Belgian police widen probe into child sex scandal
BRUSSELS, Belgium (CNN) -- In a growing child sex scandal,
police charged the wife of suspected pedophile Marc Dutroux
as an accomplice in the abduction and imprisonment of several
girls.
Police now are searching for two girls Dutroux admitted he
kidnapped last year. Over the past few days, Dutroux has led
police to two abducted, sexually-abused girls and the bodies
of two 8-year olds.
Belgians are outraged that Dutroux, earlier sentenced to 13
years in prison for rape and child abuse, was released 10
years early for good behavior.
