In 2000, a respected middle-aged Virginia man began to collect child pornography and sexually molest his 8-year-old stepdaughter. He knew it was wrong and tried to hide it, but he felt compelled. The night before his sentencing, he had a severe migraine. He was found to have a benign tumor in the orbitofrontal area of his brain, in a region known to regulate sexual and social behavior. The tumor was removed, and he returned to normal. A few months later, however, his interest in young girls rekindled. An exam showed the tumor had grown back. It was removed, and again he returned to normal. Was he responsible for his actions?
