Also, that’s his biological child. Of course he will bathe his own baby. This guy is exactly the type of offender who ends up NOT reoffending. When you have someone who freely admits his crime, does everything required to be in compliance, and accepts ACCOUNTABILITY for he has done… THAT is a person who is ready and capable of change. I’ve worked with THOUSANDS of prisoners, and he is doing everything right. Your opinion that he cannot change has nothing to do with him and everything to do with your own pain. I wish you health and healing.
once a kid been victimized, these predators mentality messed up the kids head and may ended up becoming like the predators themselves, it is why it's important to protect the children because they don't have consent nor know what's right and wrong when being victimized
The fact that Christina rubbed Steve’s back as if he’s the victim after he told what he did is just sick. Prayers for those girls and their mother because I know it hurts her to know she brought that predator into her home.
I had absolutely no sympathy for these creatures they have any idea what they done to the survivors that now have to live with the trauma of being sexually abused creatures and they're complaining they're lucky they're alive anybody did that to my child I would like nothing better than to kill them I know I wouldn't really kill them my child needs me but the feelings of wanting to kill them and the anger and every human emotion possible. Thank you again Riesling for doing another incredible in-depth human story. And you can't believe anything they say when it comes to their sickness around children just because they're paroled or whatever they don't change they just don't want to get caught again I don't hear as of yet any remorse for me creatures
I spoke to a female who lost her virginity at 14 to someone who was 22. She got mad when I said it was statutory grape because she wasn't grape she consented to it. It is not just the perpetrators, sometimes it is the victims who can't comprehend that they are victims because they volunteered.
@@hardcorenativextremeYou are a low class, uneducated, ignorant chomp. The videos you post of your “niece,” is super suspicious. And that stupid cholo stance in your pic is so cringey
She was such a sad excuse for a mom! I do feel that she obviously has self esteem and self worth issues, but to put your child in danger with a man, who has basically stated that there is no other reason to do it except opportunity, is negligent!
These mothers are often of subnormal intelligence, drug or alcohol addicts. I'm not excusing them but they are not "the reason" why children are abused. The reason, the responsibility lies with the abuser. They want to be powerful and choose the most vulnerable to act out their sexual desires. The mothers of these children are often victims themselves. A sad, sick situation.
As far as Christina goes.. all I have to say is: every child deserves a parent, but not every parent deserves a child. They deserve way better than a mother who is risking their safety for a man! Shame on her!!!!!
You got that right. She is desperate and she'll take any kind of man. I wouldn't be able to look in the mirror and have respect for myself if I let a man like that into my life.
Christina needs therapy for her low self esteem and trauma because theres no way I'm dating a child molester and I have small children. That's pure desperation. That dude was sober the entire year and it would have been longer if the family didn't find out
Did anyone call Child Protective Services on the mother allowing her 2 daughters around a known abuser of young girls?! How dare they film this and NOT report them.
Unless there is a condition of their conviction to be restricted from ever living with minor children, he can live with them as long as the children aren't making statements of abuse or other corroborating evidence to suggest abuse
Christina, even if you killed him if he touched your daughter, there's no erasing the damage that has been done to her. The responsible thing to do is to keep Steve away from your life. Its so infuriating how idiotic she was
As for those of you insulting each of these people including my SELF it was YOU I made the report concerning & such. Christina...& all as such. Either get help...or wish you did.
Lisa Ling is a national treasure. I know she may take some heat when covering this topic, but her reporting shines. She's not glorifying or excusing them, just shining a light on what their lives are like.

Every criminal also. Gang members, drug dealers, burglars, car jackers etc. I was sexually assaulted by a burglar when I was preschool age. Why aren't burglar's required to register!?
Being a victim of sexual assault at the age of 8 years of age I still deal with the trauma every single day. I'm 62 years of age and I am still traumatised. Sexual offenders should be charged with murder because they basically kill their victims. Once a child is sexually assaulted their life is over. Keep them all in jail.
Not over fortunately. You can get over it, rebuild your life(just what i am doing). But this is definitely does not take away from the fact that sexual abuse is even worse than murder. I am 29 years old and was molested by my own half brother when i was 7 and my older cousin when i was 8. Top it all of with my father's amotional abuse. Fortunately i live my life mostly happily and my recovery is not over. :) You will get over it, you are strong, you deserve to be happy. Unfortunately a lot of people are not this lucky and ending up taking their own lives because they can not take the pain anymore which is around even after many years. I just hope that these parasites(offenders) will finally get what they deserve and spend the rest of their time behind bars. They should never be let out.
@@benedictatshibi2266 no it's not lol, he could've taken a piss outside or something non-violent, the reason the registry exists right now is to make the public feel safer when I'm reality it doesn't!

