One thing that's still not clear is the medical status of the 12 month old. When my wife worked for a non-prof custodial care/counseling org, she encountered a 12 year old who had been molested as a baby, and had a permanently damaged cervix from the encounter. That kind of thing you have to explain later in life. Nobody did with this girl, which was why she ended up in care with a whale of a lot of problems.
