Can you believe Teachers and police officers part of international pedophile ring?

Of all the people parents place in high positions to help us watch over our children and keep them safe, none ranks higher than teachers and police officers.  To learn that the two most entrusted positions are a part of an international child exploitation ring is nothing short of appealing.

According to Mike Corder of the Associated Press article titled Police say international pedophile ring smashed, this is truly the case.  Police said Wednesday they have smashed a huge international pedophile ring, rescuing 230 children from abuse and arresting 184 suspects — including teachers and police officers.”  “The three-year investigation codenamed Operation Rescue identified and safeguarded children in more than 30 countries by arresting people suspected of abusing them, said Rob Wainwright, director of the European Union police agency Europol.”  “The ring was centered on an Amsterdam-based online forum called boylover.net, which Wainwright described as "probably the largest online pedophile network in the world."  "Those who have been members of the site can expect a knock on the door in the very near future," he said. In Britain, police said, the children involved were aged between 7 and 14.”

In my humble opinion there is no excuse for this type of total disregard for the innocence of children and those responsible should be held to the toughest punishment available by law.  These children have had something much more precious taken from them that can never be replaced.  They have lost something that could never be found in any local grocery store or on Wall Street, they have lost the ability to shape their own destiny because of what occurred to them will always be the driving force behind who they become.  What’s so very surprising about all this is the lack of intense outrage from any parent or anyone hoping to become one.  The most trusted groups of human beings have not only damaged the others in that profession but have damaged those children which may place some way beyond repair.  They should not only be exposed for the monsters that they are but placed on display for all to see and have to forever live with the fact that their crimes crossed more than just international boundaries.
