There are registered child sex offenders on parole in cities throughout Texas. I know many. They gave my (old) friend deferred adjudication first time around but now he's serving 30 years. And he's older than fifty and was married.
If it's a family thing they're less harsh on them and even then it depends mostly on a grand jury's and DA's resolve which varies tremendously. It helps if you call and constantly pressure and bug them. Bug the DA.
Depends on what mood they're in. Once I was slippin up rabble-rousing publicly, a deputy sheriff happened by and said no worries, nobody's going to jail today, it's Friday. They are subject to same infirmities as the rest of us.

Texas may not appear liberal on paper, but I worked as volunteer for a sexual abuse hotline and was trained that rural areas are prone to high incest and abuse stats. While living in Copperas Cove and Killeen I learned that the army bases have high crime - sexual abuse of all kinds being high on the list.

No TX ain't liberal yet. But folks from Cali keep moving here. Maybe they're refugees from there.
