During the late 1980s and early 1990s, there was MVMO (Multi Victim Multi Offender) hysteria in Prescott. There were 275 victims and 119 perpetrators ( [1]) and eventually approximately 50 adults were convicted or pleaded guilty ( [2]). -- 82.171.70.54 ( talk) 13:44, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
At this point, the majority of the citations in this section are broken links. The problem is that Project Jericho remains a sharply contested episode, with some in the community believing that the incident was genuine, but many others now believing that the incident was, as the above comment suggests, for the most part unfounded in fact. Consequently, the quality of evidence is of paramount importance, and links to a 404 page are a big problem. The posting by Judy Steed, to which some other links direct, is not helpful in this regard, because it is so clearly tendentious. The attempt to put those who question the veracity of this story in the same category as Holocaust deniers is a particularly egregious case of self-righteous overstatement. Either different sources should be found for the assertions written here or they should be deleted. Craig Walker ( talk) 15:35, 25 December 2017 (UTC)
I think this article could be dramatically improved, especially concerning the history of the town. This is a place that served as the center of wars (at least 3 of them by my count), trade, and canada-us relations in the 19th and early 20th centuries. That the only thing recently added to this page is a link, misrepresented by the poster i might add, to a story about an imagined sexual scandal in the past is appalling. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.159.80.72 ( talk) 23:10, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

St. Lawrence Shakespeare Festival isn't notable enough for a stand-alone article but may be worth a short mention here. Boleyn ( talk) 20:39, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
