The Perv Next Door
-
You assume when you hear that some perv's been arrested or convicted for sex offenses involving kids that it's someone creepy and obvious, but then you notice that in so many cases, everyone's surprised. Take this popular cheerleading coach who helped train many for college squads and did so without asking for any money and threw popular Halloween parties, and owned an indoor playground with inflatables. Now, they think that maybe he was doing everything for free to avoid background checks that would have turned up a past conviction for molestation of a 10-year-old. Or this pillar of the community, a City Councilman who helped the poor, drove biker gangs out of town, fed lunches to kids through a church ministry, and is now facing molestation charges after police a third of the way across the country connected him to kiddie porn and molestation. People are shocked, but how do you ever really know what people who work with kids are really up to? (Knoxville News Sentinel; Toronto Star)
