This week, Fox News is releasing a documentary titled, "In the Valley of Sin." It reveals the sex hysteria that happened in Wenatchee, Washington and elsewhere across the United States in the 1980s and 1990s.

The Fox promo reveals,

• In the mid-90s, the Robersons were arrested and charged with raping their four-year-old daughter and then were ultimately acquitted in the Wenatchee, Washington "witch hunt." The couple called the allegations a total "nightmare."

During the course of this Witch Hunt, dozens of parents and child-care workers were wrongfully accused, charged, and convicted. According to the National Registry of Exonerations, 58 persons were wrongfully convicted of child sex abuse. And that number is probably an under-count.

The Child Sex Abuse Witch Hunt, which was later refuted, was based on the investigative mantra, "Believe the Child." And now we have "Start By Believing."

So why haven't we learned from the tragic lessons of the past? Why is the Department of Justice continuing to fund this guilt-presuming investigative ideology?

Sincerely,
