The "source", Lori Handrahan, is batshit crazy, as you point out, but that didn't stop a whole cadre of LCSW feminist warriors from jumping on her bandwagon to try and destroy anyone who wouldn't buy the BS she was selling.

To this day she gets cited as an aggrieved victim of a Maine pedophile ring. Sadly, there are plenty of real victims. It's maddening that someone as malicious and discredited as Handrahan usurps their pain and that alleged experts are good with it.
