I’d say raping your adopted kid is not just a little slip up, and to brush that with “nobody’s perfect” is… well, you do you.

How do you prove with absolute certainty that a given person will never rape anyone?

You don’t, but you pay attention when a kid repeatedly shows up in hospital with mystery injuries, which happened in this case. Nobody paid attention until the kid was dead.

You could also have at home unscheduled social worker visits. Intrusive, sure, but it’s a) something you’d be knowingly opting into through adoption and b) likely mostly focussed on early years.

Then the question is how often that happens. Is this an outlier, the 0.0001% where all of the signs were missed, and everything failed?

Or does this happen regularly?
