Also, the drug epidemic, crime epidemic, warmongering, hate crimes, violent crimes, molestation epidemic, rapists, abusers, addictions, stem from the same problem --> Lack of love/disconnect from their TRUE SELVES. We're all in this TOGETHER, as ONE (literally). The sooner we realize this, the sooner we can evolve. It would be nearly impossible to believe nowadays that we are ALL spirits in physical bodies if it weren't for the power of love. Thank you @ScottSpideralamode.
@ScottSpideralamode You are a hero. As kids, we're taught that monsters are these gargoyle/furry/horned type creatures, but the scariest and most dangerous kinds are the ones in a plain T-shirt/jeans or a business suit. Clearly you have infinite strength of spirit and ability to love to still be able to let flowers grow in your heart. THERE IS NO LIMIT TO WHAT A PERSON WILL ALLOW THEMSELVES TO DO ONCE THEY DIVORCE THEMSELVES OF LOVE. Thank you for choosing love. Hugs to u now and u at 12! -Judy
@blueskyhombre Thank you, Judy! I have been SO blessed to have SO many wonderful people contact me through YouTube & Facebook... The ones who are parents of young children are the ones that concern me the most.
In regards to the MOTHERS, I would encourage them to read your reply about the description of monsters. Thankfully, nowadays, we have the internet,
In regards to the FATHERS: I have a kid brother serving Life Without Parole in prison. While visiting him, he pointed out several
@ScottSpideralamode MOTHERS: which will provide photos and descriptions of REAL monsters!! Thanks to the MEGAN'S LAW WEBSITE. I would ask parents to take their children there and spend a couple hours showing children that the monsters exist but do NOT have horns...
FATHERS: "heroes" that took actions against the person who harmed their child. PLEASE THINK BEFORE YOU REACT. DON'T TAKE YOUR CHILD'S FATHER AWAY FROM THEM!! Prisons are full of men who made that mistake, ASK MY BROTHER. As hard as
@ScottSpideralamode it may be to maintain self control, DO SO. Don't make your child regret telling you what happened! If you end up in prison (MOTHERS, YOU TOO!) you've now taken the person who that child loves more than anything away from them. I can PROMISE you that, in prison, the "heroes" that harm or kill their childs attackers are only "heroes" until the next "hero" arrives. Then, he or she is just another convict serving time in prison away from his or her family.
Proud of you Scott ! This is my 2nd youtube comment ! I'm not a person who watch these kinda videos but somehow I clicked it n watched it to the end ! =/ didn't the police arrest that guy ? =\
@gasta666 Thank you. When I went to the police, they sent an officer out to get my statement and take a report. He told me that he had to confirm, but he was sure that the laws pertaining to the statute of limitations weren't in effect when this happened. Because it happened prior to 1988, there was nothing he could do to legally charge him. If I had ANYONE to corroborate my story, then we could have a case. I went to the Boy Scouts of America (he told me that he was an Assistant Scout
@ScottSpideralamode Master, and had done things with scouts in his troop). I was NOT in his troop, just a victim that he met in an arcade. I thought maybe the Scouts could contact men who were scouts under his supervision and ask some of them if they were ever molested by him, but the Boy Scouts of America didn't really do much of anything that I know of. I don't know for sure, but I think that they just want it to go away, like the Catholic Church. If I were to name him publicly, because
@ScottSpideralamode he has never been arrested (that I've been able to tell... he's not a registered sex offender), I would think that I would be at risk of a slander law suit. I've dreamed of the day that I would shove a 9mm down his throat after cutting his dick off, but, because I have a kid brother doing life without parole, he taught me to consider the love of my daughter and my mother BEFORE I react and kill the worthless, good-for-nothing, rat bastard, pedophile.
@97YukonGirl Thank you. I believe your message of love, I really do. I hope that, when another victim reads your post, they will feel the love in it, and it will help them start to heal their troubled lives. Maybe they will feel the urge to do something brave. Reach out. Talk to someone. Ask for help. Just because you sent your love. Thank you!
@EricaNeurotic Isn't it incredible? I'm telling you, Erica, if you hadn't insisted that I get off my ass and do something when I told you that the reason why I hadn't gone to the police yet was because I was enjoying the pleasure of knowing that HE now has to wake up EVERY morning and wonder... Is today the day? Is he gonna get me or am I gonna be arrested? If you hadn't encouraged me to call the police to try to stop him from hurting anyone else, I may not have made this video. Thank you. <3
@1adios Your sharing & forwarding this message is JUST AS IMPORTANT as my making the video. I originally made the video with no music track, and it sat for 2 weeks with only 3 hits, 2 of them were from me. It takes YOU (and a LOT of others just like you) to share and forward or else it just sits there. Thank you for doing your part too.
I´m sooo sorry :`( ...but you´re not a coward it´s the other way around you´re STRONG,will always remember your little secret,that so was a STRONG thing to do,helping others in the same situation Love ♥ Rose-Marie
