RINGGOLD, Ga. — With thick-framed glasses, the child psychologist on the stand peered at the typed transcripts from interviews with children alleging a former kindergarten teacher molested them.
“It ap-peared that the little girls were influenced and got (their) information from their parents,” Dr. William Bernet said Tuesday during the trial of Tonya Craft.
One of Ms. Craft’s defense attorneys asked the psychologist how he came to that conclusion.
“Because they said so,” responded Dr. Bernet, a professor of psychiatry at Vanderbilt University.
