Leanna and Oprah
"I have one intention behind this show," Oprah says, "and that is that somebody of the millions of you who watch will see something that snaps you into reality. … Child molesters are in your neighborhoods, your schools, your churches, and, as you'll see today, maybe even sleeping in your bed."

When Leanna graduated from high school, she was a single mother looking for love and security. She fell in love with a man named James Perry. They married and had a baby girl together. Life seemed good. "He was an awesome dad," Leanna says. But as years passed, the marriage became rocky. James was often out of the house and Leanna suspected that he was having an affair. When he was at home, he was locked in a room with his computer.

"Now that I look back, he always made time for the kids," Leanna says. "It was a good thing until you find out why."
