Christopher Bennett is a native of Craigsville, Virginia, who made national headlines in 2003 when, at 18, he fatally shot his stepfather, Vincent McDorman. Bennett was subsequently convicted of capital murder as well as robbery and breaking and entering, accepting a plea deal that resulted in a sentence totaling 1,800 years—equivalent to three life terms under Virginia law.According to Bennett, he stumbled into the home after hearing his sister's cries and confronted his stepfather as he was allegedly molesting her. The case has sparked ongoing debate, with supporters portraying Bennett as a juvenile who acted to protect his siblings from abuse.Victoria McDorman, Bennett's younger sister, is central to both the case and the ongoing campaign for his clemency. She has publicly recounted enduring repeated abuse at the hands of their stepfather and described her brother's actions as brave and necessary. Victoria and other family members have participated in rallies—including one in 2020 in Craigsville—calling for Bennett's release, highlighting the trauma they endured and advocating for a reexamination of his sentence. In recent years, their story has attracted further attention through podcasts like True Crime Broads, which features Victoria's voice as she elaborates on those events and continues to champion her brother as a hero rather than a criminal.https://linktr.ee/UnforbiddentruthBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unforbidden-truth--4724561/support.

Jessie was 21. Molly was 11. Two days after their joint birthdays, their mom, Jill, was murdered by Molly's father. In the hours, days, and years that followed, there was little room for grief. Jessie and Molly were expected to keep going — and they did. But that forward momentum came at a cost.  It's been nearly 20 years, and only recently have Jessie and Molly begun to revisit what happened and what it's meant to live with unspoken grief and unacknowledged trauma. As part of that process, they discovered a manila envelope packed away in storage - inside were eight children's book manuscripts written by their mom in the 1980s. Finding those stories sparked a new chapter of connection with their mom and motivated them to work towards getting them illustrated and published.   Note: This conversation includes descriptions of domestic violence, stalking, violent death, and suicide. If you or someone you know needs support, see the list of resources below.  In this conversation, Jessie and Molly talk about: What their mom was like and what she meant to each of them Their vastly different experiences of the day she was killed  What stood in the way of them naming what they lived through as abuse and trauma  How grief became something they held privately, even from each other  The impact of finally receiving permission to feel and grieve  Their efforts to get their mom's children's stories published  Follow along and support their project: Barty Books on Instagram GoFundMe: Everyone Has A Story To Tell.  Dougy Center: https://www.dougy.org National Domestic Violence Hotline - 1-800-799-7233 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline - 988

This episode is a call to action for all of us: to be aware, ask better questions, and protect the most vulnerable in our lives.Key TakeawaysChild abuse thrives in silence, secrecy, and “nice” neighborhoods.Grooming is subtle, manipulative, and often misunderstood.Trafficking and abuse aren't always strangers or abductions: 90% of abusers are known and trusted.Ask better questions as a parent—don't just ask if they were polite, ask if anything felt uncomfortable.Secrets are never safe; surprises are fun, but secrets need to be shared.Parents should show up unannounced and trust their gut feelings.The Willowfield Foundation provides mental health therapy scholarships for children.Forgiveness and healing are daily choices, not one-time events.Listen in to learn more 01:58 – Laura's background and transition from corporate to mission-driven work05:16 – The traumatic experience that changed everything07:25 – Warning signs, grooming, and the importance of adult responsibility11:56 – Empowering kids to speak up without fear15:08 – Laura's work with NAMI and crisis response16:58 – Founding the Willowfield Foundation and its mission19:41 – Letting go of guilt as a parent20:44 – Shocking statistics about abuse and why awareness matters22:39 – Where to find more informationResources & Next StepsWillowfield FoundationNAMI – National Alliance on Mental IllnessStewards of Children Training – Darkness to LightTrust Your Gut FeelingsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-lindsey-elmore-show--5952903/support.

A so-called "rehab" camp for child refugees, operating under the guise of faith, has been exposed for horrific abuse, leading to the removal of dozens of children. This disturbing pattern reveals the systemic dangers of religious institutions operating with unchecked power and zero oversight. When vulnerable populations, particularly immigrant and refugee children, are exploited in the name of piety, it exposes a deep societal failure where religious privilege shields heinous acts from accountability. This incident highlights the urgent need for stringent regulation and criminalization of these "faith-based" programs, ensuring all children are protected from the predatory practices masked by religious fervor. The cycle of abuse must end.News Source: Iowa Kingdom Ministry Rehab & Recreation 'Shekinah Glory Camp' accused of child abuse By Kelby Wingert for kcci.com June 16, 2025

