a "good friend" (male) divulged to me that he was molested by uncle when he was a child. He never told anyone. He is still afraid that it will hurt his aunt becasue he likes her. This guys life has been ruined.. I believe becasue of it. He used drugs for most of his adult life, abused alcohol, I highly suspect addistion to porn and gambling, basically.. just little to no impulse or compulsion control. Does not trust any woman, accuses every woman that he has been in a relationship with of cheating, is very emotionally burdeing, clingy, gets anxious when she is away, aggitated when she stays late at work, even thoought she is with him ALL the time, still complaisn that she doesn’t shower enugh attention on him, doesn’t participate actively in their life, is demanding and selfish, he is emotionally out of control, he is bitter and angry, and it comes out when they have issues and he drinks, he gets very bitter and says unfair or irrelevent things, is pushy at times when it comes to sex, acts irresponsible, negative, and needy… well this list goes on and on. He needs help and has yet to get it.
Now Im so mad at the person that I KNOW did this. I’d like to just burn him at the stake, but I fear that the victims family will be angry with me.
THIS PERSON WORKS AT THE SCHOOL AS AN ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL AND TEACHER.
What in the world can I do???
abaddono… no… The molester works at a school.

If the pedophile is the assistant principal you need to report it. I have two kids and I would pray that if someone knew anything about a pedophile anywhere near my kids that someone would say something. You have to decide what you would rather have on your conscience, helping this man stay good with his wife and family or helping innocent children who could end up like your friend if someone doesn’t do something. Also, if you are in any type of medical, education, clerical, or governent job, you are required by law to notify the proper authorities. The principal/pastor at my old school was charged when he was almost 80 for things he did years ago but by then he had already "touched" countless children. Now is the time to act.

This sounds like an incredibly hard situation, but if you know that he did it and he works at a school you should go to the authorities. Be cautious though, I know that you trust your friend but in the off chance that he isn’t telling the truth you could be ruining an innocent man’s life.
If you are sure that he is telling the truth then go and tell the school or the police, if anything happens to a child there you would never forgive yourself.

You can contact the police with your suspicions but, your "good friend" will have to verify them because he’s an adult.

Encourage this person to get professional help. Tell him it wasn’t right what happened to him and he doesn’t need to keep it a secret anymore. He has the
right to overcome what has happened and the only way to get his life back is to
talk with a therapist. Tell him you want him to know some kind of happiness. Then
offer to go with him when he talks with a therapist. Good luck.

If your friend wont go to the police with this information or to his aunt,who by the way he isnt protecting by keeping this from her,then he is allowing a dangerous person to have the chance to molest more children,And if thats the case then he is as sick as the man who molested him.I suggest if he wont bring this to light that you stay away from him.Hes not stable and could end up hurting you or maybe molesting a child.

If you don’t do something about this, then bank on another victim, the family will work its issues out but by all means turn him in. I don’t care if he is the President of the United States, it is your obligation to do so..
