Should I tell my friends brother in law that my friend is a pedophile?

[Anonymous]

Around a year ago my friend told me that he was feeling very guilty about something. I asked him what it was, and he said he dated an 11 year old when he was around 18. I thought he said that he was into minors as young as 6. His sister who I barely know has two young daughters my friend is around sometimes. I felt like I should tell his sister so I did. She said they would take precautions around him. I said that i THINK he was into girls as young as 6. I couldnt remember exactly, and thats what i told her. A while after telling her, I was beginning to sort of question my memory. Im 98-99% certain he told me he dated an 11 year old. I'm not so sure he said that he's into 6 year olds. In fact, i dont really think he said that anymore. At the time of telling his sister, I was sure, but as time whent on, I'm questioning myself. His sister is married, and I was thinking about telling her husband who I don't know at all. I'm reluctant though. I'm pretty positive about him dating an 11 year old, but im afraid that if I tell my friends bil that he will be like "yeah I know, my wife told me", and then he might be like "and he's into 6 year olds too?" I could say I'm not sure, but I said in the message to his sister that he was, so I could either say yes, or I don't know. I don't want to say no, because then maybe I would lose credibility and than they'd think him dating an 11 year Is untrue. At least that's what my therapist told me would happen.

It is important to be careful when making allegations of this nature, as they can have serious consequences for both the accused individual and the person making the allegations. It is also important to prioritize the safety and well-being of any potential victims, and to take steps to prevent harm or abuse.

If you are uncertain about the details of what your friend told you, it may be best to refrain from making further allegations or disclosures until you have more concrete information. It may also be helpful to speak with a trusted advisor or professional, such as a therapist or legal expert, for guidance on how to proceed.

It is important to remember that making allegations without sufficient evidence or information can be damaging and harmful, and can also expose you to legal or personal risks. It may be best to focus on supporting and advocating for victims of abuse and working to prevent harm in your own community and relationships.
