Sexual related crimes are oftin the hardest for victims to cope with. For the victim it is one of the most painful,confusing and even embarrassing ordeals they will live through.
For their family - it is a time of sadness and feeling helpless


If you , a family member , or loved one is on this side of the fence - please visit the following web sight for info that can be of help and encouragement to you....

Department of Justice

The other side of the fence is oftin over-looked by the justice system and by society in general
- Oftin the perpetrator has family and friends whom are shocked and embarrassed by what their loved one has done..
They also are victims of the crime yet in a different way.
This situation is made worse if the media becomes interested in the story
ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANOTHERS ACTIONS
They did the crime - not you
MANY CRIMINALS HIDE WHAT THEY DO FROM FAMILY MEMBERS
If you did not know - then do not allow anyone to make you feel guilty

In my own opinion - there is still another possible victim ...
The perpetrator

The perpetrator of sexual crimes is responsible for their actions - nothing changes that -
WE ARE ALL RESPONSIBLE FOR HOW WE USE OUR FREEWILL
BUT what causes one sibling to view things in a twisted way
When other siblings grow to be responsible adults?
What causes that difference?
Mental illness?
Demonic influences?
Society?
That is the one questian that I wish I could answer...