Natasha is joined by Jenny Elledge as they discuss a new podcast, "Architecture of Abuse”:   'Architecture of Abuse' explores the widespread issue of child sexual abuse in Utah, with a focus on how the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has historically responded to reports of abuse within its community. Hosted by Alyssa Grenfell, alongside veteran attorney Tim Kosnoff, the series features conversations with survivors, clinical therapists, sociologists, historians, journalists, and researchers—some of whom are active LDS members.   Rooted in compassion and a call for accountability, 'Architecture of Abuse' examines the cultural and institutional forces that protect abusers and silence victims. We aim to equip listeners with a deeper understanding of this issue, offer resources for survivors, and invite meaningful change within the LDS community and beyond.   You can go here to listen to the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/architecture-of-abuse/id1816319575   Or here on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2NdR9oh1Vmbhfyey4bXCuz?si=6aa8a46115594da3 To help keep this podcast going, please consider donating at natashahelfer.com and share this episode.

In this powerful episode of the Dead America Podcast, host Ed Watters sits down with Randy Pitkin, author of Restored, for a profoundly honest conversation about trauma, healing, and inner transformation. Randy opens up about his deeply painful childhood—marked by abuse, abandonment, and molestation—and how those early wounds shaped a path of rage, shame, and destructive behaviors. Through his story, we learn how moments of clarity and support empowered Randy to seek help, confront his past, and ultimately discover peace and wholeness. He shares how shifting spiritual beliefs, embracing vulnerability, and redefining identity played key roles in his healing journey. Randy's testimony is more than just a personal narrative—it's a beacon of hope for others grappling with unresolved trauma. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that no matter how broken we feel, restoration is possible. It's a must-listen for survivors, mental health advocates, and anyone who believes in the power of resilience. 00:00 Introduction to Randy Pitkin and His Book 'Restored' 01:07 Randy's Early Life and Family Background 01:44 Trauma and Abuse in Randy's Childhood 05:30 The Impact of Trauma on Randy's Adult Life 06:35 Finding Wholeness and Peace 08:19 Randy's Spiritual Journey 12:27 Reconciliation and Final Struggles 13:12 Encouragement and Advice for Others 17:26 Reflections on Family and Personal Growth 28:16 Conclusion and Final Thoughts

Have you ever sat in a women's Bible study, nodding politely while someone says “your husband is your spiritual covering,” and inside you're thinking, I think I'm dying a little bit every time I say “yes, dear”?In this episode, I get real about complementarianism, the nice-sounding theology that quietly hijacked our self-worth, autonomy, and sanity. I share how I was the poster child for it once (hello, Created to Be His Help Meet), and how that life script nearly destroyed my soul.I'm unpacking the research, the psychology, the theology, and yes, the “are you kidding me right now?” stories from real women who've lived this. It's systemic. And it's deeply damaging.What You'll Learn: How complementarianism teaches learned helplessness (like, literal textbook psychology)That a shocking number of women from these teachings suffer from anxiety, decision fatigue, and depression but think it's a faith issue, not a mental health oneWhy your pastor's advice to “submit harder” is about as helpful as telling someone with a broken leg to “walk it off with a godly attitude”That yes, the research confirms it: biblical womanhood theology messes with your brainHow to tell the difference between “conviction” and religious traumaRead the full show notes and/or ask Natalie a question hereRelated Resources:Head to our website to find ALL the resources I packed into today's episode.Check out some related Flying Free resources, including an article I wrote called “How Complementarianism Causes Abuse in Churches and Homes” and an episode called “Do Gender Roles Contribute to Emotional Abuse in the Home and Church?”

Hidden Memories: Why the Brain Represses Childhood Trauma & Abuse and How to HealWhat happens when your own mind keeps secrets from you? In this powerful episode of Linda's Corner: Inspiration for a Better Life, bestselling author, speaker, and mental health ambassador Melissa Osorio shares her gripping personal journey of uncovering repressed memories of childhood trauma. Her book begins with a shocking revelation: "At 15 I killed someone. This was just one of many secrets that my brain hid from me. For most of my life, I had barely any memories of my childhood. Except for a few snippets, I lived in the dark. It wasn't until I turned 36 that my world began to unravel."Together, we explore why the brain represses traumatic experiences, the psychological impact of hidden memories, and the process of healing from past wounds. Melissa's story is both harrowing and inspiring, offering hope to those struggling with fragmented memories, trauma, and the path to self-discovery.Tune in to learn how unlocking suppressed memories can lead to profound healing, self-empowerment, and a renewed sense of identity.

On this episode, Sandra and Kasey are chatting with Ke, known as EldritchLibertine on AO3 and tumblr. Ke's watched Supernatural for years but only recently dived into SPN fandom and writing about the show's characters.