He said it himself! The only way to 100000% make sure they don’t reoffend is by *never* letting them out. These sentences are wayyyy too light for the crimes they commit!!
Classic episode. Lisa is one of the BEST investigative/freelance journalists of her time and definitely one of the G O A T S . I also believe she's super underestimated. There are not many American journalist of color with her type of catalogue. I truly admire her. All her pieces are complete. She always understands the assignment. 🙌🏾
Ryan had a sense of panic and fear when his foot monitor went off. Ironic. I wonder if he contemplates that same sense of panic, fear, anxiety that all of of his victims live with constantly and forever.
Steve and Christina's story really troubled me. I felt nervous and physically ill as soon as I saw them bathing their son. I don't understand the law that allows him to be around that child or the fact he can be in the home between 6 am and 10 pm, as if a child wouldn't be abused within those hours. I'm so fearful of how that child's life is going to play out.....
He made it clear that the rules in place will not prevent someone from reoffending again…if they are going to reoffend again they are going to do it. There’s nothing that is going to stop them aside a lifetime in prison.
I had the local supervisor of CPS tell me that even men who are convicted and go to jail for sexually abusing their own children are often times allowed unsupervised visitation with them after they get out how f****** wrong and sick!!!! Society is going down the toilet.... I think we ALL need to get out and vote and start demanding change, kids depends on us to protect them and we are NOT doing even a remotely good job of that collectively as a whole and it disgusts me
I feel like the women that are with these men Are attracted to abusers because they were abused as girls and or major daddy issues but I heard you attract what's familiar
It's only okay to minimize a certain class of people as subhuman. What's good for the goose isn't good for the gander. Only some are deserving of human compassion. Thank you for the enlightenment oh center of the universe. You're not helping with a solution.
I can't see how anyone could date or be in a relationship with someone who has harmed a child. The wife 20:15 is just sitting there consoling and rubbing his back as if he did nothing wrong wtf, he ruined the lives of those kids. 😭
21:00 please tell me someone called the department of child and family services on that delusional mom who’s willing to sacrifice her child’s safety for her own pathetic and selfish desire to be loved. Oh my god that’s just insane. How disgusting
Yes it's sickening!! She's allowing him the opportunity to do the same as he did with the first girlfriend !! It's horrible. God please protect all children from these monsters!
I was a victim of child sexual abuse from the age of 4 thru 9, and suffered many years after. I have no compassion for these type of people. The devastation and pain that they cause last a lifetime. I’ve never truly felt whole, and normal. I’ve carried the pain and still the remanence of it remained decades later.
I was 3 that I remember till 9, who really knows🙅... When it began , it was a teen in family who then taught other boys n I to play house n drive hotwheels all over him n I had to be the mom 👀💭 ... Im 50 this year n my sister came to live with us when i was 9 n it stopped 👏🙌👏❣️.. ya never have closure, or heal, even with therapy n IT SuXx 🙅💭💯❣️... Im sorry anyone had to suffer , hes not the only 1 , yet family thought hes not to be prosecuted cause he was "young" , Ots sickening n i dont talk to any of them n I raised my kids safely without any of them ✌️♥️✌️, closure will be at his death cause God said "Vengeance is mine" , I know he will suffer with the others who did bad things 🙌🏳️🙌❣️... Im so sorry we went thru SA , 1 was charged n got 16 years n lived in segregation cause they tried to kill him when they found out his charges, he pulled all 16 years n has to register, the others try to associate when they see 👀 me out, n I walk on, after i cuss them 💯🙅 talk to me EVER
Sadly, Christina is a poor excuse for a woman and especially a mother!! It appears she has some major self-esteem issues and insecurities, this young lady needs to seek professional help, not validation from a man. She desperately needs to learn to love herself and build herself up. I have 2 daughter’s (25 & 17) and I still would NEVER put my “needs” first at the expense of their safety and security!!
I have a former student who most likely is. The girl (also a student) was a known liar, and her lies sent him to prison. The kid had promise, and now he's in his late 30's and has a terrible life. The majority of these guys, though? Sure.
My abuse started when I was 12 by my dads best friend, when he tried to rape me at 14 is when I finally ran and never let him touch me again. Kept it a secret from everyone and when I was 22 he had a heart attack. I got to be in the hospital room as he came off life support and I watched him slowly die. Best closure ever. Finally came clean about the abuse six years later. My parents were so upset. My mom ripped every photo with him in it out of the frame. Glad I don’t have to see his face when I visit their house anymore.
I don’t feel sorry for these men that hurt children. I’m thinking of all of the severe trauma they’ve caused, all of the lives they’ve shattered , and they don’t deserve to be released into the community.
I was molested when I was 4 by a older cousin and the memory is still there and haunts me.... imagine a kid who was older than I was... I in no way feel empathy for these people.
Yeah. My cousin did that to me at age 8 years old. And it still hurts. But I hope some of these men can change. I don’t know. As a survivor it still hurts me. But my way is just to not have contact ever with him. But I still think they can live their life. But I don’t know. I have mix feelings.
No ma’am! Say what you want about single parents, my kids came first. After my divorce, I made the decision to raise my children alone in my home. I co-parented with their dad. If I dated, men didn’t come to my house. Some ppl date single parents just for the kids. I couldn’t live with myself if something had happened to them. No man was coming before my babies. What in the world, lady?
I’ve been single since 2018 and I’ll be damned if I let anyone else in my home. I coparent with my kids dad and that’s it. When he has gfs I tell him you better keep eyes on our kids because you never know! I don’t get women who put a man first.
"He made me feel like a woman" Disgusting. She puts her needs and feelings first than the reality and safety of her daughter. I'm glad that he accepts his punishment and admits what he has done. Men AND women who are child predators and rapists are disgusting. There is a special place in hell for those.
The father at the end of this segment said that they’re trying to destroy his son’s life. No sir, your son destroyed his own life by going after underage girls.
Christina puts her hand on his back as if he's the victim.. that is just unreal to me.. and I truly believe her letting him be around her kids is putting them In harm's Way.. complete filth!
Well he did suffer the consequences of his actions and had a long time to think about it. People can change. one crime doesnt force you to commit crime all your life. She supports him 🤷🏻♀️
@@stellamary204 she totally does. I deeply fear for those children. The fact that he knew what he was doing, was completely aware every single time he chose to molest those children and still went ahead with it. No sympathy from me. These disgusting vile humans deserve everything they get. I personally believe they should never be released.
When one of the women gave her story about her nanny molesting her I really felt that especially with the grooming process. It was always “if you don’t tell I’ll give you candy!” “Let’s go the store for some candy now.” Growing up I felt like it was my fault because I didn’t tell my mom because I was embarrassed and allowed candy to keep me quiet. But I was 5/6. I should never have felt guilty for that being done to me.
Well, I dont know about you but I'd definitely tell if someone tried to bribe or threatened me AT EVEN 10! I only WOULDN'T tell if I still give people the benefit of the doubt, that they didnt "touch" on purpose. But once they clearly show me their true color, I'd not be afraid to tell on them: if it's not your fault, there's NO REASON to fear or feel ashamed! if people ever have these 2 above feelings, there's definitely something wrong in their home, such as parents' teaching/ignorance..
A humongous majority of addicts are addicted to drugs due to the actions of these monsters. I look forward to the day when any person who abuses kids for any reason can be hung from a tree. That day is coming.
Lisa Ling deserves the highest of honors for her style of reporting on the most important and controversial topics society faces...she does it with professionalism and grace! I feel she should get the Presidential Medal of Freedom! Adore her!
She did a good job, some people are not happy that she was civil with the offenders, it’s not as if she can do a good interview being hostile. If you see how police officers interview offenders to get the right information it’s the same affect.
@@ninisherebaxley7589 and him violating his parole rules on the first day was also kinda telling on his character. It wasn't like he had many rules, don't visit the beach and don't go to your parents house, and he does both in one day yet act like a victim when he was jailed again SMH
I love Lisa's journalist investigations and interviews. She's not afraid to get in the nitty gritty of it. She's always super engaging and doesn't try to make it more dramatic than exactly what it is. Why doesn't she have her own talk/interview show??
I think it's harder to decide the punishment when the offender is a child themselves (maybe until age 18). Ages 18 - 26 is a transition period to adulthood and a peak period for athletic ability; if an offender has little to no control over their impulses and emotions, great harm can be done. I think that a 10 - 20 year sentence with therapy, job training, educational options, and community service (supervised) for the younger offenders can hopefully give enough time to see if these individuals are safe enough to be released from prison.
My daughter was sexually assaulted by a family friend of 19 years. When I found out I had him arrested and he went to prison for 5 years. My daughter is grown now and she with life sentence even with years of counseling she had never gotten over this . When I saw that mother allow her husband to bathe that baby I almost threw up what the hell is the matter with her !! With a 2 year old and a baby there with him his just Asking for her children to be abused! Does she need to be with a man so desperately that she hands her children over to have their lives destroyed. The authorities should take her kids away if she chooses to stay with this guy.
So this is a way that predators can get together, swap stories and plan things in the future. How wonderful. America, you should be so proud of your justice system.
You commented 3 months ago, so I'll respond to you. The story that starts at 18:19, how!!! A person that touches a child is bs. Then straight up say it wasn't drugs or alcohol. How is he alive
I was just thinking that. share houses for pedos with the same desires ? ESPECIALLY with the internet they can exchange vile CP and plan out their next victims.. fking nasty.
I love how Lisa can interview these monsters without lashing out.. she has more patience than I do.. these offenders need to be in prison for the rest of their lives
6 and 10 year old girls..he needs to be in treatment until he comes up with a clear answer on why??? His girlfriend needs help if she found herself in someone who does not know himself.
@@TaylorWilliamsnaturalisttaylor yeh, it takes a special kind of evil to lay down with a demon who has assaulted children, and then have a baby with him😡
I agree. Especially when he openly stated there was no alcohol or drugs involved. Not that that is an excuse but he was very clear that he was in his right mind.
Once a predator always a predator. The fact that the 23 year old wife with a young daughter lets him be around her child!!!??? Why would she even want anything to do with him in the first place! I feel sick to my stomach
clearly she has some trauma surrounding abuse and thinks this is all she deserves. all offenders are master manipulators and so hes probably making her feel like she's his entire world and constantly love bombing.
@@pinkpugginz I understand your point. However, no matter what she has endured, it is no excuse for endangering another child! This just perpetuates the cycle! I am a survivor and I WOULD NEVER put another child at risk for my own gratification. When you are a Mother, you sign up to sacrifice your wants for your childs needs! Period.
You don't seem too bright. So if you stole a candy bar as a kid, or got into a fight, we can use that against you for the rest of your life too right?! Once a thief always a thief, once a bully always a bully, right?! Wait until it's your son or daughter, or your mom or dad that makes a dumb mistake, we'll see how you feel then.

