My oldest brother was discovered to have child porn on his computer when he was in his 20s. This was ~15 years ago. He also groomed me when I was 10.
I told my parents after realizing that something was very wrong and that it was getting worse. My parents kicked him out but they continued to be friendly to him, frequently meeting with him for dinner or coffee.
My older sister, who continues to be his best friend - completely took his side. She accused 10 year old me of lying. Currently she has 2 kids who she's let him babysit and basically raise from infancy.
They're religious so they believe that he's forgiven in the eyes of god, and he confessed to my parents that he is a pedophile. I've completely cut him out of my life and haven't spoken to him since I was 10 although there have been repeated attempts by my mom to re-integrate him into the family.
Since then I've tried to forget about the whole situation as there wasn't much more that I could do. Recently I've discovered that him and his girlfriend are planning on having a child through one of my family members. After I told my family member what had happened 15 years ago, we agreed that she should be notified as this family member had her contact information.
My parents, on the other hand, think that he's harmless now and he's been completely forgiven and accepted by them. Once they realized my family member and I were going to tell extended members of our family (specifically children and teenagers that he spent time around), they got pissed and accused me of stirring up unnecessary drama. My sister got pissed and screamed at me for meddling in her family's affairs.
TLDR: The past 24 hours have been a shitstorm of my older sister and parents screaming threats at me if I dare "destroy" my oldest brothers family in the case I tell his gf that he's a pedophile. They think that the past is in the past and that he's changed.
Update: Turns out my older sister and this pedophile went out for a cycling trip with her teenage daughter and 13 yr old son today. This was after she confiscated her kids phones because the teenage daughter was trying to reach out to me and had questions. Ps. He exclusively follows the teenage daughter (and not the son) on all her social media platforms incl tiktok.
