1:27:11
Well, I gotta eat something.
1:27:15
I'm proud to say
1:27:16
I've managed to leave barely
any gas in the car.

1:27:20
See, just our luck
1:27:21
we'll be trapped
at the house.

1:27:23
We'll run out of gas
at the house.

1:27:30
- You a child molester, Jess?
- Nope.

1:27:32
Did you ever do it?
1:27:33
Never touched a kid.
1:27:34
Did you do what
they said you did?

1:27:35
I never touched a kid.
1:27:37
I never saw my father
touch a kid.

1:27:39
Good.
1:27:41
Yeah, but still,
you must have done it.

1:27:43
Yeah, but surely
something has happened.

1:27:45
It must, something.
1:27:46
Because the police
say it's true.

1:27:47
OK, you never
touched a kid, right?

1:27:49
Well, if something happened
1:27:50
it didn't happen
while I was there.

1:27:53
And it was a minimal incident
1:27:54
because the kid didn't
say anything about it.

1:27:57
But the police,
how could they be lying?

1:27:58
Shut up, Seth.
1:28:03
The children
1:28:04
the 14 children in this case
are clearly victims.

1:28:08
No one could ever argue that.
1:28:09
The real culprit here
is Arnold Friedman.

1:28:12
The man is a monster.
1:28:14
He abused him
and he molested him.

1:28:17
This can't be overlooked.
1:28:18
I can't believe we live
in such a cold society

1:28:21
that no one could look at this
man and understand that.

1:28:23
My father raised me confused
1:28:25
about what was right
and what was wrong

1:28:27
and I realize now
how terribly wrong it all was.

1:28:32
I wish I could have done
something to stop it sooner.

1:28:36
I wish there was something
I could have done.

1:28:38
I'm very, I'm
1:28:42
I'm just so sorry it happened.
1:28:45
Judge Boklan
sternly looked down

1:28:48
and said that she recommended
to the parole board

1:28:52
that he serve the maximum period
of time permitted by law

1:28:58
a statement which I felt
was harsh and unnecessary
