As I understand in the original Avila case, the jury did the best it could ... the girls came forth only months later, and there was (as I understand) no physical evidence. It boiled down to their word, and the words of children -- as witness testimony in a crime must be considered dubious testimony. But I am not ay all informed about that case beyond what I just said, and may be far from the mark.

Thanks for your post!

I do not know very much at all about the Avila trial. I only raised it as an example because Samantha's mother blamed them for the death of her child.