@zonyaztina Thank YOU, Rose-Marie. Love is what victims need. When I think of how alone a victim feels at times... it saddens me. Now, with the help of media like this, they can see, right in front of them, that the whole world is supportive of them! If they don't want to talk to a loved one, then talk to someone on here! Talk to YOU! Thank you for being the type of person to take a moment to just speak a few kind words. That may be all that a victim needs to read to believe.
Thank you for speaking out. It is so incredibly important. It brings me to tears that you had to feel like that for so long. I pray that this video will inspire many young people and kids to share their "secret" and heal.
@cothromcirt With your kind words, how could it not help for victims who watch the video and read the replies (like yours) to know that it's ok to talk about? Thank YOU for doing YOUR part! Please feel free to SHARE this video on facebook or anywhere that someone who suffers might start to see a light at the end of the darkness that they've had to endure!!
....@EricaNeurotic .......im o sorry you went thru this, i truly am....this also happened to me wen i was very young and thanks to my mom i was able to tell and put him away . Thank you for your bravery and love your dad more than ever you noth need each other right now and alot of of love!
...to avoid ever having to leave them alone somewhere, im overprotective yes, bhg i think all parents should be since their are so many of these demons out there now! Thanks again Spider and tell ur daughter she did great by telling and i hope those men who did that to her are rotting in jail as we speak...having the same done to them! Oh....and you should really post his whole name for everyone to see!!!
@dnjrdgz I cannot post the name of the man who did this to me. As he has never been arrested for being the pedophile that he is, I believe that he could probably, in turn, have me arrested for slander as it is only my word against his. I went to the Boy Scouts of America, asked them to find out the names of the men who were boys that he molested. Sadly, because they haven't replied back, I feel like the Boy Scouts are just like the Catholic Church. Don't say a word and it didn't happen.
thank you for this video! like everyone has told you, this video will help alot of young kids and adults to to speak out! These monsters control their victims by keeping them quiet...once you speak up they lose the hold they have on you and you also help others from falling vjctims to them also. I constantly talk to my daughters about this topic and i have never worked since they were born just to...
@dnjrdgz I reflect on what my childhood was like before the times changed. We used to have SO much fun riding our bikes EVERYWHERE. Nowadays, kids can't ride their bikes out of earshot of their parents. Everyone is afraid of "them" getting to their kids. What a sad, terribly sad time for mankind. I don't wish to feed the fear, but just know that, even with our keeping such a close eye on our child, she was STILL confronted several times. I'm worried about my future grandkids now... :-(
@1adios Thank you. It was SUCH a load of weight off my shoulders JUST to say it out loud. I hope that EVERYONE hits the "SHARE" button and the one person who has been living their life with this burden, just reaches out and speaks the words aloud to someone. Let them be brave! Thank YOU for letting them know, by YOUR words, that it's ok to do such a thing!
it takes great courage to do what you did, but I know this will help many who this has happened to. It's so hard when you have children, always being scared this could happen to them! I'm so sorry this happened to you and I know that man will pay dearly for what he has done. You're amazing for posting this!!!!!
@cnliz I am gonna repeat what I've said over & over again to people, like you, who have taken the time to reply with such supportive words. It's YOU who are making an impact! All those years, it was YOU who I was afraid of telling! Then, when you found out, you replied like this!! YOU make the difference with what the victims of sexual abuse will be reading when they watch this. They'll know that it's ok to reach out and talk to YOU about this. THANK YOU.
@cbrrick36 Thank YOU, cbrrick. Just the fact that you replied with such positive words is EXACTLY what someone who has experience this tragedy NEEDS to read! We go through our lives thinking ALL THE WRONG THINGS. Your reply let's all victims know that people are sympathetic to this, NOT judgmental or out to embarrass.
I críed through half of your video! This is the most powerful use of the internet that i have ever seen! Thank you so much for sharing! I will keep you and your family in my prayers! I believe evil men like Ed get their punishment served when its time. May you find the peace that you seek.
@MOORECHERYL Thank you, Cheryl. I hope that he lives every day of the rest of his life, wondering when someone he did this to is gonna knock on his door. Afraid to go anywhere. Afraid to talk to anyone. There are SO many victims out there that are afraid, as I was, to talk to someone. To let anyone find out. This is helping me find that peace that you mentioned!
