I was watching Law&Order: SVU last night. It was the finale. For those who don't know, this show is tells the story of previous cases. This one was about a lady who was an upstanding citizen and principal of a school. She was married and had a 14 year-old step-son. She ended up s.exually a.ssaulting a 12 year-old boy. As the show progressed, we find out that she has a brain tumor that makes it so that she cannot control her impulses. They removed the tumor, but she asked to be listed as a s.ex o.ffender because if the tumor came back, she would likely o.ffend again. While she's in the hospital, we also find out that she was m.olested by her grandfather for 4 years, beginning at age 8. At the end of the show, we find out she's pregnant by the 12 year-old boy and she says all she ever wanted was a child of her own. Needless to say, it was a difficult show to watch.
