    Good Lord. Yeah I mean, that doesn’t sound super believable. 14 year old going through with what their parents want? Nah. He fuckin diddled that kid.

      Again not defending him but, I could easily see a 14 year old in a cult going along with what their parents or other authoritative figures say.

      That being said, the part that doesn’t pass the sniff test for me is the grand jury indictment. Abuse cases like that are notoriously hard to prove in court (in part due to kids not making the most reliable witnesses). If a grand jury brought charges, I’m more inclined to believe there was enough smoke to investigate for the fire.
