People get praised for acts of pure selflessness, or they are encouraged to do so by the rules of their society, or by protecting someone they love and receive some satisfaction from protecting.
People die for their families, friends, countries, etc., all the time and that makes them feel good. It's not often people die for a stranger. And if they do, they get lauded as heroes posthumously or at least have the satisfaction of doing something they think is "right," if they didn't I doubt they would.

He needs to learn that lil Larry will never be the same again after this painful intrusion. Larry's family asks for privacy and respect while they cope with this tragic molestation.
