    almost a daily occurrence in paterson. I can't even begin to understand how,why, anyone would do this to a child.We are supposed to protect children.What is wrong with these scum?There are plenty of adults to find a relationship with,yet they chose to harm the most vulnerable. It's gotten to the point that a severe action must be taken as a deterrent. Mandatory castration on top of jail might be a good start.
