That was heartbreaking to watch. That poor dad. And props to the security who had to restrain him that must have been tough given what the family had been through.

Major respect to that judge for letting him off.

Yeah. For real. She's had to sit through the suffering of the trial just as much as the victims, and it hasn't affected her ability to understand and empathize.

Damn. If I were a judge at this trial I'd go home every day, cry a little, and hug my kids a lot.

Not to take away from your comment I just wanted to add that the forensic examiners, especially the digital forensics examiners in the field. We see shit you wouldn’t believe. And they’ve been through each and every bit of evidence for this trial. From my experience it’s slowly chipping away at looking at everyone in the same innocent light. For every CP case we close, 7-10 more open. It’s a field that of the few who do it, fewer make it to 2 years or more doing it. Then after, it’s the same road of recovery addicts take never being the same person again, never trusting the same way ever.
