Is it still normal these days to have a "neighborhood pedophlle"?
When I was growing up in the 80s, there was an old Italian man across the street - we called him "Uncle Bill" - who was well-known among us kids to have shown his penis to the girls and got one of the poor kids to touch it. I'm sure he did a lot more but everything was hush hush... Parents knew and didn't do anything about it either. He never got arrested and everyone seemed to be friendly with him or at least tolerate his behavior. Would this ever happen nowadays?