These men want arm candy and young girls. It’s totally gross. I wish I could keep those young girls from going with these older men. The whole sugar baby thing is awful.
@@dall9329 sorry if I didn’t add more to my comment. You are also correct. These young women are sometimes looking for that sugar daddy too. It happens a lot in fact. I’m not for that either. I guess I’m more old school in my thinking 🤷🏻♀️
Men are & will always be attracted to young, attractive (aka fertile) women. Whether viewed as gross or not that’s basic human sexuality… and if the person is 18 it’s legal for better or for worse. The real monsters are the people abusing innocent children.
Right! The thing is that the dog doesn't know what it's doing, it's an innocent being, perhaps dangerous but innocent. These men know exactly that they did.
There’s no cure for pedaphiles, so if they have to stay in the woods, that’s luxury in my eyes. I honestly don’t think that’s far enough away. A mom that will subject her kids to that, knowing what he has done, doesn’t deserve to have her kids.
she dont deserve to has kids be called mom or has the honor of being a mom child protective services should be notified the child should be removed from her custody both should be sterilised to prevent future children to be born pedos should has they genitals disabled
I honestly don’t know or understand why any mother would take a chance like that with her children?? To me that’s putting your needs ahead of your childrens and you gave up the right to be frivolous when you become a parent!
Woah!!! Christina definitely needs help! Oh man, this is so heartbreaking. As a woman who was molested by my mother's boyfriend turned husband it absolutely breaks my heart to know a woman would allow a man with a molestation charge into her child's life. So damn sad!!!
He destroyed two children's lives forever and she says she trusts this monster? No, it's just a matter of time before he gets his claws in your child. He wasnt even apologetic for what he did!!! Wheres CPS????
Awareness should be taught. Children sometimes don't know that adults are turned on by them. They should be warned at school if not at home. Parents must agree to this instruction.
@@bjkeene1114 SAFE touch can be taught.. “No one should touch where your bathing suit covers.” They don’t need to hear about the negative part at that age… Specific crimes. Teach from a positive point of view.
Ryan is the most likely to repeat a crime against children. He smiles and grins throughout the interview like he can't wait to meet another young girl.
Honestly, if my husband and I separate/divorce I will be single until my children are 18+... I would not be able to forgive myself if I brought a monster into my home to abuse my children. No thank you! Prayers for all the children, I hope they get the healing they deserve.
Yup. I am a single mom and it is my worst fear. I am SUPER cautious and untrusting. If a guy shows any hint of being sketchy...bye! And when she was little and couldn't communicate well, I never let a man around her without me. Even at her preschool, I asked if men were allowed to work there. They said yes, but there were currently no male teachers. I was so happy. When she went to grade school, I'd ask her every few weeks if any guy has touched her or made her uncomfortable. She KNEW what was right and wrong. Now she is 12...she has been homeschooled since 3rd grade. I am SO happy she doesn't go to school. A male teacher SA'd some girl students here a few years back. And he got caught. Imagine all that don't get caught! 😢 Also at the preschool here, there was a male advocate working there who raped a little girl when they were alone in his office. It's awful. I don't ever want to put her at risk. It's scary you never know who the monsters are til it's too late. Could be your friendly, wholesome neighbor. Could be your church's beloved pastor. Could be the maintenance man. Could be your uncle. Could even be the babysitter who is taking videos of the child for her boyfriend. You never know. I worked at a preschool once and I was helping change a little girl into her bathing suit for water play. We were in the bathroom and there were no cameras in sight. Once the girl got out of her clothes, she looked sadly at me and asked, "Please don't take videos of me." I thought I misheard her so I asked what she said and she repeated the same phrase. I told her I wasn't going to. I reported it to my supervisor (there were other signs if abuse too and they had been in foster care before). So sad.
My neighbour across the street has a young daughter and she has a new bf every month. Always moves her in with them. I fear for her child but she doesn’t care. She is selfish. She can’t survive without having a bf and doesnt focus on her kid. I want to take her kid in so badly but she thinks she’s a good mother.
23 years old and says “ I’ve been with a bunch of bad guys… and this one makes me feel like a person.” But he lives like an animal and you let him around your kid. So sick.
I have to admit, I started watching these episodes because I think Lisa Ling is AMAZING, however, now I can't get enough of her in depth thoroughly researched topics! Challenging, and so well done. Thank you Lisa Ling!
Long haired men scare me because of the man that hurt me. I’m 35 and still am traumatized and hurt by this. I shelter my daughter because of what happened when I was 5 from my aunts boyfriend and it keeps me from being open intimately. It NEVER goes away and if you could hurt a child, you could do anything 🥺
There is a different way to live with trauma I know I have a SA background ( my sibling molested me) I have been in cognitive therapy. It's really good 👍
This makes me feel sick. Those children got a life sentence. They are going to have to live with the trauma for the rest of their lives. Sorry but I really don’t have much sympathy for people who hurt children.
No need to be sorry for fighting for our forgotten victims. We get less help and rights than those vile experiments of "humans". I work with people affected by monsters. Hard to get them off the street if not even getting them a warm plate of food. But a disgusting excuse of a person? Living the life with more support 🤮🤮🤢🤢
The guy that's in real estate finding them a home looks just as disgusting and creepy , as they are profiting off of putting these creatures in our areas with our vulnerable innocent children
Cristina has a 2 year old kid and is willing to be with a man who ADMITS that he molested his ex gf's kids for over a year, that is DISGUSTING, SELFISH and WRONG! I really hope and pray he does not lay hands on her child. Shame on her for even putting her kid in a possibility like that.
exactly what i was gonna say. She says she’s been with bad men, just because he’s nice to you you’re gonna take the chance of him touching your children? I think not!

