I hope she doesn't start feeling sorry for this diagusting bastard...

Trauma is not an excuse for his actions

I can sympathize with him, but...how far does it go? Maybe their parents were sexually abused, as is often the case - does that excuse their actions? No. Rapists (etc.) are rapists, regardless of their histories. He needs both help and adequate punishment.

Anyway, this isn't really my cup of tea so I'm dropping it. Later~
