Lempinen. SanFrancisco Chronicle 11/5/87 p. A1 Satanism and cult rituals have been linked toscores of child-molestation cases nationwide in the past five years, includingdozens in California. Children as young as 2 and 3 years old have come forwardwith harrowing tales of drinking blood, animal sacrifices and sexual abuse as partof rituals, according to law enforcement investigators, child abuse experts andparents. Others have even talked of cannibalism and ritual sacrifice of children.After hearing similar tales over and over from people across the country, manyinvestigators and child abuse experts now have come to believe in theunbelievable….In San Francisco, police confirmed last week that they areinvestigating reports by a 3-year-old girl who claimed that she was taken from aday-care center at the Presidio Army base and driven to a home where she wasmolested by two men in costumes. Police suspect that the home was the headquartersof the Temple of Set, a Nazi-Satanic group, and they have listed the temple’s highpriest as a possible suspect. No arrests have been made. Investigators and parentshave declined to give details of the cases of at least 58 children who attendedthe Presidio Child Development Center, fearing that they might jeopardize theprosecution of a former day-care worker. But in other cases across the nation,experts say there is striking evidence of ritualized sexual abuse that recurs in
 
case after case: — At West Point, N.Y., Army families have pressed aninvestigation into widespread child abuse at a military day-care center in 1983and 1984….But an increasingly influential group of legal, psychological andmedical experts say they are beginning to amass considerable testimony andcircumstantial evidence of cult and Satanic abuse nationwide - and dating backfour generations or more. Sandi Gallant, an intelligence officer with the SanFrancisco police and one of the nation’s most influential experts on cults,cautions that many cases are proving unfounded. But she says that there have been60 to 70 “solid” cases of ritual sexual abuse in the past few years nationwide.She and others have heard hundreds of children and adult - people who have nevermet and who live a continent apart - tell stories that are fundamentally the same.“Independently, the victims are describing incredibly similar circumstances,” saidCatherine Gould, a clinical psychologist in the Los Angeles district of Encino whohas counseled dozens of children who claim they were molested in rituals.http://ezproxy.sfpl.org/login?url=http://proquest.umi.com/pqdweb?did=65772423&Fmt=3&clientId=3266&RQT=309&VName=PQDFran’s Day Care Case - Randy Noblitt, PhDhttp://ritualabuse.us/ritualabuse/articles/frans-day-care/Baran caseBaran received a fair trial By William W. Simons - Pittsfield 9/13/03 “I havespent my professional life (going on 50 years) as a prosecutor, defense lawyer andSuperior Court judge….I was the presiding judge in the Superior Court trial ofBernard Baran that took place in Pittsfield, extending for 10 days in January1985. Baran was charged with rape and indecent assault and battery on six childrenwhile he was a child-care worker in a Pittsfield day care center. He wasoriginally represented by the Public Defender’s Office but chose to obtain privatecounsel, Leonard Conway of Westfield. After his conviction on these casesinvolving five of the children, an appeal was taken on Baran’s behalf by AttorneyDavid O. Burbank of Pittsfield, also an experienced and able trial and appellatecounsel. The appeal was decided on March 27, 1986, affirming the convictions. Mr.Burbank sought further appellate review and that application was denied by theSupreme Judicial Court on May 30, 1986….The concern that young victims are proneto suggestibility pales in comparison to the suggestibility of grown andexperienced newspapermen. A more serious injury is that distorted claims ofinjustice that seek freedom for Baran are not without consequences for society andthis community, should they succeed.” http://www.berkshireeagle.com/also see: http://www.leadershipcouncil.org/1/ctf/bib.htmlHalsey caseThe Legend of Robert Halsey - Journal of Child Sexual Abuse, v9 n3-4 p37-52 2001 -Cheit, Ross E.
