A member of my family just killed himself having been arrested for CP related offenses. None of us knew anything about it, one second we were grieving for him then when the police dropped that bombshell... We're all in shock right now, angry, confused...

Not sure why I'm even posting this... Suppose I just saw it as somewhere I could vent a little. We're all worried right now about the thoughts of it making the news, if it gets out, any anger will be directed towards the family, people don't take too kindly to that kind of thing around here (well, rightly so) but nobody in the family knew anything about it at all yet I feel so ashamed, I can't walk around without thinking people are staring at me thinking "hey that's the guy with the pedo in his family"...

He said in a note that he never actually touched anybody but whether that's true remains to be seen pending investigation, said he saw no way out, he was facing jail and obviously it would have made the media, would have literally ruined the whole family, in a twisted way, he's better off dead but I feel sick saying that, all I remember is who I thought he was, it feels like a morbid nightmare... It's hard to separate the fact that he was family from the fact that he was also a pedophile.
