[Alberta's Child]

If someone makes an allegation about any kind of assault but never reported it to the police at the time, then I am inclined to dismiss it as a fabrication in almost every case.

The only exceptions might involve allegations against political figures where the victims were hesitant about reporting it to law enforcement because their attackers WERE "the law" in many respects.

At this point, it isn’t whether or not the charges are bogus. I just don’t understand why WH staff vetting wasn’t completed months ago. Not having it done is what left the opening for charges that couldn’t be answered.
