All of you sound very sincere about identifying and preventing the sexual abuse of children. I recommend you look for a program called Stewards of Children .. it is a national program developed by Darkness2Light and is specifically to help adults recognize sexual abuse and the ways parents, teachers, etc can prevent this abuse.

Good touch/bad touch programs are vital for the children but the responsibility for prevention lies with the adults.

In Pensacola, Florida, as in many cities, this training is provided through our Children's Advocacy Center.

It goes without saying that this was a lucky catch. My comment is to Slim. Obama has and does support a measure that would begin sex education in pre-school (parents choice). He was assassinated in the media for his proposal. I was abused as a child by Uncles and step-father, pastor too. I was being raised by my grandparents and they just didn't talk about those things. I ended up having a baby at 16. In raising my daughter I was ill equipped when the time came to teach her these things. Parents should take the lead but often times they just don't know how. We need a program to fill the gaps. Arguing about it only leaves kids in need without recourse. Who really looses?

Thank heavens for Santa Clause, and that her wish was granted. May she now experience life the way God intended it to be, without abuse!!!
This is so sad to read, but I am glad to see that authorities stepped in to see the abuse stop. This is one very brave little girl. But how sad that she felt there was no one else to help her and her sister up to this point, that is not right. Children should not have to live in fear or a situation like this!!
May the individual guilty of abusing this child and may any and all individuals who abuse children (or people in general) be put behind bars forever. While just putting them behind bars is really too good for them, it is the least we can do to protect the innocent and young!!! Nobody has a right to abuse anybody!!!! There is no excuse at all.
I am glad this little girl received the help she needed. May the rest of her life be nothing but happiness.
Yes, there is a Santa Clause and he lives in all our our hearts!!!

I am so sorry that these little girls had to endure such agony from this low life SOB. I blame the system that we live in that allows this crap to happen. I belive the laws should be made stricter so that this doesn't happen again to any child. Too many offenders are just hit with a slap on the wrist and sent home. People have no respect for laws because if they do go to jail, they get to watch tv, exercise, get their meals and a so called roof over their heads. WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!!!! I personally hope he gets what he deserves.

Hey "Brad" are you a pedophile? Every site about children dying or being abused you post a porn site. You are one sick perverted maggot

It makes me sad to know that this little girl couldn't tell anyone else earlier. I also makes you realize how lucky alot of us are that our children are safe and never have to go through this. Hold your children close and let them know that no matter what, they can come to you with anything. I hope he gets the full 99 years and that his cell mates take care of him in the same way he did those little girls

1. As foul as pedophilia is, how is "punishment by convict" any better? How can a society that calls itself 'just' tolerate the use of its prisoners to mete out punishments that the society itself would rightly condemn? Should not every effort be made to end rape, period, whether it be by prisoners or free men?

I taught elementary school for 10 years. Everytime I reported anything to DCS, it was not resolved. After I retired from teaching, I went to work for our states DCS and learned, by experience that about one in 10 reports by "abused children" were lies on their part to pay back parents or relatives for discipline. Don't judge anyone until you have evidence. It this man is guilty, he deserves mulilation, if he is innocent, he will still be branded for the rest of his life. (I am also a former abused child who was not beleived.) It is better to report things, but you still need hard evidence to convict. If there was no penetration or witnesses, the word of a child is usually not enough for a judge and jury.

Why waste taxpayers money on this slime. Fry him I even pull the switch. Anybody that does this to any child should not see the light of day again.

Its scumbags like these that are ruiening and making it hard for us people to make a good life. I currently got my newborn child taken away cause of me having anxiety and because i have been under some stress. and to protect the child cause of people like this and people who hurt their children i have to prove i would never lash out at my children if i got mad. I have never been a violent person and ilived a very dysfunctional life. I hope this man rots in jail stupid scumbag!! and i hope those little girls never have to be remeber of this later in life and they can make a good life for themselves. GOD HELP US WITH THIS CRAZY WORld!!!

Sincerely,

Teresa

So Pastor Rick Warren says that gays and pedophiles like this man are the same?

Child Abusers tend to have the toughest time in prison. He deserves it. A child should never have to suffer abuse. I think Brad who made the second comment is as bad as the child abuser. He uses a story about abused little girls to talk about sex tapes. What kind of pervert would make that connection.

Shoot the B^STARD in the balls until both nuts are severly and unable to be saved by the drs and let him scream in pain everyday and he can remember what a B*STARD he was to those girls, I'm glad I dont know him because I would be the first to shoot his balls, if he did that to my girls.....son of a b*stard!!!

I believe that it's our responsibility to educate our kids from a very early age on trust, good and bad bahaviors and who to go to if someone does something bad. Most kids don't know what to do if something like this happens and most parents don't talk about this stuff with their kids. It needs to be talked about!! When I as a kid, they didn't talk about the "bad" places to touch until After I had been raped!!

Unfortunately it is not only adults but also adelocent children that we have to be careful of our children with. My four year old son just recently disclosed that my thirteen year old nephew has been touching his privates. I was devasted and tried to tell my sister what i felt was happening. Her response was that my son was playing make believe. I called the department of childrens services and they did a foresenic interview with my son. Based on that and my nephews subsequent confession he is being charged with a class b felony. Unfortunately this happens all the time and it is usually a family member or someone else who is close the the family that offend against our children. Luckily my son's preschool teacher had just taught them the difference between a bad touch and a good touch so he knew to tell someone.
