I mean most of these warped individuals (pedo's) would be content with their condition being classed as a mental illness as it helps them avoid prison, gets them house arrest, or lighter punishment. But there's going to be someone that makes that leap of condition, then all bets are off.
I guess it already happens. Some countries in Europe (Netherlands and France I think) will consider circumstances like age and basically allow this.
