I keep hearing about their show being pulled out, but when will charges be pressed against him?? Why the delay? He is an admitted child molester and needs to be locked up!

I was answering your question, not agreeing with the law.

After years on television with fame and fortune, simultaneously living a double life of humiliation and abuse, now they are not on television and the double-life-secret is out.
Now it's another kind of double life...now everyone knows and they have to act like they are OK. God bless the little ones. This is why DPS often does not even much bother...there is little they can do but stir things up to make it worse for the kids. But usually it's not front page news, either.
This is a tough one.
