I hope it turns out well and that any child abuse is properly punished. Yet, this thing has left me with an uneasy feeling. A hoax call sets off the rounding up of hundreds on the assumption that all are guilty of something.

I'd read that it wasn't just one call that prompted this - this situation has been under investigation for a while. The 16 year old that called was working with the investigators, and now she's missing. I hope more info comes out.

“A hoax call sets off the rounding up of hundreds on the assumption that all are guilty of something.”

There is much more to it than just one hoax call.
IIRC, the hoax call came after the CPS had already decided to obtain a search warrant.

The ‘rounding up of hundreds’ was done to protect them from further potential abuse, not because the children were guilty of anything.
