Crime took place in 1991 and he’s just coming to trial???…must not be reading this story correctly. Doesn’t matter because again we have judge so concerned about the sexual predator that abducted and raped an innocent child. I’m a compassionate person but after reading so many stories about these horrific crimes against children, something gotta change.
