HOW COULD THESE PEOPLE BE SOOOOOOO SICK?

It seems that we're seeing more instances of children being sexually abused this year. I swear, since those terrible stories earlier this year of young girls being abducted and murdered, it seems like a virtual avalanche of similar or more unusual situations.

There is the story over the weekend of the eight year old girl reported abducted, but thankfully found alive...although buried in a recycling bin piled with rocks at an abandoned landfill. A 17 year old boy now faces life imprisonment for attempted murder, sexual battery of a child, and false imprisonment of a child. A Palm Beach County jury will determine if he will be tried as an adult.

And then there is this story out of Louisiana where nine people have been arrested in the case of a now-defunct church/cult whose pastor, wife, and other members reportedly had sexual relations with children and animals. And authorities there say that as many as a dozen more people could be involved! Not only that, but this case is getting more and more weird by the day. Seven of those arrested are being held with no bail as they are charged with capital offenses.

You've got to wonder how some people could be so sick as to abuse children like this.
