Dr. Susana Martinez-Conde and Dr. Stephen Macknik, Professors of Ophthalmology, Neurology, and Physiology & Pharmacology at the SUNY (State University of New York), Downstate Medical Center, discuss with Jimmy Hinton how it's possible for child sexual predators to abuse children in the presence of other adults without them seeing it. It is very common for abusers to intentionally abuse their victims in front of other adults, including the child's parents. Most people falsely believe that being in the same room as their children is a good method of preventing abuse. It is not.

Drs. Martinez-Conde and Macknik are the authors of Sleights of Mind: What the Neuroscience of Magic Reveals about Our Everyday Deceptions and Champions of Illusion: The Science Behind Mind-Boggling Images and Mystifying Brain Puzzles. Jimmy Hinton is the son of a pedophile and a researcher who specializes in abusers' techniques to keep their "audience" blind to the abuse.
