Mournful molester case prompts rape law aid
In Los Angeles the mournful molester case informs a five part series on rape law and counseling. The suspect used a pistol and knots to subdue victims, then feigned remorse. He confessed to 150 rapes, served six years, and later faced 14 more counts after parole and UCLA rehab. The piece notes recidivism and a male dominated justice system as factors in sentencing.
