I have heard that some of the worst abusers are those who were abused. I don't buy that as any excuse though. I can have some tolerance for someone who knew nothing else but abuse but nobody else gets a pass. Most people know damn well what they are doing.
People who are cognitively or psychologically impaired may or may not. I'm no expert, but I think there is a possibility of this. I'm not saying it is the most prevalent, but that there would be some cases and these people may not have fucked up if they had had adequate support early on.
Do sex offenders deserve a second chance?

I'm not sure I agree with "most" people, but I have no doubt that there are many who do fall into that category.
