He was pleaded “guilty of keeping me clean“ This was in 1999. unfortunately that care worker is STILL working😢 Cindy Seever Lowe of Wisconsin Rapids, WI. There’s a special place down below waiting for her…by the way, her husband , A POLICE OFFICER, sh0t himself in the head with a nailg@n because his boss found CP on his laptop. It’s all on Google. My father got away with it all, passed away a free man. I pray this child and children like myself get justice because i didn’t. Parents should be protectors.

I appreciated your anger on this one. Often times journalist are so focused on telling a story they don’t let their own emotions influence the delivery. I think you both did a great job on telling us the facts with as minimal bias as possible while still being human and sharing the emotions we all were feeling. I’d rather watch videos like this then a newscaster just spewing info out like a robot.

What? Let me tell you, both of my natural parents had "decent", "normal" office jobs and both of them were abusive in ALL ways, including SA. Careers have absolutely zero to do with who is a perpetrator and who isn't.

Shame on the state for giving them custody of their children

[@MsPiinkFllamingo]

I called a California lawyer about a man who did CA/CP with me 30 years prior and got immediately turned-down. Very coldly I might add. Zero sympathy. All of these public celebrity lawsuits are not helping things. We need widely public cases like this.

He was eventually charged with 35 felony counts that he still fighting to this day. I started dating him at 16 when he was 21.... he manipulated me into lying to my parents and staying by his side always.... Im now free and in the process of healing from the past 6 years.... I couldn't understand being any younger... I pray for these children and for a bright future.

[@ishowmaxgoofz]

The fact that she said it’s rare that it’s not usually the parents who SA but a family friend just shows the world continues to keep secrets . It’s more common than you know . Ppl need to wake up already and help spread truth instead of protecting their family members and being scared cuz being afraid will continue to hold back our society and a lack of growth and justice will be our downfall . Someday evil will be the default if us hurting our planet doesn’t get us first . Grow up and help end ignorance before it’s too late

[@VishusVenom]

Stop farting out opinions and read facts. Extraordinarily rare.

[@OpalMoonstone247]

If you have any Bible at all, have a look at Hebrews 4:13. Everything wicked will come to the light(and Justice will be served). Nothing is hidden from the One who sees all things. Jehovah is His name(YHWH). All in due time, he'll fix this broken world. Psalm 37:10 says 'Just a little while longer, and the wicked will be no more...' Psalm 37:34 'Hope in Jehovah and follow his way, and he will exalt you to take possession of the earth. When the wicked are done away with, you will see it.' [NWT Study Bible]

Not true. Yes in the past. There have been some great judges who are pounding down their hammers on the worst offender. People change things. But they have to stop saying this is so rare. Sadly, it isn't. We have so much historical references of this being too common, not less.
