There are a number of possible reasons. Just because you wouldn't want to
lie about being raped and shocked and beaten doesn't mean everyone
wouldn't want to lie about being raped and shocked and beaten. Not
everyone thinks like you do.

People will lie about anything. I'm not accusing you, personally, or any
single individual of lying. I'm not saying that organized child abuse
doesn't happen or that some of you are not telling the truth. That does
not, however, mean that all of you are telling the truth.
No human being should ever be taken solely on their own word about
anything, at all, ever. This is particularly true if what they are saying
elicits an emotional response of any kind, especially if it elicits
resonance. Corroboration should always be sought. Trust is foolhardy.
Let me give you one shining example that's particularly relevant to this
kind of case. Predators seek out victims because seeking out victims is
what being a predator is all about. The most dense populations of victims
are found in victim support groups. Predators sometimes pretend to be
victims in order to gain the trust of likely prey. This is not at all
unlike the way drug dealers go to NA meetings looking for new customers.
It's a time tested predation strategy with proven results.
Of those people seeking out victims for company, some are themselves
victims. Others, however, are predators, using a disguise to hunt prey.
Anybody seeking out victims should therefore be especially suspect.
The surest way to be victimized is to go around trusting people when you
have nothing to go on but their own word. Don't do it. It's dangerous. It
leads to victimization.
