L'affaire McMartin est l'une des affaires judiciaires les plus célèbres et controversées de l'histoire des États-Unis, notamment en raison de sa complexité, de sa durée et de l'impact médiatique qu'elle a eu. Cette affaire est souvent citée comme un exemple de panique morale et de dysfonctionnement judiciaire. Voici les détails :Contexte de l'AffaireL'affaire McMartin a commencé en 1983 à Manhattan Beach, en Californie, lorsque Judy Johnson, une mère locale, a accusé Ray Buckey, un enseignant de l'école maternelle McMartin Preschool, d'avoir abusé sexuellement de son fils de deux ans. Ray Buckey était le petit-fils de la fondatrice de l'école, Virginia McMartin, et travaillait à l'école avec plusieurs autres membres de sa famille.Accusations et Enquête InitialeAprès les accusations de Judy Johnson, la police a mené une enquête préliminaire et a envoyé des lettres à 200 familles dont les enfants fréquentaient la McMartin Preschool, les informant des accusations et leur demandant de questionner leurs enfants sur d'éventuels abus. Cela a conduit à un grand nombre de signalements d'abus sexuels présumés, souvent très graphiques et incluant des accusations de rituels sataniques, de tunnels secrets sous l'école, et même de sacrifices d'animaux.Techniques d'Interrogatoire et Élargissement des AccusationsLes interrogatoires des enfants ont été menés par l'Institut de traitement et d'évaluation des enfants (Children's Institute International), une organisation qui a utilisé des techniques d'interrogatoire controversées. Ces techniques, souvent suggestives et poussant les enfants à "se rappeler" des abus, ont été critiquées plus tard pour avoir potentiellement induit de faux souvenirs chez les enfants.En conséquence, les accusations se sont multipliées et ont impliqué plusieurs membres de la famille McMartin et d'autres employés de l'école. Les allégations sont devenues de plus en plus fantastiques, incluant des récits d'enfants volants, de sorcières, et d'actes sataniques, ce qui a alimenté une panique morale à l'échelle nationale sur les abus rituels sataniques.Procès et DéroulementLe procès McMartin a commencé en 1987, après plusieurs années d'enquêtes et de préparations. Il est devenu le procès criminel le plus long et le plus coûteux de l'histoire des États-Unis à l'époque, durant près de sept ans et coûtant environ 15 millions de dollars.Malgré la durée et l'ampleur du procès, il n'y a eu aucune condamnation. En 1990, après trois ans de procès, Ray Buckey a été acquitté de 52 des 65 accusations portées contre lui, et les jurés se sont retrouvés dans une impasse sur les autres chefs d'accusation. Un deuxième procès a été organisé, mais il s'est également terminé par un non-lieu en 1990.Impact et ConséquencesL'affaire McMartin a eu des répercussions profondes et durables sur la société américaine et le système judiciaire :1. Doute sur les témoignages d'enfants : Cette affaire a soulevé de nombreuses questions sur la fiabilité des témoignages d'enfants, en particulier lorsqu'ils sont obtenus par des méthodes d'interrogatoire suggestives ou coercitives.2. Panique morale : Elle a contribué à une période de panique morale aux États-Unis dans les années 1980, connue sous le nom de "Satanic Panic", où de nombreuses autres accusations similaires d'abus rituels sataniques ont émergé à travers le pays, souvent sans preuves substantielles.3. Réformes judiciaires : L'affaire a conduit à des réformes dans la manière dont les témoignages d'enfants sont recueillis et utilisés dans les procès, ainsi qu'à une plus grande prise de conscience des risques d'hystérie collective et de faux souvenirs.4.

(Content Trigger Warning: Child Sexual Abuse Allegations.)On May 12, 1983 Judy Johnson dropped off her 2 1/2 year old son, Billy, for his first day at the popular family owned and operated McMartin Preschool. Three month later, Judy Johnson (who was later diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia) would make a call to police to report that her son had been molested by not only her estranged husband, but also a staff member at the McMartin preschool, 25 year old Ray Buckey. At one point in the case, it was publicized the seven teachers at McMartin had committed 115 sexual crimes, which later expanded to 321 counts. This case would be one of the most expensive criminal trials in American history, lasting 7 years and costing $15 million…with no convictions. Did we mention this bizarre case was during the Satanic Panic era?SOURCE MATERIALS:McMartin Preschool: Anatomy of a Panic | Retro Report | The New York TimesThe McMartin Preschool Abuse Trial: An AccountThe McMartin Preschool trials - HISTORYThe McMartin Preschool Case: Satanic Panic and Child Sexual Abuse Allegations - A&E True Crime30 Years Later, Key Figures Reflect On McMartin Preschool Case - CBS Los AngelesThe McMartin Preschool Abuse Trial: An AccountDay-care sex-abuse hysteria - WikipediaNational Sexual Assault Hotline.

We reach the end of this tragic case arising out of the great satanic panic of the 1980s. Peggy McMartin Buckey and her son Ray Buckey finally get to face their accusers.
What happens when we as a society fall into the trappings of what some call a moral panic? There have been very few of these mass hysterias recorded, but one which happened during my childhood, shaped me in a way that even I may never have expected. I am talking about the Satanic Panic of the 1980s which led to over 12 thousand unsubstantiated claims of Satanic ritual abuse.

Don’t be overwhelmed by today’s events in your business, family, or our politics. Seek understanding of the original causes. A tyrannical state, through hysterically emotional courtrooms, ruthlessly ambitious and corrupt prosecutors, and political-wind-sniffing judges, frequently destroys the lives of law-abiding American citizens. Sarah Good and 4 other innocent women were executed in Massachusetts 1692 for being witches! With no conviction ever, Ray Buckey spent 5 years of his life in jail in the McMartin preschool case in Southern California during the 1980s. Members of the Amirault family of Massachusetts spent even longer in jail for crimes they never committed in the shamefully notorious Fells Acres Day Care Center case in the same decade. In 1987, Judge Robert Bork had his career and reputation severely damaged by U.S. senators led by Ted Kennedy preaching sanctimoniously to Judge Bork and denouncing him for imperiling the lives of women. This, less than 20 years after Kennedy had killed Mary Jo Kopechne. In 1991 Judge Clarence Thomas was subjected to what he called a ‘high tech lynching’ with senators destroying his reputation on the unsubstantiated accusations of one woman. What happened to Brett Kavanaugh on September 27th, 2018 was not unprecedented. The trampling of the constitution by very bad people in power has been going on for a very long time. Whether in business, families, or politics, watch the trend rather than just the event. A Powerful Permanent Principle: Seek out original causes of today’s disturbing events and above all, reduce the size and power of government.
