I have absolutely nothing productive to add simply because I am left dumbfounded by the actions of these people. Not only their actions, but their response to the media and their subsequent statements. I just don't, don't know. I actually cannot process what's happened to any logical or rational thought other than extreme anger and disillusionment with my fellow human beings.
There are still apologists for the clergy and everything we've learned there, so maybe I shouldn't be so surprised. But to hear the latest statement refer to the victim as the "so-called victim", it verges on anger overload that I regress to a catatonic state of rage.
I did some work for the KRCC a couple of years back, their work is fantastic and against the strongest odds and hindrences too. It's a small miracle that the case proceeded about let alone resulted in a conviction in the first place without this disgrace.
It's sad that no amount of media attention, facebook groups, radio phone-ins are going to change their minds. If the evidence put in front of the courts couldn't open their eyes, then nothing else will.
My only last thought is that if you think this right now is bad, wait until he's released. We all know he's going to get a "hero's" welcome.
