As a society WE stood idly by and allowed/enabled this to happen.I'd like to blame every greedy lawyer and special interest group that's sprung up in the last 20 years...also, our slack-ass judicial system that doesn't really give a crap when a pedophile is caught...all those that feel everyone can be "rehabilitated" and then set them loose once again on society so we can all be in shock when they revert back to the useless sack of cells they really are...
I have heard that if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem.
