Last year
the Arizona
Supreme Court
opened the door to a
new round of
sex-abuse claims
based on "repressed
memories." But in a
just-concluded test
case, a Phoenix jury wasn't buying the claims of a
woman who "remembered" an attack that allegedly
took place in the 1970s--not even a little bit. In "Expert Tease," Phoenix
New Times staff writer Paul Rubin takes an in-depth look at the case.
