Have you read Liddy's "Will"? I admire his father's intelligence, but he's not completely sane either. He's also not completely forthright in his culpability within Watergate, and his admiration of Oliver North (who he must see as simpatico to himself) is stomach churning.
Since we are in the PG section, one does have to question what knowledge, or participation, the elder Liddy may have had within the intelligence circles he was involved with.
I remember there was a part in the book where he talks about a big reason why he chose the woman he married is that he wanted someone with "good stock" to give him children. I interpreted that as white and German/Aryan. Kinda ironic now.
Healthy of body does not equate to that of the mind/spirit. However, there must be something to the mind affecting the body, as so many pedophiles have that weird upper-lip thing going on.
It's worth noting though that Liddy has four other children who've managed to stay out of the newspapers. Pedophilia is a catastrophic failure in one's integrity and difficult to imagine just how it comes into being. It works against societal norms, and counters integral familial instinct. In the same way, it's difficult to see how anyone could ever recover, once they've transgressed those lines.

From the complaint, it seem he was into images of overt abuse.

I read one article, I think NY Daily news, where they said it was images of a 6 month-old.
