      I do not think I will be following.  It is too close to home.  It will be all over the news here 24/7 and all sorts of stupid people, most of them reporters, will have something stupid to say about it.  The moment someone ill defines pedophilia I will be annoyed bordering on incensed.
      Good luck everyone. I get so tired with the fascination with the train wreck when the train wreck is in my own back yard and I can't get away from it.
