Moral: You just can't tell what a person is really like - and all speculation one way or the other is pointless until the trial starts and the facts for and against are brought out and weighed up

I second that. Some 20 years ago my son (then around 10) was friendly with a neighbour's girl of similar age. It got so she was never out of the house and if we went shopping she would be waiting on the doorstep for us. Frankly, it became rather a nuisance and we began to send her home quite firmly.

About a decade later her father was imprisoned for abusing her since that time and for years afterwards.

Maybe we were naïve, but it literally did not occur to us and we were shocked and horrified by that and our accidental contribution to the proceedings.
