I saw a documentary that suggested some modern day witch hunts. The way some
Places have investigate pedophiles has some interesting parallels to the Salem witch trials.

In my hometown there was a witch hunt where a young foster girl went on a ride with a detective and pointed out all these houses around town where pedophiles were living and a bunch of innocent people went to prison based off of lies and suspicion including people in my ward. The detective thought he was uncovering some underground sex ring and he thought there was a pastor at the local church leading it and having huge romps in the church basement. It was the closest thing in my lifetime to what happened in Salem. It’s amazing how fast society will turn on you without evidence if the hysteria is high enough. Duke Lacrosse faced a similar circumstance… fantastic lies can take anybody down.

Just imagine how toast you’d be if that happened to you… some stranger says you molested them and the local cop/detective/DA believes them and will get any forced confession they can get to put you away.

All it takes is a looney kid and an overaggressive cop…..

That’s why I insist on 2 deep leadership. Just to not be accused of anything.
