Pedophiles Groom Parents

At six-foot-two and 245 pounds, Karl Toft says he was a man his child victims would never resist.

"Here I am, this big hulk of a man, standing over a 12-year-old kid, looking down at him and saying, 'We're going to bed together.' And the fact that he didn't say no told me that it was OK with him, so therefore it was OK with me."

The 71-year-old, released from an Edmonton halfway house in December 2005, spent a decade in prison for sexually assaulting more than 100 boys, most while employed as a guard at a reform school in Kingsclear.

He also assaulted boys from the age of 16 while he worked as a Boy Scout leader.

The pedophile told the Edmonton Sun he also got away with many of the sex assaults by befriending parents and their children.