Id like to ask you if its ok to post this on my facebook page. Your bravery should be seen by all those that may need your strength. In my opinion and with your permission. Id also like to say how much strength and wisdom you have to not take vengeance upon the thing that did this to you.
@mrmikesims Of COURSE you can post this ANYWHERE you like. By doing so, I hope & pray that there is some young person on the edge somewhere, about to give up, who takes a moment to read this! Maybe, by YOUR posting it, that one person will get the message!?!? Who knows?!! I don't want this to be an ego thing for me, I'm POSITIVE that it's because YOU shared it that it helped someone. Thank YOU!
@mrmikesims In regards to the "taking vengeance" part, well... That has been a part of my dreams & thoughts since it occurred. I have, for years, dreamed of what, not just killing the guy would be like, but torturing him. Over & over & over again. I REALLY wanted to spend weeks forcing him to live in excruciating pain... I could go on & on, but I now feel like a psycho! LOL I don't want such hate in my head or my heart. I just want to be free of the weight of what his actions did.
@laceelev Thank you for your that. I also appreciate that you called me Spider, as I said "My friends call me SPIDER" in the video. I feel like I have another friend!
@mrmikesims Thank you, MrMikeSims. It's positive feedback like yours that will make victims who watch this video truly believe that it is ok to talk to someone about their horror.
Thank you for making this video Spider. You look very familiar. I think we have met at some time. I have always lived in the OC area. You are a very brave and courageous man for making this video. I plan on posting this to my Facebook page if you don't mind. I think this is a very important video you have created. Keep up the good work. Peace.
@SpudgeBoy I don't mind at ALL, my friend. In fact, by doing so, you're also very brave and helping this to reach someone who needs to know that we all care about them.
Okay, I have streams rolling down my cheeks! I am also a victim of both molestation and rape. I know the feeling of wanting to end my life and I'm so glad I didn't. I now have a beautiful daughter (6 years old) who is the love of my life as well. If I had taken my life, I wouldn't have had her or even have a relationship with God either. I'm so glad that you found a way to cope though, and am ultimately excited that you can tell the world about your "secret". Keep on going Spider! Much love!
@patriciakampman Hi Patricia, I'm SO happy that you found that your life IS worth living. I'm sorry that you had to go through what you went through. You're now a happy, wonderful mother and your daughter is blessed that you're alive and taking care of her. Thank you for helping me to get this message out!
@snowstar08 Thank you, snowstar. I'm happy that I failed at the attempts, too, although I had NOTHING to do with the success. One time, my drug connection actually called 911 and told them that he thought I was suicidal, just by my actions when I went to get the drugs from him... I know now that I'm not in control of ANYTHING. You're amazing too!
@abhay733 Thank you for your feedback on my video! I too, hope that the evil ends. Wouldn't that be wonderful! I thank you too, by leaving such nice feedback, you're letting victims of this horror know that it's ok to talk about it! So, thank YOU too!
Vitally important video! Brave soul! I too, am a victim. In the '50s, so much was taboo for discussion. No warnings about predators 'cept be careful of kidnappers. In retrospect, don't think my parents thought anyone could be so perverse as to molest a child. As a parent I was annoyingly vigilant. I decided I wasn't their friend, I was their protector. Problem is I can't undo the damage - I don't think we ever "get over it"- but we CAN warn others. Thanks Scott blessed you for your bravery.
@audramama I'm sorry that you had to go through the horror too... It's amazing how many people there are that have had to endure the trauma of child molestation... I hope that you were able to get your pedophile thrown in prison where they ALL belong!!
Obviously by posting this video, you are NOT a coward. I'm sorry for the hurt that you & your loved ones experienced in keeping this secret. My jaw dropped when you told of your daughter's interactions. I'm so afraid of someone hurting my innocent children, too. I have taught them that there are no secrets from Mommy & Daddy. And also that we love them unconditionally. We also keep them off the internet. Anything else you can suggest??
@bkcwzy Ok... I was trying to reply to you from a different page, but I finally got here! LOL First of all, thank you for your kind reply. When my daughter had her first encounter, the man that lived behind us exposed himself to her. When I home from work, my wife was SO STRESSED. When I asked her what was wrong, she broke down crying because she COULDN'T tell me. She WANTED to, NEEDED to, but COULDN'T because she knew what my reaction would have been. She was SO scared that I was gonna
@bkcwzy just walk back there and flat out kill the guy. She was right. She was SO MUCH WISER than I have ever been. She made me promise to her that I wouldn't react MY WAY. I had to promise her or she couldn't tell me. So I promised. Thank GOD I did! I would STILL be in prison! My brother is in prison with MANY parents who just reacted. If, GOD FORBID, anything ever does happen, don't allow your pain & anger to overtake you when your child needs you the most! I don't know how old your
