When the discussion [in local Vermont media] on the convicted child molester devolves into primers on “groomers” versus “grabbers” it’s time to bring Jessica’s Law to Vermont. The disingenuousness is clear by those who have had issues with Judge Cashman as being soft on crime long before his so called “twenty five year” epiphany and long before the innocent child was repeatedly attacked in unspeakable ways. And why are we so concerned about the perpetrator and his rehabilitation? A twenty five year sentence would do well to keep him off the streets and playgrounds and, at the very least, give a modicum of peace of mind to the child who was, and is, his victim.
