We took these children into our home to help, and shelter them. I tried my best to get these youngsters to go to the police so that we could have this criminal locked up, but they were too terrified to talk to the police. They thought they would be hurt if they spoke against the man who was molesting them. You can imagine what sort of power he had over them. I tried my best to encourage them to talk about their experiences.
Most psychologists agree it is best to talk in an open way.
But I really got frustrated with this one boy who refused to cooperate. He was being ungrateful. I was feeding him, and clothing him, and even letting him relax in the spa. He refused to talk against the man we wanted him to. The man was a very popular Methodist minister, he was also in a position where he was involved with a lot of children, he had a lot of community influence and was respected by all.
