That was how I understood it, but I didn't understand it because it implies that people in positions of power are willing to protect children from known abuse enough to take two of them into custody, but not enough to go on record about it to help protect other children who must surely be in the exact same jeopardy.. .?

He suspects that the boyfriend might be inserted to screw everything up.
As I've stated before I think both the mother and boyfriend are playing a role in this travesty because they've made it clear they don't care about the children. However, one of the reasons I rule out the mother and boyfriend as sole perpetrators is the establishment/court's obvious effort in trying to cover up/obscure certain aspects of this case. This only occurs when they're trying to protect significant somebodies, not two idiot nobodies.

With all the ACTUAL revelations about this case and those behind it to come out in recent months, I can't believe there are still some dead-enders hanging on for dear life on the once somewhat reputable and reasonable Rigorous Intuition board.
Willful ignorance on this scale, and at this level of tenacity, is a damned disturbing thing to witness with your own two eyes.

Opperman pointed out that the Oliver Stone produced movie (?) starring James Woods was written and directed by two of the members of the False Memory Foundation.
White House-promoted, Clinton-linked nonprofit Music Changing Lives recruits 'at-risk' kids into music industry, runs Haiti orphanages. Incidental Hampstead alleged 'satanic abuse' case connection (v/pizzagate)
submitted 3 hours ago by oilymirror
A company called Music Changing Lives, run by a Josiah Bruny in Moreno Valley, California, purportedly aims to help low-income youth in underserved communities through educating 'at-risk', drugs-and-violence kids (i.e., possibly from crime scenes) in music production.
According to their website:
'MCL began in 1998 when CEO and Founder, Josiah Bruny, created a studio in his own home in Moreno Valley, CA where he could teach young musicians how to record and own the copyright for their own music. After working for some of the greatest stars in the music industry like Master P, Ice Cube and learning the “ins and outs” of the business.
Bruny was determined to open the way for the independent artists within our communities. He taught youth who were at-risk of dropping out of school, gang violence, drugs, and crime how to record and copyright their own music, and offered those students pathways to entrepreneurial success.'

Music Changing Lives won the George H. W. Bush Daily Points of Light award in 2012. They also either ran or are still running orphanages in Haiti and have been promoted by the White House in that capacity.

Here is a tweet by a man called Jeff Horseman that links Bruny to Hillary Clinton: "Just spoke with Josiah Bruny, one of the people who will meet with @HillaryClinton in Perris tonight."

Apparently, Ricky Dearman, the father who was accused in the Hampstead alleged satanic abuse controversy, has worked for Bruny making promotional videos for his Haiti orphanage enterprises.

They're--we're-- led to believe that our nations are pouring our hard-earned dollars/euros/pounds into rescuing/helping, so there must be something wrong with people who can't pull themselves out of their horrible circumstances. This is especially true of “pull ourselves up by our bootstrap” Americans who have no tolerance for people who can't, well, pull themselves up by their own bootstraps, particularly when its their hard-earned dollars supposedly given in assistance. In other words, American, British, Germans, etc., are "fine with it" because they truly believe they're leaders are, if anything, providing too much assistance. What's wrong with these people??
It's this myth that keeps people from caring. It's this myth that keeps people from believing that wealthy and powerful men and women, not only don't give a fuck about the less fortunate, but prevents them from believing that their pedestaled powerful and wealthy class deliberately create these horrendous conditions and then exploit its most vulnerable and innocent victims for their most evil personal use and profit,
The bottom line is that we are so conditioned into equating power and wealth--especially white power and wealth-- with a certain level of virtue that stories like these just can't be true. Only the low-class, marginalized, and on occasion, the obviously insane individual is capable of despicable and evil acts such as this.
Just world research has shown that observers derogate victims more for their misfortunes if the perpetrator is not harshly punished (Lerner in J Personal Soc Psychol 1(4):355–360, 1980). However, few studies have investigated minority group derogation as a just world preservation strategy after instances of intergroup harm-doing. This study is among the first to demonstrate the derogation of both individual victims and of the victim’s minority group experimentally, using the context of a racist hate crime in Australia. In the present experiment, participants (N = 110) read a news article describing a hate crime against an Aboriginal Australian teenager and were informed that the perpetrator was harshly or leniently punished (secure vs. justice threat condition). Our results show that in the justice threat condition, participants not only derogated the individual Aboriginal Australian victim more after his death, they also expressed greater racism toward the victim’s group. An indirect effect of the justice threat condition on modern racism via individual victim derogation was observed, along with moderating effects of individual differences in belief in a just world. These findings provide support for the alarming hypothesis that racist hate crimes are not only the manifestation of a racist society, but may also bolster racial prejudices if leniently treated. The results highlight the important role of political and judicial authorities, whose response or non-response to a hate crime can exacerbate or ameliorate existing prejudices.