I was watching this is life on I think discovery+ & I have so much respect Lisa Ling to do what she does to inform the rest of the world is brave. To be as willing and also open to hearing these horrible things and have to grit your teeth for the pain of the victims and you know that the person you're talking to would probably do it again. There's just no words. I think it's so important to be as educated as we can be to keep ourselves, our children, friends, families safe.
This lady is stupid for allowing him around her child! How can you be that desperate for a man that you would choose a known offender? Plus, risk your child's well-being.
I wish Lisa would do a "where are they now"follow up I would like to see how many went back to prison due to re offending.that is the only way we can tell if they can be safe in society
Ryan couldn’t follow the most basic of rules set before him for 24 hours. Don’t go to your parents home until you’ve been approved by parole and don’t go to the beach. If he can’t follow basic rules for 24 hours, can he be trusted long term? The fact that he blames the system for him ignoring the rules shows he is quick to shift blame instead of taking responsibility. They have to be strict with offenders like him. There are children on the line.
These predators deserve zero sympathy. Every one of them has created so much trauma in their victims. Their victims are sentenced to a lifetime of severe drug abuse and suicide. These men and drug dealers should literally be the ones in jail. They cause destruction and devastation.
Omg this comment!! Yes! 🙌 I couldn’t agree more. Predators and drug dealers kill people. And for the ones they don’t kill, they still kill their souls. They need to be locked up.
You literally don’t know that. There are people on the registry who were 18 and slept with their 16 year old high school sweethearts. Kids these days are hoeing themselves out all over TikTok and Snapchat. You really think their lives are “rUiNeD”?
This was made back in 2011...it would be great to see a followup on the people featured in this. I wonder how Steve and Christina his wife made it in these intervening 12-13 years? I wonder what the legal reoffending rate is for these men generally?

