well I did it, I finally called the wife to be of the man who molested my step-sister. I feel even worse. She said she already knew about it and doesn't care. How can she not care? She had a few choice words for me then hung up. I also revealed who I was, so now I expect there to be some negative family fall-out as a result. But I guess I do feel better in the sense that at least she knows. But I just can't get my head around the idea that she doesn't care. There are now 2 children being (or about to be) sexually abused, and there is nothing that's going to stop it. What kind of world is this.

All you can do is all you can do. Sorry it didn't turn out better, but you can at least know that you did your part. If those kids have some adult that they can go to if they need it they have a better chance of being okay. I don't know if you are in a position to be able to befriend them, but I hope somebody can. Having a good relationship with a supportive adult is one of the best things to minimize the risk.
