I’m skeptical, to say the least. Unsure if paid off, intimidated by Rickey, or crushed under the disapproval of family, but I doubt the nephew just changed his mind

this is dark sided.

I hope the nephew is OK. Those are some really serious allegations. I don't want to handwave them away as them being the result of someone who is mentally ill.

Often people become "mentally ill" as a result of C-PTSD, and developmental trauma and CSA, and abuse in a the family. It sounds like he has Complex trauma, if he was abused, which I personally have no trouble believing.

Edit: I wrote mentally ill in quotes because I think it's a catchall term that's not specific and via research, trauma is shown to be a factor present in almost all the lives of people who deal with "mental illness." Also in my culture, it is not just mental, we capture the soul pain and the emotional and body issues that trauma and mental issues cause and correlate with; the interplay of all of those seems awfully simplified by the term mental illness, which it impacts everything in your life and your person.
