Laurie Warhol and Sandra Glenney, the ring leaders of Loudoun County Child Protective Services, are woefully behind the research as false accusations are concerned. They ascribe to the “Believe the Children” mantra. The mantra dictates that when children say they’ve been abused they are to be believed, however when children say nothing happened they are not to be believed.
There has been so much research to refute this, sadly it has fallen upon deaf ears as far as Warhol and Glenney are concerned; they don’t know any of the research nor do any child protection workers. They more than likely have never read the research. Thankfully, we have modern technology to overcome such ignorance. I am glad to provide links to 2 excellent podcasts Uncover and Conviction.

Both podcasts discuss the kickoff of the panic of the 80’s and 90’s, the professionals who perpetuated it and the tactics involved. Important to note, the mental health played a huge role in the sequence of events. Also discussed is the research that debunks that period of time.
Last not least, you will hear from the children who made false accusations and why. They were under immense pressure to accuse adults by social workers and therapists.
