Cover up of the Century: Satanic Ritual Crime
and World Conspiracy by Daniel Ryder.
Every once in a great while, a book comes out that is a
standout in its field. One that is well written, that teaches, educates, and
leaves the reader thinking for days afterwards about its subject. One that
challenges the reader to overcome biases and misconceptions. And recently, such
a book was published.
The book? "Cover up of the Century:
Satanic Ritual Crime and World Conspiracy" by Daniel Ryder. If you don’t have a
copy yet, I suggest you go to your local bookstore, or Amazon.com online, and
get one. This is one of the better researched and documented books on the topic
of ritual abuse that I have seen.
Ryder has a background in
investigative journalism, and it shows. Piece by piece, he discusses the
evidence available that shows the reality of ritual abuse, and builds his case
throughout the book. In fact, I would challenge anyone with an objective mind to
read this book, and be able to deny the overwhelming evidence presented that: a)
ritual abuse is real b) recovered memories are real, and are documented to be
reliable c) there has been a large amount of cover-up of the evidence available
in high profile cases such as the Franklin case in Omaha, Nebraska. d) There is
firm evidence of mind control techniques, organization and planning in occult
groups
Mr. Ryder meticulously documents
the evidence with research and in-depth interviews throughout his book. From
government officials to police investigators, survivors of occult ceremonies to
concerned parents, psychologists to lawyers, his extensive research and fact
finding combine in this book to draw a compelling picture: ritual abuse is real,
it is happening, and it is organized. He refutes statements by Lanning of the
FBI that ritual abuse has no evidence with literal archives of cases of ritual
abuse that have gone to court and been successfully prosecuted. I love the first
chapter which asks "Where's the Proof?" then proceeds to answer the question.
Studies are quoted, officials discussed and documented cases of ritual crime are
given.
Ryder's background research on some
of the leading members of the False Memory Syndrome Foundation (FMSF) is a
thought-provoking chapter, as the "syndrome" is exposed as having no reality
according to clinical experts in the field. Also, the less than savory
background of some of the founding members and "experts" recruited by the FMSF
are revealed.
I believe this book should be
recommended reading for anyone who thoughtfully asks the question "If ritual
abuse is real, where is the evidence?" The evidence is there, the experts are
speaking out, and court cases prove that RA is a real phenomenon. I am grateful
that Mr. Ryder took the time to interview and research this topic, and share
what he found with the general public.---Svali http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/ritual_abuse/52649
