So this is like early 90s, a nice little beach community in Orange County.
And I get accused of a crime that I did not commit.
It's a falsely accused.
It's an underage girl thing.
And the premise of the case is there's a guy running around asking people about a lost cat.
And this happens 15, 20 times over the course of six, eight months, and the whole town is getting in an uproar over it.
So they bring this girl, and they film an interview.
After I got involved in this whole thing, we didn't know this was part of the thing.
They just spring this in trial.
And it's this interview where the kid doesn't care what she's saying.
She's not upset.
She thinks she's waiting for her mom in the dentist office.
And then they just keep asking her leading question after leading question.
And the kid's not giving them what they want.
Eventually, they get her to say that there was some inappropriate touching on that.
She sort of says it, sort of denies it, but it's all they needed.
Now they can go out and arrest somebody.
And they obviously don't care who they arrest.
And the cops had lined up like 16 different guys of a certain look or whatever.
And some of us, I was one of them, were under surveillance.