@bkcwzy kids are, but kids are smart! Take them to meganslaw.ca.gov and show them what monsters REALLY look like. I don't enjoy having to live in fear, but more importantly is making sure our kids are SAFE from pedophiles. I talked with my daughter Erica ALL THE TIME about Sex, Drugs, Alcohol, God, Sin, Rape, Crime, Homosexuality, Baby-making, etc. NO TABOO TOPICS. She knew that she could talk to me about ANYTHING AT ALL. I hope that I was able to help! Please "share" the video on FB, OK?
@ScottSpideralamode Thank you for your reply! And that sounds like very wise advice to not act in pain & anger. Our little ones are 6, 5, & 4 so thankfully we can still very easily censor everything. But yes, they are very smart. Thank you again for being courageous enough to share. =]
You are very courageous! Intense/emotional vid. I kept a similar secret for 21 years. only spoke of it once to my mother & many times to friends. I had bad dreams of the person & thought they were just dreams. Until I found proof and that was the day I told my mom. The person was 91 yrs old by that time and I felt there was no reason to bring it to his wife or anyone else. made my mother swear to keep it a secret. I think you are a hero and thank you for sharing your secret with us! God Bless
@melshoeyork Thank you for your words, Mel. Gosh I don't like to allow my head to hear that word "Hero" too much! I can SO easily allow my ego to take over and RUIN this SO fast... But, I understand what your intentions were, so that makes it a bit easier. I'm amazed at how many people have had to endure what you & I did! It's horrific.
Just watched your video Scott.....Im just a few years younger, also live in Orange County.....sad you had to deal with that crap for so long, but Praise God that you have been able to share your secret and heal. Im a therapist, and have worked with many abuse victims.....and a mom to young kids....I plan on sharing your video...thank you for making it. Im also THRILLED That you did your best to identify Edgar R _ _ _ _ _ in Santa Barbara...who does airbrushing!! God bless U Scott!
My name is jason. I'm holding my neice in my profile picture. Of course I won't do anything to him, or anyone else. Id really love to, but I know id never get away with it. Id like to meet you someday. You seem like a really cool guy.
@satyricon0227 I'm usually out at Cook's Corner in Trabuco Canyon on Saturdays & on Ortega Highway on Sundays photographing bikers for my website. I'd enjoy meeting you someday soon, too!
Scott..... ahhhhh.... GGPD...... those guys are pretty fair and good workers... you can follow up with Santa Barbara PD too..... and you could contact someone about a civil suit to see if the time frame is up.... have you gotten therapy yet??? I am sure it would do you wonders... make sure you find someone who specializes in adults molested as minors.....
@kiksterlove99 or tell a teacher when you go to school on Monday...... you need to tell someone other than us...... they can get you help...... or tell me what area you live in and I will get you a number to call.....
@kiksterlove99 Watch the video with your parents! Tell them that YOU have a SECRET. Make sure that your parents PROMISE TO NOT REACT IN ANGER OR HURT!!! That is VERY important!! They MUST stay calm and you all can get through it together! I don't know you, but if you feel you can't trust your parents, find SOMEONE you can trust!! I'll ALWAYS be here for you to talk to too!! Don't do what I did... It was horrible. I miss my family terribly. I'm VERY loved, but lonely. YOU CAN DO IT.
awww... Scott.... you told in your time.... you are survivor.... now you need to heal.... and forgive yourself for not telling..... I am sorry the police didn't do anything... have you searched to see if he was ever arrested?? or if he has current contact with children?? if he has current contact they can investigate at risk allegations to the children......most important thing to do is to forgive yourself.... and know that you did what most 12 yr old boys would do....
@iiceeee Hello! Thanks for your words! I have spoken with the investigator for the Garden Grove Police Department, (that is where the offense occurred) and he told me that he alerted the Santa Barbara PD and let them know about him. I checked the sexual predator websites, and he wasn't listed. I called the Boy Scouts of America to let them know that he told me that he was an Assistant Scoutmaster and that he had done this with scouts, but they haven't followed up with me. This is my therapy!
Please share and watch. It names a predator that is still out there molesting children. Maybe others whom have been or still are being used by this guy will speak up and we can get Ed R_ _ _ _ _ from Santa Barbara whom does airbrushing off the streets and locked away where he belongs.
@sobarraza Thank you for your help! I appreciate every little thing that is done to prevent ANY child of ANY age from having to go through decades of this! My brother is serving time in prison. If this guy ends up in prison, my brother will find out about it and it will be handled by men who have nothing to lose...
