Don't be shocked, but one of the most famous cases in psychology turns out to be a really huge fraud.
It's all very disappointing though. Alex Haley had just claimed to have tracked down one of the personalities to her home village.
Meanwhile, some of us are still wondering about people who claim to be Certified Super Genii, but keep falling for obvious frauds. Still, claiming a young girl has sixteen people living in her head is still less goofy than claiming dangerous felons can be rehabilitated by six months of group therapy twice a week, and at least 'Sybil' didn't take an axe to anyone's head.