Watching that offender give the baby a bath made my skin crawl. My stepdad was my abuser and I full heartedly believe that they DO NOT change.
Why are these monsters allowed to live?
No they do not
Exactly
Also, that’s his biological child. Of course he will bathe his own baby. This guy is exactly the type of offender who ends up NOT reoffending. When you have someone who freely admits his crime, does everything required to be in compliance, and accepts ACCOUNTABILITY for he has done… THAT is a person who is ready and capable of change. I’ve worked with THOUSANDS of prisoners, and he is doing everything right. Your opinion that he cannot change has nothing to do with him and everything to do with your own pain. I wish you health and healing.
They don’t
The only people I feel sorry for through all of this, Are the KIDS.
@Xon Xon this is about people who sexually assaulted kids not adults.
Indeed they are the only true victims!
@Xon Xon are you dumb please tell me?! I never said that this is just for people who sexually assaulted kids moron.
once a kid been victimized, these predators mentality messed up the kids head and may ended up becoming like the predators themselves, it is why it's important to protect the children because they don't have consent nor know what's right and wrong when being victimized
Mel H did you graduate from high school back in 2006?
The fact that Christina rubbed Steve’s back as if he’s the victim after he told what he did is just sick. Prayers for those girls and their mother because I know it hurts her to know she brought that predator into her home.
yep her kids have all been abused I bet almost instantly
Smh. I can't believe someone can be that stupid
My thought exactly. He's not the victim at all!!

I had absolutely no sympathy for these creatures they have any idea what they done to the survivors that now have to live with the trauma of being sexually abused creatures and they're complaining they're lucky they're alive anybody did that to my child I would like nothing better than to kill them I know I wouldn't really kill them my child needs me but the feelings of wanting to kill them and the anger and every human emotion possible. Thank you again Riesling for doing another incredible in-depth human story. And you can't believe anything they say when it comes to their sickness around children just because they're paroled or whatever they don't change they just don't want to get caught again I don't hear as of yet any remorse for me creatures

You are absolutely right !!
Agreed. ZERO
She was such a sad excuse for a mom! I do feel that she obviously has self esteem and self worth issues, but to put your child in danger with a man, who has basically stated that there is no other reason to do it except opportunity, is negligent!
These mothers are often of subnormal intelligence, drug or alcohol addicts. I'm not excusing them but they are not "the reason" why children are abused. The reason, the responsibility lies with the abuser. They want to be powerful and choose the most vulnerable to act out their sexual desires. The mothers of these children are often victims themselves. A sad, sick situation.
She's broken too, Christina. She's thinking about herself and how he makes her feel, not the child
As far as Christina goes.. all I have to say is: every child deserves a parent, but not every parent deserves a child. They deserve way better than a mother who is risking their safety for a man! Shame on her!!!!!
Some parents need mandatory sterilization to prevent them from having children to harm or kill
Right. She is not a mother. How can she even look at him without disgust
Period!!
You got that right. She is desperate and she'll take any kind of man. I wouldn't be able to look in the mirror and have respect for myself if I let a man like that into my life.
well he did his time
Christina needs therapy for her low self esteem and trauma because theres no way I'm dating a child molester and I have small children. That's pure desperation. That dude was sober the entire year and it would have been longer if the family didn't find out

Omg yes she needs therapy .
She has no right! Its not her life, She has no right to gamble with someone else's life. She has no right to risk her child.

I’m sorry this happened but, Don’t feel bad telling doesn’t always lead anything . I told and nothing happened at all life went on as normal. Made me feel like a throw away child
So sorry to hear that. I hope you were able to get some kind of help and your life is getting better❤

you can still tell your story and put them on blast online. it's never too late to report. at least get it on the record. even if nothing is done

That Christina is not “giving him a chance”, she is FORCING her innocent 2 year old child to give him a chance.
I couldn’t have worded it better
Any parent having a child molester living in their home with children should be in prison also.
She is not a mother. That is so sick
It's scary

Every criminal also. Gang members, drug dealers, burglars, car jackers etc. I was sexually assaulted by a burglar when I was preschool age. Why aren't burglar's required to register!?
Being a victim of sexual assault at the age of 8 years of age I still deal with the trauma every single day. I'm 62 years of age and I am still traumatised. Sexual offenders should be charged with murder because they basically kill their victims. Once a child is sexually assaulted their life is over. Keep them all in jail.
As much as I agree with this. However we are not god.
Not over fortunately. You can get over it, rebuild your life(just what i am doing).
But this is definitely does not take away from the fact that sexual abuse is even worse than murder.
I am 29 years old and was molested by my own half brother when i was 7 and my older cousin when i was 8.
Top it all of with my father's amotional abuse.
Fortunately i live my life mostly happily and my recovery is not over. :)
You will get over it, you are strong, you deserve to be happy.
Unfortunately a lot of people are not this lucky and ending up taking their own lives because they can not take the pain anymore which is around even after many years.
I just hope that these parasites(offenders) will finally get what they deserve and spend the rest of their time behind bars.

Sober or not is totally irrelevant! It's a NO, period!
I would like to know what happened since this was released over a decade ago. I hope everyone is OK and that these children were not abused.
That should have said, I hope that these partners of these offenders have left them, and these children were never abused by these offenders.

And she pets him on the back like he was in pain

Ryan had a sense of panic and fear when his foot monitor went off. Ironic. I wonder if he contemplates that same sense of panic, fear, anxiety that all of of his victims live with constantly and forever.
His 'victims' were all consensual teens - not 4 year olds. None of his 'victims' had any fear of him.
Right?!
Right on! They're just putting an act coz they knew this female reporter would love it! 😏
Steve and Christina's story really troubled me. I felt nervous and physically ill as soon as I saw them bathing their son. I don't understand the law that allows him to be around that child or the fact he can be in the home between 6 am and 10 pm, as if a child wouldn't be abused within those hours. I'm so fearful of how that child's life is going to play out.....
Yeah this guy will for sure offend again and the child will probably be the victim. Disgusting.
He made it clear that the rules in place will not prevent someone from reoffending again…if they are going to reoffend again they are going to do it. There’s nothing that is going to stop them aside a lifetime in prison.
thats true
I had the local supervisor of CPS tell me that even men who are convicted and go to jail for sexually abusing their own children are often times allowed unsupervised visitation with them after they get out how f****** wrong and sick!!!! Society is going down the toilet.... I think we ALL need to get out and vote and start demanding change, kids depends on us to protect them and we are NOT doing even a remotely good job of that collectively as a whole and it disgusts me

Finally came clean about the abuse six years later. My parents were so upset. My mom ripped every photo with him in it out of the frame. Glad I don’t have to see his face when I visit their house anymore.

