Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, "trust me bro" is not a valid argument.

It's your last sentence that perfectly points out the flaw in your logic. There will always be variations on your "perfect pedo" that you've created in your head that would warrant some consideration regarding punishments and rights.
Being a person that was molested as a child, I find you just choosing one type of predator absurd and dismissive of every other victim that doesn't fall into your "special victim" classification. I don't think the person that offended against me was any worse or better than someone that did it to an adult or committed elder abuse, etc.
Well yes, this is all a hypothetical, I'm not a lawyer or going to write a whole 300 page bill on the ins and outs so yes there's some assumptions that need to be made
I wasn't dismissing other victims all rape is evil and abhorrent, but rape against a child who's brain isn't developed and doesnt have a strong foundation of the world is especially cruel
I disagree with you there. It's all equally cruel. In my case, my young age allowed me to recover from something that perhaps I wouldn't have as an adult. If it had to happen, I'm glad it happened at the age(8ish or so) that it did.
I'm glad you were able to recover, and I'm genuinely sorry you had to go through that
Your right, maybe it's all equally evil
