One of them was the 10-year-old relative of his first wife. He also at least put her hand on his penis. He says things went on with her over three years (and her sister).
The other child to whom he's admitted exposing himself was from his neighborhood. He says he saw her 15 years ago and "made amends", "apologized".
If nothing else, that right there elevates it to pedophilia in my book and over the course of three years...? Yuk.
I'm feeling less sorry for him as the story unfolds. If he's lead a squeaky clean life since then though I may go back to feeling somewhat sorry for him. I'm going to refrain from judgment.
I have to wonder why the woman waited until now to want to out him and/or pursue charges. Because of his fame (I don't even know who the hell he is but apparently some people watch Seventh Heaven)? I believe I heard he plays a pastor on the show...fitting somehow.
Maybe I'm naive but I also heard that he was on the board of a group that helped several populations (including children). I'd like to think (yep, I'm naive) that perhaps, just perhaps, he was doing that in part to atone for his past. The fact that he made amends and apologized to the woman 15 years ago is not meaningless to me (even though he denied it at first). Perhaps it was genuine...right? And why didn't she go to the police or pursue it then...because he wasn't famous at the time?
Wait...am I naive or a cynic? *scratches head*
