I don't want to bury this

The police in Pennsylvania say that there is no objective confirmation that the perpetrator in the murder of five Amish girls actually committed the sexual abuse of his relatives. Maybe he wanted to, but the alleged victims say he didn't do it. The police believe them. I don't know at this late date how it could be proven physically one way or another, it would depend on a lot of factors.

It makes the second high profile false confession of sexual abuse in hte news lately, the earlier one being the JonBenet Ramsey false confession.

What I said before about effective treatment for the mentally ill stands still, you have to be mentally ill to confess to something like that if ytou didn't do it, and sick to do it in reality too.
