Just a side note about abusers: they will position themselves anywhere that gives some sense of authority over vulnerable populations, religious orgs, boys/girls clubs, police, government, nursing homes, politics, charities; and while some is intentional, some do it on some base, low-level, unconscious instinct, that is there is no prefrontal executive function going on there, rather just some amygdala level stuff. And the animal instinct people may be easier to rehab, in a better world.
