we know it can happen.

But the parents didn't *DO* it, and it is not the parents' *fault* that an evil ghoul was there just waiting to pounce! They know now, and so do we, that evil is always ready to prey on us. They doesn't make it *our* fault.

*IT IS NOT THE PARENTS' FAULT THAT A SLIMEY GHOUL SNATCHED AND KILLED THEIR DAUGHTER,* no matter what the character of the parents!!!! It is ENTIRELY the ghoul's doing!

Out of fear, out of anger, out of grief and confusion, we aren't placing the blame where it belongs--and that's on the person or persons who committed the crime.

Kids need some freedom anyhow. You can't just keep them locked up all the time while the perverts and murderers run free. Liberals seem to like the good people caged up and they take the side of the evil ones every time.
