Letter to Editor, by Suzanne George, Dunedin

I regard Lynley Hood's concentration on the few who make substantiated false ACC sexual abuse claims in her book, A City Possessed , as a red herring and diversion, along with other misleading perspectives. Many women feel betrayed by this book. Decent men and women in a caring society would be truly appalled by the vast number of genuine sexual abuse claimants suffering lost potential, and then take preventive action. Inaction amounts to tacit approval of sexual abuse.
