Way to give a middle finger to all the survivors of childhood sexual violence. I behaved SO SIMILARLY to Emily after I was assaulted as a teenager. The one-sided psychoanalysis of her behavior to prove that she made up stories grossed me out. The “journalist” steam rolls one point of view. Gives ZERO credit to the victims. Fails to discuss the very concerning behaviors of the mom and dad. Spends all his time trying to prove that the daughter must have been coaxed into a story by crazed therapists. This isn’t journalism. This is an opinion piece. Oh an one quick google search and you immediately find the identity of the family so I’m not really sure who he’s protecting with the pseudonyms.
