I'm still curious as to what role you have in the situation? Are you a family friend, relative, or person who may have been involved in the initial using of these people before you understood what was going on?
And again, what benefit would them knowing that they were used, and that their son's medical issues may not be related to drugs as they have believed all along have on the situation. Would it solve anything for them to have to face the betrayal of others they were supposed to be able to trust. Would it change anything for the better for the health and well being of the adult child? What would they be able to do differently knowing they were betrayed and would the risk of not knowing the truth overpower the hurt and anguish they would feel if they had to come to face it?
Also, what does the 45 yr old have to say about this? Is this person competent or are they delayed developmentally? What are they saying about the situation?
Sometimes, bad things happen and there is a compassionate inner drive to want to make things better for people....but sometimes what we think may be better will only cause more pain and anguish. If the parents are getting the adult child appropriate medical care and he is not being denied the care he needs, you might want to think if it is worth it to "avenge" the parents in this situation as that outcome has some negative consequences for them in regards to pain, and could have negative consequences on you. But if this person is in jeopardy, then you have to look at the moral and ethics of the situation and make a decision which is going to be in their best medical interest.

Hi Elysium,
My role is none, other than having these folks essentially drop in from outer space with a bone to pick. The mother has been lied to and they have gotten caught up in the agenda of a psychopath. They folks are not run of the mill with a mentally ill kid who is actually suffering from 22q11.2. The psychopath has convinced the mother of what is wrong with her kid and then a course of action was taken to get revenge on the person who did this to their kid. The whole thing is convoluted from the psychopaths point of view, but she (psychopath) needed a team and these folks have been duped. I cannot say what I believe what they did, but it all makes sense. This matter almost collapsed an entire state's police department. Suffice to say, the duped woman and the psychopath have a close bond and the psychopath working in conjunction with the duped woman or the psychopath acting alone, meaning without the knowledge of the duped woman took some actions to seek revenge on another party. Let's put it this way. It's mafia and possibly mafia cops parading around as legit cops at the very least. I know these folks are very well connected and the psychopath led the duped woman who was looking for answers into something that cannot be undone. I cannot prove any of this, but if I had to bet my life on it, I would.
