Summary
Within three months, 16 children were removed from their homes in a small island community and taken into the care of social services. The media explained the reasoning behind the removal; they claimed the children had been victims of satanic abuse. Three decades later, the Orkney child abuse scandal remains one of the most notorious child protection failures in the United Kingdom… (Part 1 of 2).
