As you all know the news has been talking about the recent findings of two boys in Missouri. Now the parents of the oldest child abducted four years ago, believe that he was sexually abused by the abductor. To make matters worse after 4 years of all of the trauma for that child he is being asked to testify in court. My personal opinion is that the boy has been through enough. Between the media video, and police records that should be enough to put this guy behind bars. What are your opinions on this. Should they allow the child to testify or not. Thanks for the feedback.

I think that he should be allowed to testify. He consented to the interview on Oprah yesterday, and from the little bit that I saw he was fairly calm and composed. He has been through hell, and it will be very painful for him to have to go through a trial, but it may actually benefit him in the long run by helping him to face what has happened to him. He has a lot of healing to do. That guy deserves to be locked up for ever with no possibility of parole.

This kid has really been through hell for the last 4 years and even though testifying ig going to be a horrible experience for him (I'm sure the defence attorney is going to have a field day with him), I really think he should testify. Maybe they can have his abductor removed from the courtroom during the testimony so that he doesn't have to see him. I hope this sicko gets put away for good.

This kid will never be left alone if he dosen't testify. Let him testify and get on with the case. Thatøs my opinion. :-)
