My little sisters (7 and 9) went to a their friends house today with my mother. One of my sisters, the last one to use the washroom, found a camera hidden in there. They also told my dad that the father was "touching them weirdly down there." My sister’s ipad died right before taking a picture of the camera (although pretty smart of her to try that for someone of her age) so there is no evidence with us. if anyone can please suggest something to do i'd greatly appreciate it.
Edit: parents do not want to call the police because they believe arresting him is taking him away from his 4 young children (my dad grew up without a dad and it was hard for him)
Edit 2: my parents won't call the police because they can't comprehend the thought of incest/molesting your own kids as they've never heard of something like that before, so they think he wouldn't do it to his own kids. They also think there is other ways to dealing with this instead of putting him in jail

I'm sorry but what? This is the most confusing bit to me. They don't believe this guy could have molested their kids because they can't fathom him touching his own kids? What?
But also...what lovely universe are they living in that they've never heard of incest or child sexual abuse? Because I would like to live in a universe where it didn't exist.

I don't understand this whole "but what about the consequences for the bad guy" thing. Don't you care about your kids at all? He's a grown-ass man who made the conscious decision to do this. That's HIS problem. Get your babies out of there and report him!
Edit: NAL Their kids' welfare aside, couldn't they be culpable if they don't report him?

The creepiest part is that the man knew, in real time, that the little girl had found the camera and took it from her.
