Honest answer or hopeful answer?
I hope that it is leading to criminal charges. I hope that it will lead to greater protections for children and adult victims of sexual predators. I hope the fear that more people are informed and watching will discourage many pedophiles from taking risks by acting on their fantasies.
Realistically? I don't think it's really heading anywhere. This sort of thing will keep happening. It's always happened and it always will. We won't catch or prevent it most of the time. Children are vulnerable. Predators are crafty. Even if everyone gets informed and all the right messages get out there, there will still be lonely kids who think nobody understands them and predators ready to take advantage of that.
Doesn't mean we shouldn't still try. I'm just not sure I see meaningful change on the horizon. People have short memories - there have been a lot of Kevin Spaceys and Harvey Weinsteins. We always say we'll be better next time, we'll catch it sooner we'll weed it out before it gets to that point. I'm not sure we ever do though.
