Thanks for posting this! Seems like the 7th child contacted the authorities then and the 8th reported the lewd act. If Im putting faces together correctly the 7th child particularly stands out to me in photos, like her smile is less forced. I dont know...
I believe the lewd act was committed against the 8th child, who also appears to be the child

I work at a bank and it is not at all unusual for people of their age not to have a debit card. They grew up in a time of cash and writing checks and many people their age are very reluctant to use debit cards. They probably rely on credit cards and check writing for their bills and purchases...

I searched for EE and ES but didn't come up with anyone related to EE. The victim could have been one of their girlfriends at the time. I'm not sure if I have the right ES but he has addresses listed in both AZ and PA and a few different related females.
Reading over that article about the rapist in PA it struck me that he is from Cuba and LEK is known to have liked Cuban food. It doesn't say if the rapist and victim knew each other beforehand though, just though it was interesting. I wonder if there was a large Cuban community in PA at the time.
