Child molesters disguise themselves very well. That's why they get away with it for so long. My uncle who was a Baptists preacher for half his life molested 2 children that he and his wife fostered then later adopted. He also molested his own son. Yes he does deserve his 'due process', but just because you have known & trusted someone for years does not mean they are ok. After all they hide their actions very well and its not meant by them for anyone to find out.
...sorry man, that is rough stuff. I agree with you, and the fact that this guy needs his day in court is true indeed.......having said that, if this is true, bury him under the prison.
