4. I wonder how much was the money/access he had

And that he was able to finagle that 13 month sentence making it seem like he couldn't have been doing anything that wrong.

But yes, you would think pleading guilty for child prostitution would result in a lot of unanswered phone calls.

You're hardly alone in giving the wrong person the benefit of the doubt, I've definitely done it for a guy who went on to kill his family. It's easier than many of us think. Abusers are often very good at putting on the good face in public.
