>But a psycological cause wouldnt result in the damage found on the victims, right?

A psychological cause absolutely could have physical effects. It'd be really hard to develop an ethical experiment to test if these specific injuries could have a psychological cause, but other damage has had such a cause.

Also, like two people had concussion like brain scans without knowing they had a concussion. They could have just unknowingly had a concussion, it's not like they had brain scans before and after the "attack" to compare.

This would have been part of the evidence the panel ruled could fit a psychological cause anyway.
