I may have wanted to kill the man who sexually abused my daughter, but I never would have. I didn't even lay a hand on him when, after being confronted with the evidence, he calmly said that "They misconstrued it" (meaning the girls mistook whatever he did as being dirty and nasty but it really wasn't).

I only know part of it. It's hard to "misconstrue" someone's hand inside your pajamas, on your private parts, as they're "fixing the blankets". There's more that happened that I don't even want to think about.

And you know what really pisses me off?

My sister...his wife...I feel she knowingly aided and abetted him. They would have kids stay overnight at their home. The kids slept upstairs in a loft area. Instead of going up to "check the kids" in the middle of the night, she let him go up, even when it was only girls staying over. He always insisted, and she never said, "Let's do it together". And she never questioned why it took him so long to just check on the kids.

We were the best of friends before all this came out. Now we've barely spoken since 1985 or so. This broke the entire family up.

Nobody believed he did what he was accused of. Not until one of my nieces (his daughter) tried to commit suicide and confided in another one of my sisters that her father had done some inappropriate things to her when she was younger.

Anyway, even the legal system failed these little girls. He got four months in county jail and two years probation. Moved to Florida, where he no doubt continued his sicko shit.
