Pardon me for sounding naive, but why was dad DAVID W. LAWSON SR, a LIFETIME REGISTERED SEX OFFENDER, allowed anywhere near his 6-year-old daughter? What did anybody think would happen if he had access to her? That they would read Winnie the Pooh together? Somebody in Indiana--not sure who--was enormously reckless and stupid, and now this little girl has paid for it. But then Indiana is famous for its pro-father politics (doesn't matter what kind of father).