When one of the women gave her story about her nanny molesting her I really felt that especially with the grooming process. It was always “if you don’t tell I’ll give you candy!” “Let’s go the store for some candy now.” Growing up I felt like it was my fault because I didn’t tell my mom because I was embarrassed and allowed candy to keep me quiet. But I was 5/6. I should never have felt guilty for that being done to me.
Well, I dont know about you but I'd definitely tell if someone tried to bribe or threatened me AT EVEN 10! I only WOULDN'T tell if I still give people the benefit of the doubt, that they didnt "touch" on purpose. But once they clearly show me their true color, I'd not be afraid to tell on them: if it's not your fault, there's NO REASON to fear or feel ashamed! if people ever have these 2 above feelings, there's definitely something wrong in their home, such as parents' teaching/ignorance..

If I ever, EVER heard a child molester refer to himself as having “made a mistake” I don’t think I’d be able to hold myself back. It’s vile
Many did just make a mistake and deserve a second chance but the ones who go on to reoffend don’t deserve a second chance and are the evil ones.
I think it's harder to decide the punishment when the offender is a child themselves (maybe until age 18). Ages 18 - 26 is a transition period to adulthood and a peak period for athletic ability; if an offender has little to no control over their impulses and emotions, great harm can be done. I think that a 10 - 20 year sentence with therapy, job training, educational options, and community service (supervised) for the younger offenders can hopefully give enough time to see if these individuals are safe enough to be released from prison.

So this is a way that predators can get together, swap stories and plan things in the future. How wonderful. America, you should be so proud of your justice system.
You commented 3 months ago, so I'll respond to you. The story that starts at 18:19, how!!! A person that touches a child is bs. Then straight up say it wasn't drugs or alcohol. How is he alive
I was just thinking that. share houses for pedos with the same desires ? ESPECIALLY with the internet they can exchange vile CP and plan out their next victims.. fking nasty.
@@isaiahbarnes5906 🤣 in America, telling the truth is more important than being good 🤣 it's the "NEW" kind of "MORAL" for DRUGGIE generations! 🤣
I love how Lisa can interview these monsters without lashing out.. she has more patience than I do.. these offenders need to be in prison for the rest of their lives
6 and 10 year old girls..he needs to be in treatment until he comes up with a clear answer on why??? His girlfriend needs help if she found herself in someone who does not know himself.
Those poor girls :(. That was disturbing to hear. His wife defo needs help if she would trust him around her kids, wtf!
And she has a 2 year old daughter herself
I don’t know why they let him out he still needs to be locked up.
@@TaylorWilliamsnaturalisttaylor yeh, it takes a special kind of evil to lay down with a demon who has assaulted children, and then have a baby with him😡
I agree. Especially when he openly stated there was no alcohol or drugs involved. Not that that is an excuse but he was very clear that he was in his right mind.
Once a predator always a predator. The fact that the 23 year old wife with a young daughter lets him be around her child!!!??? Why would she even want anything to do with him in the first place! I feel sick to my stomach
clearly she has some trauma surrounding abuse and thinks this is all she deserves.
all offenders are master manipulators and so hes probably making her feel like she's his entire world and constantly love bombing.
@@pinkpugginz I understand your point. However, no matter what she has endured, it is no excuse for endangering another child! This just perpetuates the cycle! I am a survivor and I WOULD NEVER put another child at risk for my own gratification. When you are a Mother, you sign up to sacrifice your wants for your childs needs! Period.
You don't seem too bright. So if you stole a candy bar as a kid, or got into a fight, we can use that against you for the rest of your life too right?! Once a thief always a thief, once a bully always a bully, right?! Wait until it's your son or daughter, or your mom or dad that makes a dumb mistake, we'll see how you feel then. The biggest child molesters in this world have been of the Bible believer faith. Fact.

