Now check the review at Amazon by Folantin of the book:
"The story is narrated by middle-aged Humbert Humbert. He's a pedophile--although he's tried denying it, tried disguising it, and tried channeling his baser instincts, but as luck would have it, Humbert finds himself as the lodger at the home of a buxom, lonely widow, Charlotte Haze and 12-year-old daughter, Lolita. Humbert doesn't particularly even like Lolita--he actually finds her rather dull, but she becomes a vessel for the fantasies left by Humbert's unfulfilled first love affair."
Although he phrased it poorly, Lolita is a very popular and well-known book. I would not consider it evidence per se. Hell, I've read the book. It's pretty good, and Nabokov really does interesting things with making you rationalize along with the Narrator.
My point was definitely more of how have you never heard of Lolita, not that it wasn't relevant. It isn't conclusive evidence but certainly I wouldn't associate myself with that damned book.

Interesting! Look at the book "Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov":

Lolita is a popular book idiot. I know a lot of people who have read it, though it is regarded as unsettling

Ohh, yeah, definitely not relevant when investigating a pedophilia ring... Sleep CTR.
