The little i know:
Before a person can properly heal from trauma they need to feel safe. Children who are abused by an adult figure even once they are adults will still be very frighted by that person (will often feel like a little child again). Very often when their perpetrator is in jail it can provide the victims a safe feeling that will allow them to heal easier.
The way that children react to trauma vs adults is very different.
Although knowing how severely their perpetrator was punished (or at all)might have no clinical effect, having their perpetrator locked up will definitely help with healing.
