Trial And Police Investigation Report
In his sentencing, Judge Cutts said Schofield exploited the victim’s naivety for his own sexual desires and that “it was wrong in every way that you acted the way you did.”
He felt compelled to do as he pleased, stuck and powerless to escape. For many years he didn’t tell anyone because he thought he couldn’t. You stole his chance to be the happy young man he should have been.
After Tim’s arrest, the victim said, “Before Tim was arrested, I felt like I had no freedom.”
“I was often overwhelmed with worry, tension, and terror. I was caught in a vicious cycle of worry and anxiety over the repeated abuse. I wasn’t feeling well until Tim was arrested. It wasn’t until Tim was arrested that I felt free, free to be myself, happy and calm.”
