      From personal experience, yes. My convicted abuser husband was allowed to continue to abuse my kids. They struggle with mental illness.

      My friend’s husband who was convicted of sexually abusing his children was given visitation with them. Two out of three are now dead after struggling with mental illness their whole lives because of their abuser’s right to continue access. He’s walking free after serving a fraction of his time.

      There are thousands of other examples that don’t come from personal experience.
