Update - Stepfather pleads to child molestation charges. Need advice.

The point I am trying to make is that the real world threat that the BF’s children are in imminent danger of molestation needs to be assessed with some degree of common sense. The stepfather sounds like a world class SOB but the risk distinction between him (hypothetically) getting drunk and fingering a nubile 14 year old he was unfamiliar with vs seducing a known minor is fairly important in assessing wheter he’s going to be considered a true predatory threat to the kids.

From one of the earlier threads:

@nyctea scandiaca

Stepfather was recently arrested on child molestation charges - the alleged victim is the 14-year-old daughter of Mother and Stepfather’s friend.

So this sounds more like “seducing” or abusing a known minor, and one who is the same age as one of Greg’s children.

About how we found out about the charges against Stepfather: The Mother did not tell my boyfriend (the children’s father) about the charges. We discovered it in the crime section of a local newspaper, which described his arrest and the charges against him. We found the article after we Googled Suspect/Stepfather’s name. You may be wondering, why did we Google his name? Well, call it a hunch or intuition… The children’s mother was acting strange, and the kids were acting moody and sullen, and we had a hunch that something was going on in the home. Knowing that the mother has a long history of being secretive, dishonest, and not forthcoming, we Googled the guy’s name and found this bombshell. The scary thing is that if we hadn’t found out ourselves, the mother would have undoubtedly NEVER had told us about it.

I’m not a parent, but to me, it’s pretty obvious Greg needs to try to get his kids, and not leave them in a situation where things could get worse either through being around this convicted dirtball, or with the wife who is covering for him.
