FROM HIS PERSPECTIVE. He describes his background prior to the abuse and how the sexual abuse developed, and the ways he molested them. The offender talks about how there were times when various family members were in the same room or house while he was molesting the children. He also disclosed that at one point, one of the victims did tell her parents and how was able to get around it by spinning the situation to the point that the child was again allowed to be around him and he was able to continue sexually abusing her. Additionally, his wife at the time had some level of knowledge and did nothing to protect these children. He discusses how he eventually got caught and the consequences that he faced.