Kerrick Majors was a 14-year-old African American boy from Nashville, Tennessee, whose brutal, racially motivated murder in April 1987 became a symbol of both racial violence and justice in the American South. Described as a kind, respectful middle school student, Kerrick was abducted after a minor dispute over a broken vase with three white drifters—Donald and Tammy Middlebrooks and Robert Brewington—who falsely accused him of theft. They forced him into a wooded area where he was tortured over several hours—burned, beaten with brass knuckles, urinated on, slashed with knives, and stabbed to death while racial slurs were used against him.His body, left naked under a discarded mattress in a creek bed, bore signs of extreme cruelty, including a carved "X" on his chest. Police initially dismissed him as a runaway and delayed the investigation, which led to public outrage, disciplinary action against officers, and a $2 million lawsuit by Kerrick's family. The case resulted in historic convictions: Brewington received life plus 75 years, Tammy Middlebrooks received life with parole eligibility, and Donald Middlebrooks was sentenced to death—the first time in modern Tennessee history that a white person was condemned to death for murdering a Black child.

Lisa's second child, Angellyn, was born prematurely and in a medically fragile state. Mishelle and her aunt Sabrina recount a troubling pattern: just as Angellyn would be cleared for hospital discharge, doctors would abruptly reverse course, warning that she might not survive the night. Andrea speaks to a nurse, “Judy”, who was working in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) at the time of Angellyn's hospitalizations. Judy walks us through the medical team's growing suspicions and their decision to install surveillance cameras in Angellyn's hospital room. The footage reveals deeply disturbing behavior by Lisa and Carey's utter compliance, prompting an investigation into the parents. Ultimately, custody of both Mishelle and Angellyn was revoked, and the children were placed with their maternal grandparents. *** Andrea's June 28th event with Lisa Jewell: https://townhallseattle.org/event/lisa-jewell/ Andrea's August 1st event with Gregg Olsen: https://www.libertybaybooks.com/event/west-sound-crime-con-2025-local-authors-gregg-olsen-and-andrea-dunlop Order Andrea's new book The Mother Next Door: Medicine, Deception, and Munchausen by Proxy.  Click here to view our sponsors.

Send us a textBuckle up for this one, its a really amazing, and extraordinary story of courage, will power, and total inspiration. Lindsay Boudreau had a very rare underlying illness, CMT Disease, that meant she had weakened sensations in her feet, and so she couldn't feel the pain of an infection caused by a nail she had stepped on, one day while walking. Over many weeks, she became very ill, and very weak, and doctors simply couldn't find what was wrong with her until it was too late. Eventually, on realizing the spreading infection could kill her, they took steps to amputate. Lindsay is a beacon of hope for those who are living life after limb loss, and even has a coaching business, helping other limb loss survivors and other medical trauma survivors, by building hope and resilience and practicing mindfulness and wellbeing.

I am honored to connect with Eamon Dolan today. Eamon is a book editor and is currently the Vice President and Executive Editor at Simon and Schuster. In our conversation, we discuss Eamon's book, The Power of Parting, where he explores the often-overlooked realities of abuse, shedding light on the lack of education and understanding of various types of abuse, including physical, sexual, psychological, and neglect. We explore the effects of shame, the silent conspiracy that surrounds abuse, and ways in which neuroplasticity and intentional parenting can help break generational cycles. We examine the effects of complex PTSD, adverse childhood experiences, and the connection between early trauma and physical ailments like autoimmune disorders, reproductive challenges, and digestive issues. We also reflect on our roles in childhood, how abuse shapes the developing brain, the dangers of gaslighting, and the traits of narcissistic personality disorder. In this candid and personal conversation, I share my childhood and what I witnessed while growing up with Eamon, hoping to offer clarity, comfort, and a sense of connection to anyone facing similar challenges. The Power of Parting is an essential read, particularly for those of us navigating the lasting effects of childhood abuse. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: The culture of silence surrounding abuse has led to many cases going unheard and unreported  Neurological and psychological effects of abuse Humans are wired to form family bonds with strangers. How abusive and chaotic environments often become normalized for those living within them Why survivors of abuse need to reframe their family relationships Statistics on abuse survivors and the likelihood of breaking abuse cycles Traumatic stress disorder vs.PTSD? Gaslighting is not benign. How abused children tend to rationalize mistreatment, believing it comes from love Holding family members to the same standards as friends Breaking free from toxic relationships Bio: Eamon Dolan has worked as an editor at HarperCollins, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, and Penguin Press.

