Not trying in any way to justify petafelia but now that we have media that loves to exploit such a story and the immediacy of the internet we believe we are more succeptable to harm and we tend to over protect. There are businesses that love this paranoid behaviour and exploit it ramping up the paranoia and the $$$ spent to guard against what ever you think you can guard against.
It will not get rid of such activity as there will always be sex drives that differ from what you believe is normal so IMHO just shoot convicted pedafials there is enough people on this earth that they will not be missed.
