"So you don't say the Brays were liars, but you do say they shouldn't be believe?

Where the hell did I say that????

See, this is EXACTLY my point. You aren't asking questions and reading your own pre-conceived notions to a sensationalised story.

My initial comment was that there are more questions to be asked. If you feel that asking questions is wrong, then I pity you. Most people do like to receive as much information as possible before making ANY decision.

The "facts" as you call them, were not disputed, but they were not confirmed by ACS either.

I am quite convinced that these girls had a horrible experience.   I am not yet positive on what caused it.   Was it simply their sensitivity to the situation, the lack of sensitivity by the ACS, the system, or perhaps something in between? Why were they treated differently than anyone else if we aren't hearing more stories? Are they the only people to have gone through this sytem and complained about it?

Is it possible that you don't want to find out any more?

I guess what I said about the spokesperson for ACS also went over your head. IF you think that ONE person's answer is enough to base a story, then you are way too trusting. I pointed out in a previous note about some of the other people they should have asked. A trained journalist doing their job would do so.
