Is DR1 trying to expose what might be a witch hunt in Boca de Yuma? In yesterday's DR1, we learned that, amongst the accusations of abuse are included a claim by a 6-year-old of wild orgies including sex with pet dogs. For me, that raised an eyebrow. Then, today, we learn:
"Currently, there are four people incarcerated for charges related to the mistreatment of children at the orphanage: the former cook (a 53-year-old woman who is serving a sentence of 15 years for the rape of nine children), two other women and one man, who have been implicated in the most recent rapes of 13 minors that emerged last March. The four former orphanage workers were apparently unknown to each other before meeting within the prison's walls."
This sounds suspeciously like one of the abuse panics that afflicted the US in the 1980s. That is: Extremely young children making claims of large scale, elaborate and spectacular abuse plots perpetrated by males AND females. The only thing missing are satanists. In the US, most of these cases turned out to be frauds perpetrated by overly ambitious law enforcement or persons with an axe to grind against one or more of the accused. But it took the criminal justice system years to adjust to the idea that children can be led to make these claims, and many of the wrongly accused spent years in jail.
Statistically speaking, women almost never engage in sexual abuse. Add to that that this case involves THREE women and you have to ask yourself "what are the chances?"
Also, the percentage of people in any society with a predilection to this type of conduct is very small. So, again, what is the chance, what is the probability, that three women who didn't know each other but who were interested in abusing children would all work at the same orphanage?
Because the accused are women, many of the biggest do-gooders out there who might otherwise believe accusations from children no matter how incredible and how unlikely based on circumstancial evidence were they directed at men might question this one too.
I truly hope that the PN seek outside help on this one from experts who know how to question these children in a balanced manner to see whether one or more of them are being led into making false accusations.
