Nevada child rape case needs closer look

First, let me say thank God they found the little girl who was raped by a sexual predator in Nevada four years ago, when she was only three. It was my greatest fear that she would not be found.

As I watch this horrific story unfold, I'm having a problem with some of the information coming out. For instance:

- The mother says the suspect was a distant family friend. I have to ask, how does a “distant” friend get access to three-year-old girl long enough to rape her multiple times and video it. If the authorities look harder they'll find that the predator was more than a distant family friend.

- In the background of the video you can see a bed and other things that do not look like the makings of a child's room. That means the rape took place either in the parent's room or in some other adult bedroom, possibly the predator's room.

- The police said that Madison showed little emotion as she was being raped and molested. That indicates this was not the first time something like this happened to her, either at the hands of the current suspect or someone else.

- Lastly, what is the connection between the suspect in the tape and the person who turned it over to police. A predator would not make this kind of video and just leave it lying around the desert.

There is a lot more going on here than the current facts indicate. I hope Madison gets the help she needs to recover from this ordeal. I also hope that the authorities exhaust every lead to bring every person who had a hand in this horrible act to justice.
