some times the good guys win though. I just was involved in a case where the mom accused the dad of abusing her for years and then abusing the child. She now has one hour of supervised visitation per week with the child.

I worked on a number of "parental child abuse" cases. A guy would come in and say his soon-to-be Ex-missus had called the police and accused him of molesting their young daughter (more often, her daughter by a previous sperm donor).
He would be charged and, of course, lose his job and residence.
The daughters story would be so absolutely full of holes that only idiot prosecutors would pursue (but Arizona has their share)!
Four months later, the wifey-poo would suddenly realize that her sugar daddy's money supply had run out and SHE was broke too.
And about that time the kid would fess up that 'mommy' told her to say those things.
Of over a dozen child molestation cases I worked on, only ONE was credible and went to court.
About 11 broken men and many, MANY broken lives!
My brother, B (26), has full custody of his 7YO son thanks to his mother's drug abuse (meth). CPS fought like heck to keep my nephew in state care instead of giving him to his father. B also has joint custody with his 2YO daughter from a subsequent relationship.
The biases against men have improved, but they still have a far way to go. Follow the money. That's the way it works.
Sounds like this poor guy was in the wrong time & place to get true justice. In the 80's, unfortunately, many a woman's word was gospel.
