That's always good to hear and you should pat yourself on the back. Getting these perverts off the street helps all of us.

I feel so sad for the children. So often, they are threatened by the perpetrator not to tell that they live in fear.
I suppose these children trusted me because I listened to them and reassured them that the bad person will never touch them again.
Having been in that situation myself I know how best to approach such an issue.
 

I got my driving license at age 17, in 1966. Fifty seven years later, I have yet to fill out an accident report. Over two million miles of accident free driving of cars, vans, transit buses, Ambulances, tractor trailers, and military tracked vehicles in all types of weather, here in Canada. I was a licensed driving instructor/examiner for Metro Toronto Ambulance for 6 years. Every person who was hired by the department had to pass my driving testing before they could drive any department vehicle. I failed some people because they were not capable of driving properly, despite the fact that they were medically qualified as a Paramedic. Jimb.

Such a great achievement over a long stretch of time. Well done Jim.

What I always heard about child molesters was that they can't be fixed or cured. If that is the case, I would consider bringing back the chain gangs. Why should they sit in a jail cell or have a 4 hour word detail in the prison and being paid whatever it is now. The last I heard the were given .65 cents per hour. I'm sure it is higher today. Maybe .70 cents.

I have had three child molesters imprisoned over a period of 20 years.
The children were comfortable enough with me to tell me someone was ******ly molesting them.
All three of the perpetrators were related to the children.

Well done. (y)
Myself... I'm more inclined to lean toward a death penalty (provided it happens quick). Or, there is always a second option. (snip, snip)

My greatest accomplishments...
Most certainly our children and even
more importantly, the gentle nfluences
I have had on their lives...which... are
now being carried over in the
lives of the grandchildren.
