Subject: RE: BS: Clerical child abuse Part 94....
Smokey, unfortunately, that seems to be how child molesters are found. As far as I can tell, there is no way to predict that a person is going to be a child molester. The people you'd least suspect, are the most successful child molesters. It's only after the crime, that you know a person is a child molester.

Exactly my point, Joe, of course I don't have contrary evidence. Hence my stance on removal of opportunities being the most effective way to prevent abuse.

I think abusers or potential abusers are attracted to the job because of the opportunities and cover it provides.
