The Utah County Sheriff's Department is revisiting decades-old allegations of ritualistic child abuse and trafficking.
Detectives with the Utah County Special Victims Unit (SVU) are investigating a series of reports alleging "ritualistic child sexual abuse." Investigators from multiple surrounding counties are also assisting the effort, with the earliest allegations dating to 1990, according to local outlet Fox 13.
Utah County Attorney David Leavitt called for the resignation of Sheriff Mike Smith over the investigation, saying that Smith was irresponsibly revisiting allegations against Leavitt and his wife.
Leavitt held a press conference Thursday stating that he had obtained a report accusing him and his wife of ritualistic abuse and cannibalism, but police have not named Leavitt as a suspect.
The police are "pleading" with the public for information that could help in their case. They are also calling on anyone victimized but previously unknown to come forward and share their story.
According to high-ranking members of the Utah County Police, criminal charges are expected to be filed.

So the county attorney is a cannibal. Great, just great. I wonder if he knows Marina Abramovic?
“They are also calling on anyone victimized but previously unknown to come forward...”
You are supposed to have victims BEFORE you investigate, not the other way around.
Picky, picky, picky.
Allegations going back to 1990, the height of the “satanic panic” which turned out to be an empty hysteria. But not before spoiling the reputations of many innocent people, and resulting in a bunch of malpractice suits against therapists and social workers who ginned up the nonsense.
