a person wrongly accused is TERRIBLE thing and can be a violation in itself, for sure.
but, imo, the worst possible scenario is disbelieving a victim -- i still don't know why you would do this out of hand -- so that she grows into an emotionally unhealthy adult and the perpetrator gets away with it, free to repeat the act.

Problem with your theory is that your thought process tend to lock up an innocent people, which is the worst possible scenario.

Problem with your train of thought is, that most pedaphiles will take advantage of what you bring to light, that is that the child may be making the story up and in some cases thats true, but how many cases go un-reported and the pedaphile allowed to continue abusing children. At the the end of the day, every report must be investigated and I think your comment about lives being ruiend is a bit over the top.

we're not in court.
in general, in the real world, we should absolutely BEGIN with believing the child and moving forward, soberly, from there. to assume the child is NOT telling the truth sets up too many negatives in deference to one potential positive.

It seems that there's more evidence than just the child's word in this case. But most accusations of such are false. Certainly from a statistical standpoint it does not make sense to believe the child first. It is also not exactly compatible with our innocent-until-proven-guilty system. Children learn at some age that they have absolute power over adults if they make certain accusations. And while this case doesn't seem anything like that, certainly "your initial thought should be to believe the child" is a thinking process that will ruin a lot of innocent lives and protect no children.

MikeyTBC... your initial thought should be to believe the child. your thought process is why children keep sexual and physical abuse to themselves

Thanks for the info. I didn't see the paper today. Thats all I was asking. The rest of ya can go jump on someone else's case. I think there's a thread about a homeless person with a backpack sleeping in a BJ's cart near VVP.

Yes, your fishing for a reaction, because no one in their right mind would even think of putting a question like your out there.
Its obvious your not a parent, but a mere Troll!!!

Fishing for a reaction isn't my style, plenty of others here for that.
Just asking if any proof or evidence has been released? If she was handcuffs, wouldn't there be marks on her wrists from getting out etc?

Amazing, I've lived 2 blocks from this house for the past 10 years, and I've never seen this guy before. This will certainly be discussed at tonight's Village Neighborhood Association meeting in addition to our other topics. Meeting Agenda

This case: 12 year old girl lured off the street by neighbor perv who put her in handcuffs. Hofstra: college aged woman who willingly engaged with a group of guys and needed to come up with an excuse so her new boyfriend wouldn't think she was slutty. So, NO.

Given the recent Hofstra case, anyone think this might not be true or maybe exaggerated? Are you serious or just trying to provoke a reaction out of people? Either way, comparing this little girl to the Hofstra woman is just plain wrong.

The whole thing is just really, really scary and disturbing. I used to live just a few houses down from that guy. And the business with the mother/son is really Norman Bates.
What really scares me the most is that he will not spend that much time under lock and key. Thank God that the quick-thinking, brave little girl escaped this time, but when he gets out of jail there is a good chance that he will try something again and succeed. This will be especially true if his mother is not around to watch. People like Mr. Luigi should NEVER, EVER be let loose again. Or if he is set loose, he should have his arms and legs cut off so he can't grab or chase any more little girls.

I have known the Pandolfo family for many years. Luigi has been a reclusive hermit for well over a decade now. His father passed away a few years ago and his sister passed away 2 years ago (at the age of 33). Prior to his sister passing, she had expressed how they were not getting along and how angry he was with her. I heard that neighbors would hear him argue and yell at his mom all the time. My heart goes out to his mom because she buried her husband, then her daughter and has been at the very least verbally abused by her son. She is an older woman who barely speaks English and lives alone with her sick son. Now, she must face the fact that he has done this terrible thing to this poor girl.
My heart goes out to the poor girl and I hope that she finds the strenght to overcome such a horrific experience. I can only imagine what this experience has done to her. I pray for both her and her family in such a difficult time. As for Luigi, I hope they put him away for a really long time.
