Bingo. When there are enough people behind the victim pushing for an investigation then, and only then, will they take soft action. This action ( like the church ) involves just moving the predator to a different school or church. Doesn't fix the problem, just moves it away.

Local media ignores it. If the victims are lucky they get a little money to go away, if judge isn't a pedo / comped pos that is, OR they tie it up in court for a decade. Just part of why teachers union needs disbanded.
