And I still can't believe a grown-ass man was keeping what were essentially diaries. What a clown.

I recall when he said his father was organized "to say the least" or something just like that. I thought it was telling that his father was a jackass. Otherwise Kav wouldn't have made that aside comment.

Thanks for telling the rest of the story. I don't know how the heck I missed it.

I think we also need to consider, and I'm not sure why this hasn't been that much, that back when he was in school he didn't write down exactly what was going on but rather the cover story just in case someone, like a parent, sibling or child, happened to read what was written in it.

Writings are easily dated and documented. I don't think they will do this, however.

with every month. What kind of a doctor does a 17 year old see that often? Psychologist?

Someone needs to investigate them too --- could he have gotten meds from them that could have been used to drug the girls?

Not kidding... this is literally the same BS that the birthers fell for when Obama first released his birth certificate.

new and/or low post count accounts (many of which were created years ago). There has been a big uptick within the last week.

Later in the thread, an expert steps up and explains that it is an artifact of PDF conversion. Also explains why Obama's birth certificate was wrongfully believed to be fake. Interesting stuff.
