The proverbial hundred eyes(and then some) of Argos are on this.

Take some time to yourself, eat, sleep, maintain your friendships/relationships.

It's not uncommon for even the police to rotate their investigators when it comes to pedophillia cases, for the very reason of giving them a chance to rest and collect themselves - alongside avoiding the risk of indoctrination. This is heavy shit and even those with a strong fortitude can find themselves broken by it, stay strong friend.

@argosciv it is not about risk of indoctrination. It is about seeing theings that so deeply crush your soul, it fucks with your mind ,we are rotated out for mental health so you do not do somehing dangerous to yourself or the perps. But yes one year on ,one year off. 290 sex crimes units.

Sorry, didn't mean to say anything misleading there.

Thank you for the clarification :)

No problem just a clarification. so it is understood. I understand everyone's emotional trauma over this and he is doing the right thing. Seeing this kind of abuse eats at your soul and sanity.

It really does, the past few days have been quite taxing on myself also - sometimes I think that perhaps the only reason i've not gone off the reserve, is because this kinda stuff broke me long ago, to the point that nothing here is surprising.

Some of it is new to me, sure enough, but I'm no longer shocked by it in the sense that I have difficulty believing it to be plausible.

That said, I'd have to say that another thing keeping me strong, is the constant reminder that thousands of people are looking into this at any given time - that many of those people are doing far more to contribute, than myself.

Although I find it impossible to work with certain people on voat, I know the majority has good intent and the fact that you all understand that every second that we sit, talk, investigate,laugh with friends or family,sleep or have fun ,children are going through extreme pain, sometimes the pain is so bad they no longer even cry, They just lay there. I have seen this. So do the good work ,take breaks as needed, self-care is extremely important.

I've nothing to add to what you've said there.
