APPENDIX V

CHILDREN AND SATANISM

The  National  Coalition  for  Children’s Justice, headquartered in Shelburne,  Vermont, believes the influence   of  Satanism   on  young   people  has escalated manyfold over the past 15 years.

Ken    Wooten,   the    organization’s   director,      investigated  Satanism  for   ABC  News’  “20/20.” Information  acquired, such  as sado-masochism and the torture of missing  children, led him to start the organization.

He   discovered   that   children   and  pre-teens      recruited    into   Satanic    organizations   are propagandized to believe  material possessions and power can be obtained  by worshiping evil. That is the philosophical basis  to their morality, Wooten said.

They  are brought  into the  cults by  non-satanic promises  of  music,  dancing—generally  having a nice  time with  their peers.  This progresses  to bisexual  orgies, drugs,  cannibalism and  murder. Wooten reports the average age of a satanic killer in the United States is 20.4 years.

“I honestly believe it’s an extortion racket. They get people involved, they  videotape them and then they start to blackmail them.”
