Predator on the Reservation (full documentary) | FRONTLINE

Never let anyone do a medical exam on your child without you being present. I pray for all victims' healing. 🙏🏽

This guy got 18 years … meanwhile his victims suffer a lifetime of real problems because of his actions. Just think how this changed the trajectory of these boys’ lives, for the worse. People like this need more harsh sentences. I am happy to hear that his pension was taken away but this should be mandatory on all sentencing for this type of crime.

My rapist went to jail for 1 1/2 year even though he abused me for 4 years, and 11 other women including family members of his came forward to say he did the same. Sex crimes will not be taken seriously until people see them as violent, life threatening crimes. Which is exactly what they are

I'm from Pine Ridge Reservation, I remember this whole tragic chapter on the Rez. Parents were talking about it amongst themselves, and I heard about it when I took my son to the hospital. Amazingly the pedophile was still there seeing kids after he was exposed. Dr Butterbtodt was one of the best Drs. to serve the people of the Rez. I had voiced my concerns to about this. He looked like he was furious. He told me " he's got to go" meaning Webber. He told me that legal authorities needed to get involved, but it was going slow. Bill Pourier is largely responsible for this. He's an alcoholic drug user, who only cared about his job at the time. You saw him say it himself. He could have done something early on, but he didn't. Let the spineless weakling carry that burden to hell with him!!!

Anyone who abuses a child — especially sexually, should be charged with attempted murder, in my opinion. Because that’s actually what happens. The perpetrator(s) murder the person you could have been. You feel unlovable, unworthy, tainted, broken — you feel like you’re damaged goods. It warps and distorts your entire sense of sex and intimacy, and shatters every aspect of your life.

I cried. I was never able to get justice for what happened to me at the hands of my great grandfather as a 7 year old boy. He died when I was 12. He had done what he did to me to his entire family and that family circled the wagons. Boys and girls. Daughters and sons. Grandchildren and great grandchildren. I was the first to speak on it and nothing was done by the police. I'm 47. I've been to prison and have a felony all due to alcohol. I was a good christian up until I was 7 and then I just started to spiral down from there. My grades plummeted. I started getting in trouble all the time. Started ditching school. Didn't graduate. Shoplifting and stole a car as a juvenile. Moved on to drugs to stuff the shame, the guilt and pain. Never having any closer to the trauma. I wished so much that he were still alive for so long so that I could take from him what he stole from me. To hurt him. To hurt him bad. To even want to slowly torture him to death. All of which made my spiral down even more depressing. I tried writing a letter to him. To say all the things I couldn't say to him while he was alive and I burned it, hoping it would give me some form of peace or closure. It never did. I went to prison 3 years ago and since I've been out, I've completely grabbed my life by the horns and have been sober from all things, save cigarettes, since. I've been going to church for the first time since I was 16 and have slowly found healing but these scars never go away and they never will. I got joy watching this episode of this POS and it made me feel better. I hope nobody has to ever go through what any of us went through as children. I hope that they finally come up with some way to help us get through the trauma and to let us feel that we're good still and we weren't lying and we matter. A lot of us have ended up in jails and prisons because of the wreckage that comes from sexual abuse who wouldn't have ended up there if this thing doesn't happen. These people do not deserve an opportunity to be placed in protective custody and given protection from their crimes to children. They need to be placed in general population with the other inmates and let the punishment fit the crime. I'm sorry. This not a very christian thing to say but it's the only way to stop most of the abuse from continuing.

Unbelievable! My heart hurts for those boys! Eighteen years is nothing compared to a lifetime of hurt and pain those boys have to endure.

"[The hospital staff would] look at me and I'd just think, 'Someone notice me, someone help.'"

Just crushing.

There’s such a negative stigma attached to boys who are sexually abused, especially when the perpetrator is a male. That has to stop. What they’ve experienced was NOT their fault, and they are never to blame. I pray that all of his victims (I’m sure there are many of them out there who never came forward) find peace and healing. The blame, shame, and guilt belongs to the perpetrator, not you. All of these children lacked guidance, love, stability, and support — and now they are left with a tangled web that is intertwined with trauma and pain. It’s absolutely heartbreaking!

Nobody ever talks about the victims life being destroyed! This abuse these young boys experienced didn’t end all those years ago, it lead to the state of their lives today. For instance this particular young man, in prison and with tattoos, if he hadn’t experienced that trauma AND the systemic complacency to it, his entire life would’ve been on a different path. The abuser isn’t only culpable for the act of abuse itself, but the traumatic path it then puts these victims on!

Shame on the people who didn’t do anything to stop this monster!! He will get his sentence in prison!! Prayers to his victims and their families 🙏🏻

We all know he was not the ONLY one. Prayers up for the survivors and for those who did not make it with us! :(

Absolutely more people need to be charged! Everybody who knew and didn’t say anything should be charged to the fullest!

When I worked for the IHS, Crownpoint Navajo Reservation, whenever I reported one of those horrific physicians, therapists, professional staff, they were questioned, found guilty and fired from Crownpoint. Word spreads quickly on the Reservation and my patients and others came to me with their complaints. Damn that IHS.

My mom used to be a substitute teacher at Pine Ridge and I had the honor of being able to attend school there as well for a short time. I recall hearing whispers about this but being young I didn’t understand what it meant. Seeing this breaks my heart for all of the victims of that monster.

Mr. Joe Four Horns is a hero that saved numerous children from molestation by Weber. Be at peace sir.

I’m physically sick listening to this story when I imagine myself in the those kids shoes. They were assaulted by their doctor. Then on top of it, so many adults around this situation kept quiet! How fucking scary that message must of felt for an 11-12 year old child.

This is unconscionable and consequences need to be handed out to those who allowed and enabled this. It reminds me of the Catholic Church coverup in response to child sexual abuse. Not addressing this at all levels is unacceptable.

when the fourhorn mother cry and the rear admiral cry , I cant hold in my tears.

The Whistleblower act needs to be properly and actively posted around every Government institution from the township all the way up to every single PD and in DC