Try that route.
My side will always align to the victim because the PTSD, anxiety and countless other things the victims go through is a prison too....sometimes for life
I mean, why align to the predators at all?? The ONLY reason i could find is becoz such one is the SAME KIND AS THESE PREDATORS! 😏
Loved the initiative to go to schools and teach kids about protecting themselves and be more aware of danger.
Exactly. Because the system let these dogs out.
41 taking to a girl that just turned 18? Yeah you’re a danger.
These men want arm candy and young girls. It’s totally gross. I wish I could keep those young girls from going with these older men. The whole sugar baby thing is awful.
Lori don't blame men for being with young girl 18 ,19,20... most of the times these girls just want older men . Look at trump
@@dall9329 sorry if I didn’t add more to my comment. You are also correct. These young women are sometimes looking for that sugar daddy too. It happens a lot in fact. I’m not for that either. I guess I’m more old school in my thinking 🤷🏻♀️
Men are & will always be attracted to young, attractive (aka fertile) women. Whether viewed as gross or not that’s basic human sexuality… and if the person is 18 it’s legal for better or for worse. The real monsters are the people abusing innocent children.
@@dall9329 they don’t want older men, they want older man money. Don’t get it twisted.
Ryan, 7 years in jail..."I realized 3 weeks ago that I have a problem"👀
Any child molester deserves a standard death sentence. Worst crime a human being can commit, yet they get the lightest sentences.
Ryan spends 7 YEARS in prison and 3 WEEKS before his release date he finally realises he has a problem, yeah I'm not buying it!
The sparkle in his eye when he talks about the other specific offences being worse… 😬
He said it was an addiction so he may definitely re offend
👿👿👿👿👿👿👿
He won't re offend the rate is so low
@@byleethomas3190 wrong. He already re-offended before
If a dog attacks a child then it's put down, that's what needs to happen to these child predators!!
Right! The thing is that the dog doesn't know what it's doing, it's an innocent being, perhaps dangerous but innocent. These men know exactly that they did.
Exactly, no re offenders that way
It is that simple brother
Kill them
💯✊🏾 FACTSSSSS
There’s no cure for pedaphiles, so if they have to stay in the woods, that’s luxury in my eyes. I honestly don’t think that’s far enough away. A mom that will subject her kids to that, knowing what he has done, doesn’t deserve to have her kids.
I agree. They shouldn't be allowed to work in Congress either like matt gaetz
she dont deserve to has kids be called mom or has the honor of being a mom child protective services should be notified the child should be removed from her custody both should be sterilised to prevent future children to be born pedos should has they genitals disabled
I honestly don’t know or understand why any mother would take a chance like that with her children?? To me that’s putting your needs ahead of your childrens and you gave up the right to be frivolous when you become a parent!
It doesn't keep anyone safe though
There’s no cure now but I bet there’s one out there. I want to find it.
I don’t feel bad for them, they made vile decisions and now there is consequences.
“Keeping is in prison for the rest of our lives is the only way to make sure we don’t reoffend” yes, so go back to prison.
or DIE. we should just murder all these dirtbags, not pay to feed & house them. or send them to an island where they work in manufacturing for FREE.
That statement applies to all criminals
Prison is expensive
@@moviesjean23 I agree but so is therapy.
Woah!!! Christina definitely needs help!
Oh man, this is so heartbreaking.
As a woman who was molested by my mother's boyfriend turned husband it absolutely breaks my heart to know a woman would allow a man with a molestation charge into her child's life. So damn sad!!!
Yeah she’s in denial and super naive and trusting. Her receiving a man’s attention is more important than her children’s safety.
10 months in jail? That's a pathetic sentence,it's really sad how the justice system fails people!
And will most likely not reoffend. The longer they stay clean, the more apt they are to stay clean.
@@mrtwister9002 bs
Why are these people out of jail 😡. They should be jailed for 40 years plus
Facts 💯 💯
He destroyed two children's lives forever and she says she trusts this monster? No, it's just a matter of time before he gets his claws in your child. He wasnt even apologetic for what he did!!! Wheres CPS????
Honestly, sexual abuse should be taught in school, starting as kindergarten.
Agreed! My mom investigated it for her job and told me what to look for. I told her and she didn’t turn in my cousin! I was 5!
Not unless you want to deal with entitled parents and parents who are in control of higher power
Awareness should be taught. Children sometimes don't know that adults are turned on by them. They should be warned at school if not at home. Parents must agree to this instruction.
@@bjkeene1114 SAFE touch can be taught.. “No one should touch where your bathing suit covers.” They don’t need to hear about the negative part at that age… Specific crimes. Teach from a positive point of view.
@@grammichal6759 agreed
Ryan is the most likely to repeat a crime against children. He smiles and grins throughout the interview like he can't wait to meet another young girl.
Thats why his PO put him back
Ryan doesn’t listen. Ryan thinks he’s above the law. Ryan doesn’t take accountability. Don’t be a Ryan.
Ryan is dangerous and needs to be held accountable for his actions
Yes he’s creepy af
This is NOT a victimless crime
Honestly, if my husband and I separate/divorce I will be single until my children are 18+... I would not be able to forgive myself if I brought a monster into my home to abuse my children. No thank you! Prayers for all the children, I hope they get the healing they deserve.
p.s try not to let him know that !
Well that sounds kind of extreme lol. Are grandfathers or uncles banned from the house too?
Yup. I am a single mom and it is my worst fear. I am SUPER cautious and untrusting. If a guy shows any hint of being sketchy...bye! And when she was little and couldn't communicate well, I never let a man around her without me. Even at her preschool, I asked if men were allowed to work there. They said yes, but there were currently no male teachers. I was so happy.
When she went to grade school, I'd ask her every few weeks if any guy has touched her or made her uncomfortable. She KNEW what was right and wrong. Now she is 12...she has been homeschooled since 3rd grade. I am SO happy she doesn't go to school. A male teacher SA'd some girl students here a few years back. And he got caught. Imagine all that don't get caught! 😢 Also at the preschool here, there was a male advocate working there who raped a little girl when they were alone in his office. It's awful. I don't ever want to put her at risk. It's scary you never know who the monsters are til it's too late.
Could be your friendly, wholesome neighbor. Could be your church's beloved pastor. Could be the maintenance man. Could be your uncle. Could even be the babysitter who is taking videos of the child for her boyfriend. You never know.
I worked at a preschool once and I was helping change a little girl into her bathing suit for water play. We were in the bathroom and there were no cameras in sight. Once the girl got out of her clothes, she looked sadly at me and asked, "Please don't take videos of me." I thought I misheard her so I asked what she said and she repeated the same phrase. I told her I wasn't going to. I reported it to my supervisor (there were other signs if abuse too and they had been in foster care before). So sad.
My neighbour across the street has a young daughter and she has a new bf every month. Always moves her in with them. I fear for her child but she doesn’t care. She is selfish. She can’t survive without having a bf and doesnt focus on her kid. I want to take her kid in so badly but she thinks she’s a good mother.
