I was a partier and heavy drinker when I was 16. A person I worked for, who knew many rich people in the area, once told me that X (older male) has parties at the lake, that I could definitely get an invitation if I wanted and that I would be able to make some good money. As a male, my hormones have always been strictly focused on the female body so I had no interest. This was in deep red state territory. It is my belief that it is rampant EVERYWHERE. I can't even contemplate what is happening to the children coming over the border and other children in extremely vulnerable situations.

The pattern is even more obvious in the UK. Jimmy Savile only the highest profile case. Anyone interested can find dropped investigations and dead ends involving suspected crimes like these. There is a historical account which I have not read called the vice of kings. How do you wrap your head around this behavior? It must have to do with feeling special, that you can get away with something like this. Perhaps you’re led to feel superior to the herd, an insider. It’s hard for me to believe most people are naturally attracted to children. Perhaps desire can be manipulated. But getting away with it is likely the bigger thrill.
