(This story is available on the print versions of the Columbus Dispatch, so I do not know if it is paywalled)

snip-"Fuentes is not believed to be biologically related to the 10-year-old girl but did have a relationship with her family.

Columbus police detective Jeffrey Huhn testified during Wednesday’s hearing that law enforcement does not believe that Fuentes is in the country legally. Huhn also testified that there was confusion about whether Gerson Fuentes was Fuentes’ actual name."

snip-"The Dispatch was not immediately able to confirm the country from which Fuentes arrived in the United States."

snip-" Huhn testified that Columbus police received a referral from FCCS on June 22 and that the referral included information from the child’s mother.

What if it had been "Kitten" (about 10 years of age) who was impregnated by the family handyman, Frank?

Would you want her to carry the baby to term?

FFS, it's a child having a child!!!

It's certainly her fault.

My pedophile father used to claim of ten year olds and his raping them, "...she led me into it." Seriously and in some circles, that was a valid blame the victim excuse that would let him off!

I'm okay, I think. He didn't get me, told him I'd kill him and he got the picture. Knowing about it wasn't cool but I wasn't the Lone Ranger. At least one in four females in this country experience some form of sex abuse by the time they are fifteen, probably more than that. I don't know one female 20+ who hasn't experienced an attempted or successful rape. It sucks but that's always been life for females in this country from what I've always known.

When you realize it's the actual reality of nearly half the population (I'm guessing here), you understand what a problem it really is. Children of any gender are not immune either, I'm just isolating an age group in my example but it by no means the scope of the problem relative to age.

snip-"Data shows frequency of reports of sexual abuse of children
An analysis of Columbus police reports filed since May 9 found 50 reports of rape or sexual abuse involving girls 15 years or younger. That number of reports may also be underreported because of restrictions on public records related to reports initiated by mandated reporters. The report involving the 10-year-old girl falls into that category."

This does not specify female or male rapes.

These are only the reported rapes. REPORTED RAPES ONLY Many women know that many rapes go unreported, I cannot estimate how many male child rapes there are. How many sexual assault & rapes are hushed up or not even known is impossible to estimate.

I feel sick thinking on this.
