I'm wondering if this young man turned himself in because he already knew the assault was going to be made public? But, if he really does have remorse for his crime and wants to get help, I do hope that someone in the system knows how to get this young man the appropriote help.

This is my guess! This guy seems to feel remorse so he turns himself in and will probably get like 15 years. But a registered pedophile who gets caught a second time will probably get 6 years. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Wow, that seems like you are giving the justice system way too much credit. Either that or you are being hopeful.

If he confessed to his pastor, the pastor by law is obligated to report it. He probably convinced this young man to turn himself in and went along for support. Just speculating, of course, but I hope this young man is able to receive professional help. At least he has a conscience about something he knows is wrong, and confessed after one incident, rather than getting caught red-handed after molesting a dozen.

Daily Horoscope for December 26

Leo

Despite the festivities, something is nagging away at the back of your mind and you won't feel happy until you've done something about it. Do your best to tackle it over the next three weeks while it will benefit from the influence of Mercury backtracking through your sixth house. Your daily routine is filled with an increasing number of details, messages, and information, much of which will be confusing. All you can do is change your attitude to whatever is worrying you.