Taking a child’s innocence and taking someone’s life is the same in my book and both murderers and pedo’s need to do life under the jail.
I agree 👍 💯
23 years old and says “ I’ve been with a bunch of bad guys… and this one makes me feel like a person.” But he lives like an animal and you let him around your kid. So sick.
These guys are master manipulators!
Just be honest look at her like really look
Literally one of The dumbest statement I ever heard
@@dianabeurman364 while I know manipulation is very really…. This is flat out stupid
They had a chance to live in society normally. They messed it up for themselves 💯 I dont feel bad for any of them
I have to admit, I started watching these episodes because I think Lisa Ling is AMAZING, however, now I can't get enough of her in depth thoroughly researched topics! Challenging, and so well done. Thank you Lisa Ling!
Long haired men scare me because of the man that hurt me. I’m 35 and still am traumatized and hurt by this. I shelter my daughter because of what happened when I was 5 from my aunts boyfriend and it keeps me from being open intimately. It NEVER goes away and if you could hurt a child, you could do anything 🥺
Stay strong
Remember YOU did nothing wrong the blame is the offenders....
I'm sorry for what happened to you and I hope that you received the necessary therapy so it doesn't affect your relationship with your daughter.
There is a different way to live with trauma
I know I have a SA background ( my sibling molested me)
I have been in cognitive therapy. It's really good 👍
I don't know wat would make a guy abuse a child like that that is a monster
This makes me feel sick. Those children got a life sentence. They are going to have to live with the trauma for the rest of their lives. Sorry but I really don’t have much sympathy for people who hurt children.
No need to be sorry for fighting for our forgotten victims. We get less help and rights than those vile experiments of "humans". I work with people affected by monsters. Hard to get them off the street if not even getting them a warm plate of food. But a disgusting excuse of a person? Living the life with more support 🤮🤮🤢🤢
@@sarahtonin4727 Women who murder they unborn children are monsters also, right?
@@mike-cs4pv nah
The guy that's in real estate finding them a home looks just as disgusting and creepy , as they are profiting off of putting these creatures in our areas with our vulnerable innocent children
I hate this world even has to deal with something like this! 😞
Yeah me too.
Cristina has a 2 year old kid and is willing to be with a man who ADMITS that he molested his ex gf's kids for over a year, that is DISGUSTING, SELFISH and WRONG! I really hope and pray he does not lay hands on her child. Shame on her for even putting her kid in a possibility like that.
She is not very bright, is she?
exactly what i was gonna say. She says she’s been with bad men, just because he’s nice to you you’re gonna take the chance of him touching your children? I think not!
She had a kid with him too.
It seems encouraging to me he is honest about it. I think there is gioe for that one if kept out of dangerous situations,like sleeping at her house
Ryan was camping out by somebody house pitch the tent 🎪😮
@@icant_thinkkk9320Of course hes going to try and win her over and prove his trust duhhh these men target single women with kids ..helloooo... so they can get to them
Why is castration not a requirement & a penalty? People don't have any problem wanting to control women's bodies.
Bc u can't stop hands and a tongue
Chemical castration could be a contribution to the solution (with therapie etc), it loweres the desires and they become impotent, Androcur its called and as a psychiatric nurse i had patients who got it per injection once per 4 weeks.
@@INFJ2 it's to reduce the testosterone & hormones = like the same side effects animals get! Kind on one more layer of protection. At least there would be no "GUESSING" WHO WAS AT THE LEVEL OF OFFENDING CUASE THEY GOT NO BALLS!
@@claudiar3553 just cut them off! Why are Men's Genitalia in such high regard and women have to beg for their Uterus to have respect & not controlled by the government
chemical castration doesn't work. sexual abuse is about power and control. even if they had no limbs they would still abuse kids.
How about we go ahead and let that mom know that WHEN he assaults her child again, she can go to prison with him! Same charges. Literally enabling him her reoffend ON HER OWN CHILD! That makes me so angry!!
I don't think she should give the chance or be allowed to give the chance for him to hurt her kid I think the minute she makes a decision like that her parental abilities should definitely be called into legal question
That dude took a big gulp when she said yeah I trust him with my kid she's crazy
Agreed
He looked shocked his damn self
And she barely looked at Lisa. A sign she doesn’t like talking about this.
Some one needs to check on that poor baby
@@CrimeTeaTime oh I’ll guess the police did after this episode aired. Always liked Lisa Ling
No sympathy for Ryan, he’s the type ppl should fear the most! His father should be more bitter toward his own son’s choices!
Delusional
Felt so uncomfortable when they were bathing the baby and when he was holding her 😩😩 Steve doesn't even seem to trust himself not to reoffend.
For real
:'(
Omg RIGHT!!!!???
Yes! Made me sick!
That gave me the creeps.
I was watching this is life on I think discovery+ & I have so much respect Lisa Ling to do what she does to inform the rest of the world is brave. To be as willing and also open to hearing these horrible things and have to grit your teeth for the pain of the victims and you know that the person you're talking to would probably do it again. There's just no words. I think it's so important to be as educated as we can be to keep ourselves, our children, friends, families safe.
This lady is stupid for allowing him around her child! How can you be that desperate for a man that you would choose a known offender? Plus, risk your child's well-being.
DESPERATE
These men act like they are innocent
I wish Lisa would do a "where are they now"follow up
I would like to see how many went back to prison due to re offending.that is the only way we can tell if they can be safe in society
"He has gone above and beyond for me."
*zips up tent* lmao
I pray every victim is liberated from gruesome circumstances 🙏🏾 May god rebuke their Demons
Ryan couldn’t follow the most basic of rules set before him for 24 hours. Don’t go to your parents home until you’ve been approved by parole and don’t go to the beach. If he can’t follow basic rules for 24 hours, can he be trusted long term?
The fact that he blames the system for him ignoring the rules shows he is quick to shift blame instead of taking responsibility. They have to be strict with offenders like him. There are children on the line.
exactly!
They should rot in jail for the rest of their lives.
These predators deserve zero sympathy. Every one of them has created so much trauma in their victims. Their victims are sentenced to a lifetime of severe drug abuse and suicide. These men and drug dealers should literally be the ones in jail. They cause destruction and devastation.
Omg this comment!! Yes! 🙌 I couldn’t agree more. Predators and drug dealers kill people. And for the ones they don’t kill, they still kill their souls. They need to be locked up.
You literally don’t know that. There are people on the registry who were 18 and slept with their 16 year old high school sweethearts. Kids these days are hoeing themselves out all over TikTok and Snapchat. You really think their lives are “rUiNeD”?
This was made back in 2011...it would be great to see a followup on the people featured in this. I wonder how Steve and Christina his wife made it in these intervening 12-13 years? I wonder what the legal reoffending rate is for these men generally?