Awsome job! The courage this took must have felt like chains being broken! I was molested 3 times as a child myself! I too kept my secrets for many years! I hope your video frees many others!! Pick up your sax now! I bet you'll be even better today, your passion will flow through your music !!!!
@Roxie2288 Thanks, Roxie! I'm working towards one day buying another sax... Maybe someday soon... I hope the video helps others also. In fact, I already am praying for the one who is in need of its message.
it does take courage to speak out. the years of which you speak of are some of the darkest where this very subject, was simply pushed down. I'm so happy for you and you courageous effort. my heart is broken for you for the weight you have had to carry. my soul prayed through out the entire video for your peace. many blessings to you, and thank you
@kyQueen79 The weight is already lifted and transferred to the sick bastard that betrayed my trust. Even though I can't press charges, he knows that the police know. God forbid, but if he's done it recently, maybe, if enough people view & share this video, his recent victim will see this and contact me. Then I'll have ammunition to take him out. Thank you for your words & prayers!!
This took a lot of courage and I thank Bryan for sharing this. I wish I had half the balls you do and could even talk about what happened to me with just one person.
@Scatterspell I'm here to listen anytime. I can tell you that as soon as I said the words outloud, the load got lighter. I used to think that I'd be embarrassed if anyone found out... now, all I care about is trying to keep another kid from this. You're welcome to do the same!!
Bravo for sharing! The 60's and 70's where so different many lived with this dirty little secret! No reason any child should have to hide the shame. Talk to children, protect them, they really don't need that much freedom! Watch them, love them, and listen to them!
@sainzgoff THAT is what it's all about. The kids. Stop it before it happens. If, God Forbid, it does happen, make sure your children know that it's ok to talk to you about it. PLEASE! Don't take matters into your own hands!! That's all I would've needed is to think that my parents are in prison because I couldn't keep a "secret". Be GOOD PARENTS, not a vigilante.
If I were rich enough so as not not have to worry about money,so I didn't have to work. and if I could get away with it, id make my past time hunting down child predators , molesters, and the like, anyone having anything to do with harming children. Id find ways to savage, humiliate, beat them torture them...ect....
Dude! You are not a coward. You are a brave man who just put his secret out to the world. That takes guts man! I saw this vid on a link on my friend bryan "ogre" po____'s facebook page. Id love a chance to go up to see "ed" so I could beat some sense into him, or even just whip his ass. To do that to a child is unspeakable and utterly deplorable.
@satyricon0227 Thanks for the great feedback on my video. I would hope that you would take a moment to think before you do something like that. It isn't like it used to be... Where you can just find a guy who did something to a child and rip his fucking head from his shoulders. Nope. You do something, you go to prison for the rest of your life. If you have children, now they don't have a father. There are NO HEROES in prison. My kid brother is doing life without parole. Let me offer you
@satyricon0227 his address. He can tell you all about the men he is serving time with who miss out on being there when their kids need them. How they long for the touch of their wives, just ONCE more. If they had only taken a moment to think first... Don't do what all of us want to do. Please. Don't do it.
You are NOT a coward! This BRAVE thing you've done, if it reaches only ONE child going through this and helps them tell someone, is amazing!!! I grew up in the same area, Anaheim, and am 4 yrs older than you. Went to Katella, and hung out out the City. So this affected me even more due to that. Tears running down my face Spider, for that poor 12 yr old boy, and what that MONSTER did to you and your life. ML&R brother. I hope and pray doing this helped to relieve your horrible burden!!!
@bikerladycj57 Thank you! I was wondering if anyone remembered The City! Seems like a million years ago now... And it does help thinking that someone may benefit from this!
@jennsantry Thank you for your kind words, Jenn. I'm hoping that this act will help someone someday and, who knows, maybe someone else knows "Edgar" and he'll get his justice someday soon...
Hey brother, this was a very courageous thing to do and I sure hope it helps someone else do something sooner and not carry the weight of someone else's evil doing for so long. I also hope making this video also gives you some peace of mind knowing you will be helping many others... Love ya bro...
Also, the drug epidemic, crime epidemic, warmongering, hate crimes, violent crimes, molestation epidemic, rapists, abusers, addictions, stem from the same problem --> Lack of love/disconnect from their TRUE SELVES. We're all in this TOGETHER, as ONE (literally). The sooner we realize this, the sooner we can evolve. It would be nearly impossible to believe nowadays that we are ALL spirits in physical bodies if it weren't for the power of love. Thank you @ScottSpideralamode.

