Pedophiles have pedophilia, which is the sexual attraction to young children. This attraction is not a crime, and is extremely stigmatized, so it is unlikely that many pedophiles wish their sexual attractions to be well-known. People have been beaten, lynched, disowned, lost jobs, housing, and family for having the knowledge that they are attracted to children wind up in the wrong hands.
Presuming the asker meant sexual abusers and wanted to know why sexual abusers want to get caught, they may want help, or they may want their victim to receive help.
