Investigators reportedly obtained more than 8,000 videos and photos of female infants and toddlers being sexually abused over the course of 8 years by Randall Tilton; spanning over three states -- California, New Hampshire, and Connecticut.

Tilton reportedly violently raped the infants and filmed the abuse before uploading videos to the dark web. Furthermore, he raped and recorded videos of a seven-year-old girl whose mother he met on a dating app. Tilton was also accused of taking pornographic photos of a Navy comrade's four-year-old daughter at a barbeque.

Speaking to investigators, Tilton revealed that he had abused his first infant victim more than 300 times. Prosecutors said that his rapes became increasingly violent and a video of his abuse was viewed more than 100,000 times on the dark web. The Navy sailor reportedly bragged on dark web forums about how much he enjoyed doing what he did.

According to prosecutors, Tilton wrote a letter from prison to someone he considers his grandfather. In it, he reportedly explained how much he enjoyed the abuse and in disturbing detail. "Tilton's own words, captured in comments he made in forums on the dark web and chilling letters sent from prison, demonstrate that he reveled in the abuse and brutality he inflicted," Gifford wrote.

According to prosecutors, the abuse only ended with Tilton's arrest. He was sentenced to only 210 years in prison and has to pay back 900k in restitution to his victims.

Do you think most people's romantic "love" to each other is based on superficial conditional things first (height, money, good looks in men, or hot body in women)?

Or is it that most people who end up in long term relationships are "truly meant for each other" and would've found each other, regardless of looks, height, social status, age, etc?

Notice I said MOST (60 to 90% of people), not all. Obviously, my answer is no. I'm physically unattractive and have literally nothing going for me in looks/physical, so I can confirm that "personality alone" isn't enough to make "love happen."

But that's just what I think. What do you think?
