please understand this can happen when someone is 80. age means nothing. it is NOT about sex. it is about abuse AND about power. i don't know the history of this man. i don't know if he has a previous record. i don't know if he has dementia (seems like he doesn't according to the authorities).
my point is even when we're FIVE YEARS OLD we're blamed. we WANTED IT, we were ASKING for it.
