It's actually rather unlikely that he would have gone after a child that young (presumably prepubertal) if he also preyed on children who were postpubertal. Generally, if one is attracted to prepubertal children, one is not attracted to those past puberty, or to adults. It's possible the child in question was biologically mature for his chronological age (or whoever reported this may have been guessing his age incorrectly). > Either way, the whole secrecy aspect makes it pretty > revolting, to say the least. It would have been just as revolting had it been out in the open, but then it would have been unlikely to have taken place at all...
