I find this story really suspect and pretty damned creepy especially as it's published by NBC.

They mixed in "credibly accused" (whatever that means) with the convicted to produce an overall picture that gives an entirely false picture.

Maybe they were asleep when the notorious fantasist Carl Beech claimed all sorts of things happened and that a top Detective said it was "credible and true" (whatever happened to him?..doing Zebra Crossing duty outside the local school?)

AND WTF is this "near playgrounds" claptrap? Do people really think a real predator is not capable of traveling a few miles to find a victim?

Almost 1,700 priests and clergy accused of sex abuse are unsupervised
An Associated Press investigation found that those credibly accused are now teachers, coaches, counselors and also live near playgrounds.

Love this Hedda. "Credibly accused" indeed! Humanity has deteriorated as fast as it has superficialised.
