Letter to the Editor
By Lynley Hood, Dunedin
John Read's grotesque misrepresentation of my comments on sex abuse hysteria
graphically illustrates the problems faced by anyone who calls for rational
discussion of the issue.
In the article I argue that sexual abuse investigators cannot reliably distinguish
between true and false allegations of sexual abuse, and that the damage being
caused to New Zealand
society by false allegations cannot be ignored.
Read's claim that I have thereby condoned sexual abuse is irresponsible,
vindictive and wrong.
