Bulletin: Dan and Fran Keller; Texas; American Statesman reports that Texas's highest criminal court has declined to review a decision last month - in what became known as the "satanic day care case" - rejecting the former Austin day care owners request to be declared innocent of crimes linked to the now-discredited belief that secret satanic cults were abusing day care children nationwide.

Former Austin day care owners pushed to be found innocent of abusing children in satanic rituals. Case was part of a panic that gripped the nation in the early 1990s, their lawyer says. The state’s highest criminal court declined Wednesday to review last month’s ruling in the “satanic day care” case of Dan and Fran Keller. Although the Court of Criminal Appeals had tossed out the Kellers’ 1992 sexual assault convictions in a May 20 ruling, the court rejected a request to declare the former Austin day care owners innocent of crimes linked to the now-discredited belief that secret satanic cults were abusing day care children nationwide.
