Somebody call Alanis...

...because here comes some irony.

We've heard over and over again from the CFS camp that we shouldn't rely on the testimony of these children involved in this case.  They must have been coached.  None of them are reliable witnesses.  But then after a hugely contradictory post from JD on the CFS facebook page yesterday, our favorite inappropriate commenter BG chimes in again with:

It breaks my heart to read this [name removed]. It just really does. But it also makes me smile just a little because at the end of the day, kids are my favorite people, and your son still knows the truth in his heart. How sad for those who have become slimy, arrogant, corrupt adults who underestimate children. How sad for those who underestimate the wisdom children have, and the wisdom adults who genuinely love children acquire from them. Keep the faith [name removed].
So which is it BG?  Do we trust these kids to know if someone touched them inappropriately or do we trust that they "know the truth in [their] heart[s]"?  Who exactly are the "slimy, arrogant, corrupt adults who underestimate children"?  It seems to me, the only people who have underestimated children have been the CFS supporters.  The police have listened to the children and conducted appropriate interviews at the SAFE center.  They aren't underestimating them at all.

How ironic that we can trust a 7 year old to differentiate between a Citrus Heights Police officer and a Sac County Sheriff but not to tell the police or their parents who touched them inappropriately.  A child could have certainly perceived what happened when the school closed as "scary".  It could have even possibly tainted their view of Law Enforcement for a short while.  But with the proper parent support and guidance, there is no reason to believe that a child would be permanently scarred from the events of the closure.

Yet again CFS supporters, you can't have it both ways.  Either children are wise beings that need to be listened to or they are small people who soak up and regurgitate a bunch of lies.  You can't twist it to fit your rant of the day.  My opinion will always be that children need to be listened to.  Complaints such as these need to be taken seriously.  Do false accusations happen?  Of course.  This is why interviews are conducted by specially trained SAFE interviewers who are trained to see signs of coaching.  They aren't there to prove someone is guilty, they are there to find the truth.  Whatever it might be.

  1. Looks like JD, BG and their LEGION OF LOSERS are at it again. Do they honestly believe anyone takes a word they say seriously. Anyone of reasonable intelligence anyway. If they really believe Bob Adams to be innocent, they should be spending their valuable time raising more money for the cause. His defense team doesn't come cheap. The parents who prepaid could use their money back. Why don't these loud mouth mud slingers (who support Bob Adams and CFS) do something positive instead of disputing the victims' testimony, discrediting the agencies who did their jobs and caring individuals who looked after and protected their children.

    In the long run, the judge and jury will listen to the facts, and the testimony and determine his guilt and punishment. He will be required to register as a Sexual Molester and that will be the end of the story. (I wonder how many of these few supporters would allow Bob to have unsupervised time with their 2-10 year old daughters or granddaughters? They may SAY they would, but seriously, WOULD they?)

  2. In my opinion, the children that are "traumatized" by the CHPD and know the difference between the CHPD, CHP, Sac Co uniforms etc are being fed their opinions by the "trusted adults" in their lives. Oh, wait a second....isn't that what they are accusing the victims and their families of? They are saying the victims are being groomed and told what to say? How is what they are doing any different then what they are accusing others of?

  3. For those that might not understand....here's a little something from www.dictionary.com

    i·ro·ny1    /ˈaɪrəni, ˈaɪər-/ Show Spelled[ahy-ruh-nee, ahy-er-]
    noun, plural -nies.
    1. the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning: the irony of her reply, “How nice!” when I said I had to work all weekend.

  4. I am totally disgusted. I can't believe that certain people are STILL accusing the children of lying.

    A Facebook post..."And it's certainly taken a lot of hard work for the City and DA to scrape up enough recruited victims to keep this farce going, and the only question left is why?"


    I am sure the person that posted that is reading this blog, and I just have to say--YOU are a terrible person!! On one hand you say, "But it also makes me smile just a little because at the end of the day, kids are my favorite people." Then you have the audacity to continue accusing the children that came forward of being "recruited victims." and liars?? How dare you??

    And you ask WHY the city and DA are investigating this? Are you a fool? What if the allegations are true? What if it was your child that was making the allegations? Would you suggest that the city and DA ignore these allegations JUST BECAUSE YOU SAY SO??? Who are you to suggest such a thing?

    Has it occurred to you that perhaps the city and the DA are working hard to uncover the TRUTH, whatever that may be? Your crazy, lunatic tunnel vision is making you blind!

    "I can't help but find it almost funny that those who don't really understand the value of the school, probably were pretty surprised when so many parents didn't just immediately believe the molestation allegations, and instead, supported Bob and the school." I can't help but find it more than funny that most of those people are now GONE.

    "It's certainly not because the parents are half-wits as some would like everyone to believe, it's because they recognize that higher road of education, respect, and decency. Most people probably have never even experienced such a thing at their child's school." Are you kidding me?? Do you honestly think that CFS is the only school that can provide a great education? That "MOST" people have not had a positive experience at a different school? Who do you think you are to make such an assumption? You are egotistical, presumptuous and foolish.

    I hope that the allegations turn out to be not true-FOR THE SAKE OF THE CHILDREN. But, the bottom line is this: The school is still closed down and will NOT be opening again anytime soon. You running around accusing the city, the DA, the alleged victims, the fire department, the non-supporters and anyone else you can think of is just making you look like a fool.

    Interesting, the "non-supporters" have made NO accusations against Mr. Bob regarding the allegations. They have taken the high road, sticking to facts and moving on for the sake of their children while the "supporters" call children liars and accuse the city, the DA, the fire department, and anyone else they can point the finger at of wrongdoing and conspiracy. You should take a good look at yourself.

  6. I rarely comment because I'm just not as eloquent as most of you, and this stuff makes me cuss! When JOHN said his child was scared of the police...Nothing screams coaching and enabling fear. Ok, so one asshat cop was at the entrance July 18th. "so I'm to assume that you are here to pick up a child?" crime tape strewn all over, thoughts raving, he then gave me his pointer finger and continued his cell phone conversation...that SUCKED- but never once have my preschooler or grade schooler mentioned any horrible fear of police officers. If they did have any fear I certainly wouldn't rub "I know- it's horrible what they did to you, you are a victim" all over it. Whata weirdo. I fell sorry for his child.

    Thank you doubting CFS for being there with an open mind, a moral compass...and the writing eloquence that I lack!
