"but I guess that is my right to be the exact opposite of your quick conviction."

Given the information we have any reasonable person would believe the pastor and his brother did it. For you to imply that we should jump to the conclusion (as you did) that the step father did it is absurd. If you have information other than what is in the article, perhaps you would care to share it?

If you were to read my posts in a "reasonable" manor the same way people should read news articles,you will see I am basically being the devils advocate,read all the posts,every one.

If they found the priest with a bloody stick and soiled sheets on a bed and they all matched the boys DNA/blood sample,I wouldn't even be on this thread.

read #63 to see where I am coming from.

The police are now looking for the Thompsons, to arrest them on this charge. I can only assume that they have looked into this and have found "probable cause" to believe the Thompsons did indeed do this.

Anything's possible, but this ISN'T that complicated a case, since the boy is alive and able to talk. And I don't know but must suppose that the police investigation might have turned up any evidence he was lying.

Tawana Brawley didn't stand up too long under police scrutiny, for example.
