    What about all those people locked up in the 1980s for supposed running Satanistic cults killing babies and virgins? Turned out that the juries in those trials convicted and the appeals courts upheld the convictions despite there being no evidence other than "recovered" memories. It was only when it was discovered that the "recovered" memories were total fantasy cooked up by incompetent therapists were the poor innocent people released.

    Courts and juries make mistakes which is why there is an appeal system.
