Ummm. Accompanying your child into the police dept. after seeing his face plastered on the evening news as a suspected rapist, is nice, but doesn't exactly testify to caring, involved parents.
If what you're saying is what causes rapists, then by the same token then good parents must prevent broken children, right? We've never seen anyone with involved parents turn out to be serial rapists or killers? Not once huh?
What you said is that "parents who care" which means that you think many if not most parents don't care. If I don't hover over my child like I'm a secret service agent, then I obviously don't care about my child.
What this 13 year old did was awful, but trying to divine some greater political meaning behind it is almost as awful. Sick people do sick things, trying to fix them with scientific study of the brain and how and why we do things is great. Telling parents to be scared and to lock their children away doesn't help.
I used to take my little guys to play areas like this on weekend mornings to give mom some quiet time and yeah there are a few hidey spots in the play tower but I could have heard if there were a problem.
If I ever caught someone pull something like this I'd have killed them on the spot and let the police swab the corpse for dna.
Honestly. The teen needs to die. There needs to be some investigation of the family of the teen too.

He's a minor. We'll never know because all the court records will be sealed.

I will err on the side of safety. That would be my recommendation for others.
Raise your kids as you see fit. But if you are so comfortable with it, why are you so defensive and taking my statement so personally?

lock him up and throw the key away. This kid will commit more crimes as he gets older. harsh but it's the truth.
