We know from testimony for jury consideration, that LE stated MR did not have a criminal record.
Although it is possible for a sexual deviant to avoid a criminal record, they often do acquire a lengthy record of an unhealthy interest in such things.
Nobody who knew MR personally or intimately, has expressed the opinion they suspected he had an deviant sexual interest in young girls.
Many people who knew him personally and intimately, expressed disbelief at the charges against MR.
There has been nothing presented by virtue of evidence or testimony, to support the testimony of TLM regarding MR's sexual interest in little girls.
A deviant sexual interest could be held by MR, but I don't see any evidence to prove it yet.
JMO...........
All of this doesn't really mean anything. Russell Williams had no priors either and his friends and family AND co-workers AND superiors all were shocked at what he did, I bet it was a jaw-dropping moment for them. Believe me from my own experience that when you find out someone you know did something like this, your first reaction is always 'wow, he just didn't seem the type' or 'wow, I can't believe he did that, he seemed so normal" or "wow, I can't believe a member of my own family is a child molester, or a killer", etc
A deviant sexual nature is not something you want your friends and family to know about. Some people are good at hiding their true nature (wasn't MR always hiding his private life from his girlfriends) even fromt those they love, ie. Gary Ridgeway, the green river killer and Russell Williams, and who knows who else.
Just as a side note:
It just takes alot of time to process that kind of info and sometimes it can take years for families to come to terms with the truth. Families of people who kill and/or engage in other violent crimes are just as much victims of those crimes.
