History repeats, endlessly!

Anyone recall the EPIDEMIC of Child Daycare abuse accusations (1980-90s)? Remember the ‘term of art’ referred to as “recovered / repressed memories” from very young children? Remember how it later became evident that while a very small number of these child abuse cases were real, a great number of the accusations came from children browbeaten and pushed to make accusations in order to appease their ‘adult friends’!

Any similarity? Of course not! /sarc

That was the McMartin Daycare hoax, which was the costliest trial in American history. It produced NO convictions, and, I think the son of the principle spent 5 years in prison. The Psychiatrists and psychologists who put the outrageously fantastic False-Memories in those children’s heads should’ve been brought up on child abuse charges, themselves.