@ScottSpideralamode it may be to maintain self control, DO SO. Don't make your child regret telling you what happened! If you end up in prison (MOTHERS, YOU TOO!) you've now taken the person who that child loves more than anything away from them. I can PROMISE you that, in prison, the "heroes" that harm or kill their childs attackers are only "heroes" until the next "hero" arrives. Then, he or she is just another convict serving time in prison away from his or her family.

@zonyaztina Thank YOU, Rose-Marie. Love is what victims need. When I think of how alone a victim feels at times... it saddens me. Now, with the help of media like this, they can see, right in front of them, that the whole world is supportive of them! If they don't want to talk to a loved one, then talk to someone on here! Talk to YOU! Thank you for being the type of person to take a moment to just speak a few kind words. That may be all that a victim needs to read to believe.

Thanks again Spider and tell ur daughter she did great by telling and i hope those men who did that to her are rotting in jail as we speak...having the same done to them! Oh....and you should really post his whole name for everyone to see!!!
dnjrdgz 1 month ago 2
@dnjrdgz I cannot post the name of the man who did this to me. As he has never been arrested for being the pedophile that he is, I believe that he could probably, in turn, have me arrested for slander as it is only my word against his. I went to the Boy Scouts of America, asked them to find out the names of the men who were boys that he molested. Sadly, because they haven't replied back, I feel like the Boy Scouts are just like the Catholic Church. Don't say a word and it didn't happen.

