he girls screamed, threw things about the room, uttered strange sounds, crawled under furniture, and contorted themselves into peculiar positions, according to the eyewitness account of Rev. Deodat Lawson, a former minister in the town. The girls complained of being pinched and pricked with pins. A doctor, historically assumed to be William Griggs, could find no physical evidence of any ailment. Other young women in the village began to exhibit similar behaviors.
Ask the good doctor why 2 kids that just traveled to LeRoy last year developed and still have this disorder live in Corinth 250 miles away. They play softball and were in Leroy last year. They were no subject to the mass conversion disorder as they were not even around these girls and their case predates the Leroy cases.... What ya say doc?
I think this environmentally caused and smacks of a cover up by the state health dept. My heart goes out to all of the girls with this illness. I hope they get well soon and a thorough investigation needs to be made!!
@Lrwrestling119 You sure some of them leave your system quickly. You think they would make a list of things they have done/ingested that are the same. Also strychnine could affect your nervous system. I'm very curious about this I hope they follow up with this story.
this is what i think is happening to this girls....story so similar to me...In Salem Village in 1692, Betty Parris, age 9, and her cousin Abigail Williams, age 11, the daughter and niece (respectively) of the Reverend Samuel Parris, began to have fits described as "beyond the power of Epileptic Fits or natural disease to effect" by John Hale, minister in nearby Beverly.T
im telling you now either pray for them or mention the name jesus to them and you'll find they might attack you for it so make sure you have plenty of people with you they need jesus not a doctor
You know some drugs can do that to you. C2B will do that to you if you take too much. There are many hallucinogens if not made properly could do this. Maybe they don't take drugs but it's another possibility.
I AM A PROFESSIONAL DETECTIVE THUS I'LL GET TO THE BOTTOM OF WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF THIS MYSTERT ILLNESS AFFECTING THESE LITTLE GIRLS!!!!!;DDDD Currently in the evidence gathering process.
