Beyond Merely Despicable
A recent story out of Penticton, British Columbia is enough to make any sane, decent individual grit their teeth with disbelieving anger.
Bad enough that young girls are preyed upon, that women and girls must be alert to ensure that they are in a safe environment, being careful that they are not exposed to danger from predators. How horrible it must be for young girls whose fathers prey on them. And do so with the intention of using their daughters as prostitutes, then availing themselves of the earnings.
That some individuals could resort to such atrociously disgusting tactics is beyond belief.
The very thought of a young girl living such an utterly degraded life, leaving her with no childhood worth recalling, with the certain knowledge that she was never loved, valued and protected from harm by her parents, and with the overwhelming thought that she is worthless as a human being, must be a life-crushing experience.
The 46-year-old father, unnamed to protect his daughter from public disclosure and shame, has been charged with three counts of sexual assault, two counts of sexual interference, two counts of living on the avails of prostitution, one count of sexual exploitation, and one count of a parent or guardian procuring sexual activity. He has been a target of an RCMP investigation since May.
And three other men whose ages are 34, 63 and 67 have also been arrested. On suspicion of having received sexual services from the girl. In other words, three mature men saw fit to have sex with an underage child.
Their defence predictably enough; that they were under the impression she was older than she appeared. Which is some defence, on the face of it. Men aged 34, 63 and 67 having no more common sense and decency than to engage in sexual relations with a girl child.
The oldest of these disgusting perverts has been named. As he should be, since he is a candidate for the mayor's office of the city. Benny Wolfe explained he had met the girl and her father at a bus-stop, asked the girl's age, and was assured she was legally of age.
A man old enough to be the girl's grandfather, noting her youth, seeking assurance she was legally 'available'. "She was reasonable, $100 for an hour of her time", he commented.
And he still plans to run for the mayor's chair come the fall. It's a pity that the old method of a town expressing its displeasure with townsfolk who outraged public decency is no longer in vogue; he at least should be tarred and feathered and run out of town.
The unfortunate girl's father should be incarcerated for a very long period of time.
And the girl, what will become of a disconsolate child who realizes that she has been valued by her father only for the potential of requiring her to take part in degraded acts of predation by sociopaths, to satisfy her father's demands that she earn a living for him as a pimp.
Police, while not divulging her identity, have expressed the opinion that she has demonstrated great "resiliency and strength" ... both of which she will require in abundance to make a new life for herself.
