This is almost a year old...but it is important.

It's a sexual assault. And under the new kiddy porn laws in Canada, depending on her age and the age of the other children in the room, he could very well be charged with that as well. If this is American, then there is some Interference or Sexual Touching laws that would apply.

There is definitely something to charge this fellow with. Forensics could recover the tapes through a search of his home and property. Images on digital or analog media can still have residual data left on them that may not be apparent.

Even when you delete stuff, it's not really gone...just the reference to the location of that data is wiped out.

There were no witnesses.

In most abuse cases there are no witnesses, except for the perpetrator and victim. Imagine how clear cut most child sexual assault cases would be IF there were victims.

This is a situation where you need to expressly speak out. This is disgusting behavior that should not be tolerated. If the victims remain silent, then this stuff will keep going on, and people will keep being victimized and have to suffer unnecessarily.
