The Vindication Obsession

He freely loved her without kinship or expectation. She needed a father, and he fulfilled that role. Such was the love of police sergeant Brad Glover for the daughter of his girlfriend with whom he shared an apartment for three years. He not only met the child’s immediate needs, but he also began planning for her future. The five year old child’s sperm donor father raped her during a weekend visitation, and afterward he cleverly covered up his crime. A slew of unfortunate and damning circumstances convinced a jury to find Glover guilty of the rape. Serving a sentence of forty years in prison, he nearly died at the hands of a gang held together by hatred of cops and pedophiles. The state paroled him to save his life. Living as a registered sex offender in the most dangerous category, deserted by his family, his future looked so bleak that the thought of living it made him sick at his stomach. He only knew one thing to do. It was an old family tradition. He went to work.
