Are they asking you to be around or are you worried for the kids?

I would cut ties w/the family members who support him. Point blank! I would explain the horrors of what he's done and that's that. Anyone who thinks a pedophile can change into a nice human is absolutely stupid. Pedophilia is a lifelong condition and can't ever be cured. He's a danger to every child walking the earth. Why are pedophiles not imprisoned forever? There is no reason whatsoever that a pedophile should be allowed in society. This man rapes children. You are correct to cut him out of your life. Though knowing how dangerous he is, please see what you can do to get him arrested at the first sign of an attempt on a child.
I'm not sure why the OP was deleted, because the OP has every reason to feel invalidated and hurt by her family members. It's a horrible thing to have a family that sides w/the creepy animal and completely invalidates your pain and suffering.

I don’t know what is happening exactly in this thread. I’m going off the post Elaine quoted. And you know what? If my grandfather was a pedophile and had done things to me and all my female cousins when we were little, and I now found out that my cousins were willingly allowing him around their young children, I would be horribly graphic and blunt about what exactly that man had done to me. Sometimes humans need to smacked in the face with graphic details of horrible things for it to sink in. And then I would point blank ask them if they were ok with that happened to their children, and point to each one of them. If they still didn’t listen, I would cut all ties with them. My heart couldn’t take it. I would not be able to function knowing that they were allowing this monster into their lives and what happened to “me” could be happening to those kids. This. No area for compromise here.

So sorry, everyone. I didn't mean to delete my original post. I think I sleep deleted when I was trying to edit.

How old are the kids at the Uncle's house where he's spending time? If they are young, that's who I'd be most worried about at this point. Was he ever charged? Does he have a record of any kind that prevents him from being in the presence of minors? I'd be inclined to make sure those kids knew to be wary of him, if you can do that without influencing your ability to stay connected with them. Everyone in the branch of family are older, except for one 2 two year old girl. She isn't old enough for him to be interested. I reached out to her father (my cousin) and begged him to never leave her alone with my father. My cousin said he wouldn't and that he doesn't have anything to do with my father anyway. My father doesn't have a record of any kind. He worked for years as part of the justice system and then worked in a mental health facility. When my former stepsister accused him, the judge had her go to a therapist. The therapist told the court that his opinion was that she was lying. No one mentioned that my father and the therapist knew each other and hung out.
