I think Paul is saying that in denial...or to save his own skin.Maybe not this year. Most of them are not allowed around children under the age 18. I think the grandma's are the only adults left. MWK and Paul both have their spouses to worry about. If Paul stands by his statement someone in the family is retaliating against Chessie, then I would think they wouldn't want to be with family. Actions speak louder than words.
I know someone who investigates sex crimes against children. This person works for the state police in a special division called "crimes against children" and is called in by Child Protective Services when a sex crime involving a child is reported.
This investigator is specially trained in the area of sex crimes. All interviews with the victim are audio recorded and no leading questions can be asked. Medical exams are done on victim if appropriate. (They cannot go to a child and ask, "is it true that Chessie did this to you?" because that would be a "leading" question that might not hold up in court.)
The investigator also interviews the person who is being accused of the crime.
It can take many months to gather all this information which is then given to prosecutors who then decide if there is enough valid information to press charges against the accused. If Alabama is anything like my state, then I am more than confident that this has nothing to do with "retaliation".
