I think that it was wonderful that the brother told his mother and that she acted on the information...many times instances of incest and abuse continue for years because children do not have the courage to speak out.

I agree with Renee. I hope that the mother gets the counseling for the daughter and the son that they will so desperately need now because of that monster. And that the man is locked up for a very long time and the family get through this without alot of mental scars. So sad for the little girl. Sadly noted, thanks June.
