They’re still trying to clear their names. More frustrating than creepy, but deserving of a read.

The whole case is just a nightmare.

When you start looking back at Satanic Panic legal cases, it all seem so crazy. It’s hard to believe that this was in my lifetime, and it’s even harder to believe that people still think that was now. For a really good deep dive into some of the child sexual abuse cases that were going on at the time, check out, “Satan’s Silence: Ritual Abuse and the Making of a Modern American Witch Hunt” by Debbie Nathan and Michael Snedeker. I remember some of this. And there are people that still defend the witch hunts.
