It happened to a family friend.
There was this great national operation for the arrest of pedophiles, I think it was with the help of anonymous, and two people in my town were arrested, one of them with several toys at home. This family acquaintance was one of them.
Months later he was released. It looks like he was tortured by the jailers daily.
I don’t understand about legal issues, but the process doesn’t exist. Legally, he was not only never accused of pedophilia, but he was never arrested. He is still fighting in court for answers.
Nothing really because something more catastrophic happens that takes light away especially living in a big city
A friend of mine was murdered in high school. It was all over the news and there is a lot of speculation as to what happened. This lasted about a week and as soon as all the hysteria died down, they ruled her death a suicide. Not a shred of evidence points to her committing suicide. Literally nothing matches up. The media started digging up more records and they reopened the case recently. But now that the media is dying down again, they haven’t been working on the case at all. Funny how that works.
Well my church gets (falsley) accused of preaching homophobia (we have the sermon recordings to prove) every so often and our unfortunate pastor who looks after media relations gets seriously slandered in the news and media, but we have kinda just given up and accept that its a regular cycle of abuse. We then just shrug it off as human attacks and go on our business. If that counts as a half-answer.
