Molestation 'victims' change their minds after 20 years
Two women whose testimony in a child molestation case put a man behind bars for 20 years have recanted, with one saying her grandmother pressured them to finger the wrong man to protect a cousin.
The accusers, cousins who were four and six when they made the charges, were expected to testify in Raleigh, North Carolina, today that they falsely accused Sylvester Smith, 53. He was given two consecutive life sentences in 1984.
