You could go decades being close to someone; be it a neighbor, doctor, co-worker, family member ... and then you find out that one of them is a sexual abuser of children.  If that person asks you to write a letter on their behalf in order to obtain leniency - what do you do?
You say "No.  Hell No!"
You don't sit there and think about the abuser and all of the good they've done in their life.  Hopefully you are a sane person because then you would think about and feel pain for the victim(s).  And a sane person would know just how twisted, screwed up and manipulative the abuser is and how they need the maximum punishment for hurting a child.  A sane person knows that there is no rehabilitation for sexual abusers of children.  None.
