And perversely, the damage is not limited to the adults who were wrongfully imprisoned. The kids, many barely toddlers, whose testimony was carefully coached and manipulated also suffered.
When Justice is finally served, as in the case you mention, every child who “helped” put them away has to take a crash course in reality.
Their “memories” which were insidiously implanted, carefully nurtured, and ceremoniously confirmed, are proved to be false. The cognitive dissonance is crushing.
It’s a known bug, but we don’t even have a good workaround yet.
