CGI means, just to be clear, creating any type of image with a computer. Basically, starting off with nothing, or with images and manipulating them.

Because accused persons are motivated to verbally and even mentally deny an abusive past, simple denials cannot constitute cogent evidence that the victim’s memories are not authentic.
