The Defense Rest: Under the Legal Lens
The McMartin Preschool Trial
Welcome to another trial Under the Legal Lens, today we will be going through the McMartin Preschool Trial that took place in the 1980s.
A schizophrenic mother, family owned preschool, over 300 children under 5 years old coerced by a social worker to believe they were molested and kidnapped. This trial is known as the most expensive trial in US History, and lasted seven years. I hope you enjoy our time together as we relive the multi-million dollar trial filled with; bias political agendas, falsely credentialed “professionals” , and coerced testimonies. * I AM A LAWYER | NOT YOUR LAWYER | NOT GIVING LEGAL ADVISE*
