Supreme Court Rules That Police Can Be Held Accountable In False Accusation Cases

	posted by Scott on Tuesday September 19, @05:43AM from the false-accusations dept.
	I found this story in the Seattle P-I. It announces that the Supreme Court of Washington State has ruled that police involved in child abuse cases which turn out to be unfounded can be sued if they are guilty of negligence in handling the case. Hopefully this will put a damper on the "witch hunt" style abuse cases similar to the one Washington had five years ago that are based solely on the accusations of a minor.