These monsters control their victims by keeping them quiet...once you speak up they lose the hold they have on you and you also help others from falling vjctims to them also. I constantly talk to my daughters about this topic and i have never worked since they were born just to...

@dnjrdgz I reflect on what my childhood was like before the times changed. We used to have SO much fun riding our bikes EVERYWHERE. Nowadays, kids can't ride their bikes out of earshot of their parents. Everyone is afraid of "them" getting to their kids. What a sad, terribly sad time for mankind. I don't wish to feed the fear, but just know that, even with our keeping such a close eye on our child, she was STILL confronted several times. I'm worried about my future grandkids now... :-(

@mrmikesims Of COURSE you can post this ANYWHERE you like. By doing so, I hope & pray that there is some young person on the edge somewhere, about to give up, who takes a moment to read this!

Thank YOU!
ScottSpideralamode 1 month ago
@mrmikesims In regards to the "taking vengeance" part, well... That has been a part of my dreams & thoughts since it occurred. I have, for years, dreamed of what, not just killing the guy would be like, but torturing him. Over & over & over again. I REALLY wanted to spend weeks forcing him to live in excruciating pain... I could go on & on, but I now feel like a psycho! LOL I don't want such hate in my head or my heart. I just want to be free of the weight of what his actions did.

Okay, I have streams rolling down my cheeks! I am also a victim of both molestation and rape. I know the feeling of wanting to end my life and I'm so glad I didn't. I now have a beautiful daughter (6 years old) who is the love of my life as well. If I had taken my life, I wouldn't have had her or even have a relationship with God either. I'm so glad that you found a way to cope though, and am ultimately excited that you can tell the world about your "secret". Keep on going Spider! Much love!

Vitally important video! Brave soul! I too, am a victim. In the '50s, so much was taboo for discussion. No warnings about predators 'cept be careful of kidnappers. In retrospect, don't think my parents thought anyone could be so perverse as to molest a child. As a parent I was annoyingly vigilant. I decided I wasn't their friend, I was their protector. Problem is I can't undo the damage - I don't think we ever "get over it"- but we CAN warn others. Thanks Scott blessed you for your bravery.

Obviously by posting this video, you are NOT a coward. I'm sorry for the hurt that you & your loved ones experienced in keeping this secret. My jaw dropped when you told of your daughter's interactions. I'm so afraid of someone hurting my innocent children, too. I have taught them that there are no secrets from Mommy & Daddy. And also that we love them unconditionally. We also keep them off the internet. Anything else you can suggest??

When my daughter had her first encounter, the man that lived behind us exposed himself to her. When I home from work, my wife was SO STRESSED. When I asked her what was wrong, she broke down crying because she COULDN'T tell me. She WANTED to, NEEDED to, but COULDN'T because she knew what my reaction would have been.

@bkcwzy kids are, but kids are smart! Take them to meganslaw.ca.gov and show them what monsters REALLY look like. I don't enjoy having to live in fear, but more importantly is making sure our kids are SAFE from pedophiles. I talked with my daughter Erica ALL THE TIME about Sex, Drugs, Alcohol, God, Sin, Rape, Crime, Homosexuality, Baby-making, etc. NO TABOO TOPICS. She knew that she could talk to me about ANYTHING AT ALL. I hope that I was able to help! Please "share" the video on FB, OK?

You are very courageous! Intense/emotional vid. I kept a similar secret for 21 years. only spoke of it once to my mother & many times to friends. I had bad dreams of the person & thought they were just dreams. Until I found proof and that was the day I told my mom. The person was 91 yrs old by that time and I felt there was no reason to bring it to his wife or anyone else. made my mother swear to keep it a secret. I think you are a hero and thank you for sharing your secret with us! God Bless

@iiceeee Hello! Thanks for your words! I have spoken with the investigator for the Garden Grove Police Department, (that is where the offense occurred) and he told me that he alerted the Santa Barbara PD and let them know about him. I checked the sexual predator websites, and he wasn't listed. I called the Boy Scouts of America to let them know that he told me that he was an Assistant Scoutmaster and that he had done this with scouts, but they haven't followed up with me. This is my therapy!

Please share and watch. It names a predator that is still out there molesting children. Maybe others whom have been or still are being used by this guy will speak up and we can get Ed R_ _ _ _ _ from Santa Barbara whom does airbrushing off the streets and locked away where he belongs.
