Like I said earlier, there was a case of two young girls being sexually assaulted recently up here, and I’d been reading that in the papers just minutes before I went to the park. I guess it was still in the back of my mind, making me think hard about this incident, but so too was this newspaper report in the Glasgow Herald, one which is absolutley appalling.
You can’t get the full articles online from the Herald, but read this BBC Scotland report, and be sickened. It just shows that kids aren’t even safe with their own family and in their own home.

Nine years isn’t enough, with good behaviour the guy will be out in 5 or 6. It doesn’t matter a damn that this guy didn’t know his step-daughter was dying. It’s so heartbreaking, and though I don’t know all the medical details, you can’t rule out that this scum-bag might have actually contributed to her death by simply moving her.
