Go and bully him.

Someone else can give you the wayback machine link. I've got other fish to fry.

Dale Akiki was not a lucky man. He was born with Noonan syndrome, which meant he was short, ugly, and often had problems with bleeding from his orifices. He had an IQ of 89 to 93, which meant he was a bit dim but still smarter than the average srdine. He also lived in California. He worked as a computer assistant in the navy, who sadly didn't immediately invade San Diego when he was unjustly imprisoned.

California has always had a troubling tolerance for wackos, and the repressed memory therapy found fertile ground there. The satanic panic is often remembered as a purely religious phenomena, but there was also a lot of bullshit pseudoscience and malignant feminism in the mix for those who weren't big on Godbothering but still felt like witch hunting. It all came down to womanly hysteria in the end though.

Here a psychiatrist admits the whole thing is bullshit

Dale volunteered at a daycare in his church because he was too naive to know that, as a man, you're never allowed to interact with children that are not your own. A lot of parents didn't like him because he was creepy-looking. Wikipedia claims it was Jack in The Box CEO Goodall who was his main prosecutor, but they don't provide any evidence of that and they're the only one who claims that so frick them for liars.

Then someone became convinced he was bad-touching the kids and, thanks to repressed memory theory, a bunch of six year olds were convinced that he was eating babies, pooping on them, and slaughtering elephants in front of them. In the church daycare. While mass was going. With the parents just down the hall. While leaving no physical evidence. And Mr. Akiki is the one who's mentally handicapped here?

He spent two and a half years in prison on charges that were obviously bullshit.

A scholarly article that mentions him and his case.

In Jail he was adopted as under the protection of one of the gangs who realized he wasn't a chomo because he was clearly being railroaded.

Our friend Dale, however, was found innocent on all charges and was released.

Later on a San Diego grand Jury told the prosecutor they had no case and everything that happened was bollocks.

Here he reflects on his experience.

On the plus side, he got 2 million dollars out of the experience.

Then his wife died of a stroke at 45, and two million dollars is nothing compared to that.

The story from Faith Chapel's perspective. Turns it it was all dirty hippies. Pastor Charles resigned two weeks before the trial began. Pastor George died of a heart attack shortly after the trial concluded.

The La times gives some more information on her perspective

Even the National Review laughs at them. Especially because Dale Akiki can't drive and they claim he used a truck to transport his victims.

Call her Javert because she was prosecuting him because she thought he was guilty.

Mary Claudette Avery resigned

https://apps.calbar.ca.gov/attorney/Licensee/Detail/85876

She lived in San Diego so it may be her

She was a member and allegedly founder of San Diego Child Abuse Prevention Foundation

Which still exists as promise2kids

https://promises2kids.org/about-us/#:~:text=Promises2Kids%20is%20a%20leading%20nonprofit,due%20to%20abuse%20and%20neglect.

Unless the Child Abuse prevention foundation of San Diego county is a different organization

They seem to think Jack hated him because he was disabled rather than that Jack hated him because he thought he was molesting children because Jack is a gullible dumbass.

Here's the book everybody is constantly citing
