A sad
situation but time heals all wounds and they city will move
on .......That's the reaction of Councillor At Large Shirley McAlary to
her former colleague on Saint John Common Council, Donnie Snook pleading guilty to
so many charges of abusing children he was in the business of helping.
McAlary, who is out and about a lot, concedes she did not suspect Snook of being a pedophile.
Alot
of people who had contact with Snook may be beating themselves over how
they could have been fooled for so long. That's understandable
according to Katina Feggos, Case Manager of Clinical Services at Family
Plus/Life Solutions.
She
says the real focus, though, should not be on what they should have
known or done but on what the individual did to violate their trust.
