Imaginary Crimes -- true stories of people convicted of crimes without evidence

This website is dedicated to helping people who are still serving long prison sentences received during the "ritual abuse" panic of the late eighties and early nineties. During this time, scores of innocent people were accused by overzealous social workers and police of heinous crimes against children.

In time, the hysteria subsided and most people were freed from prison (although many had spent years in prison and had been bankrupted by the process). It was discovered that the young children had been virtually brainwashed by the leading questions and repeated interrogations of social workers, therapists and law enforcement officials. Therefore, their wild testimony about animal sacrifice, devil worship, travelling in submarines, secret tunnels, and flying to secret locations where they were molested were fabrications, mostly without a shred of truth.

But incredibly, some people still remain in prison, forgotten and powerless.