Rabbit Hole: A Satanic Ritual Abuse Survivor's StoryFrom the nationwide satanic panic in the 1980s to local political cover-ups, shocking kidnappings, unsolved child murders, and scandalous pedophile rings, this book takes you behind the deceptive headlines and, finally, reveals what was going on in Omaha when all hell broke loose. Rich and well-connected members of Omaha's elite carried out unspeakable acts of abuse and even murder on innocent children. David Shurter was one of those sexually abused survivors forever scarred by the horrible rites performed on him by his own parents and other followers of Satan. It wasn't until he entered psychotherapy in midlife that long ignored childhood memories came to light, and when he discovered his gruesome nightmares were indeed real. This book, finally, is an expose of the surprising participants and unbelievable horrors involving murder, drugs, lavish parties, pedophiles, suspected government conspiracies, and the Omaha gay scene that cast a dark cloud of suspicion over an unsuspecting city. David Shurter takes you down the rabbit hole. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

They explore the mindset of denial prevalent in some private schools, the importance of recognizing and responding to trauma, and the necessity of creating supportive environments for youth. The conversation emphasizes the need for open dialogue about trauma and the responsibility of educators and communities to be prepared to support those in need.Rebecca Saunders: rebecca@setmefreeproject.netTikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@that_single_mama_shopshttps://www.tiktok.com/@wfh_single_mamaTakeawaysThe mindset of denial in schools can hinder effective responses to inappropriate situations.Trauma-informed training is essential for educators to support students effectively.Disclosures of abuse are a sign of trust and should be met with support, not disbelief.Trauma can manifest in various ways, and responses to it can differ among individuals.There is a need for schools to create safe environments for students to disclose their experiences.Understanding trauma is crucial for anyone working with children, not just educators.The importance of consent and recognizing atypical reactions to touch is vital in trauma-informed care.Youth may exhibit behaviors that are misinterpreted as 'bad' when they are actually seeking help.Communities must be aware of the hidden struggles that youth face behind closed doors.Open conversations about trauma are necessary to foster understanding and support. Support the showEveryone has resilience, but what does that mean, and how do we use it in life and leadership?

Join Covenant Eyes host Karen Potter as she welcomes special guest Yamilexis Fernandez for a powerful "Voices of Victory" episode.  Yamilexis shares her unbelievable story of overcoming a unique and challenging past, including breaking generational curses of witchcraft, abuse, and pornography addiction. In this episode, Yami offers advice for those feeling desperate and alone, emphasizing the importance of continually showing up, forgiving yourself, and recognizing that God doesn't remember confessed sins.  She beautifully unpacks the relationship between God's grace and accountability, explaining how grace super abounds beyond all sin, and how our love for God motivates obedience. Yami also provides powerful insights for young women battling comparison and the negative impacts of social media.  Drawing from Scripture, she highlights that comparison is rooted in a misunderstanding of God and self, and encourages listeners to focus on their own actions and identity in Christ.  She also calls on older Christian women to be vulnerable and share their stories to minister to younger generations who are craving authentic connection. This episode is a testament to God's transformative power, reminding us that even through the hardest trials, there is light, hope, and healing available.

In this episode, I'm diving into a question I get all the time: Is legal separation the better option for Christian women in emotionally and spiritually abusive marriages? Or is divorce actually the path to healing and wholeness?I know how hard it is to navigate these decisions, especially when your faith, your safety, and your identity are all tangled together. I've lived it. I've wrestled with it. And I've coached hundreds of women through it.So I'm walking you through the differences between legal separation and divorce from a biblical, emotional, financial, and psychological perspective without shame, fear tactics, or pressure. Just clarity, truth, and love.What You'll Learn: What legal separation really involves (hint: it's not just sleeping in separate rooms)The truth behind “God hates divorce” and what Scripture actually saysHow legal separation can keep you stuck emotionally and financiallyWhy divorce might be the healthiest choice for you and your childrenWhat your church may be getting wrong—and how to respond with courage and graceMy own story of choosing divorce and what changed in my life afterRead the full show notes and/or ask Natalie a question here Related Resources:Get a free, practical guide to legal separation and divorce that will help you decide what is best for you.Some more Flying Free Podcast episodes on divorce and separation: “How Do I Know if Divorce Is the Right Choice for Me?” “Will God Punish Me if I Get a Divorce?” “During Separation, How Do I Deal With an Overwhelming Workload and No Support?”

Text and Be Heard"Healing is possible, but time alone won't heal trauma – emotional work does." This powerful insight frames our conversation with Jackie, who brings 28 years of sobriety and hard-won wisdom to the discussion of trauma recovery.What happens when you've maintained your sobriety but still feel emotionally broken? Jackie illuminates the path many recovery journeys follow: first comes the "grace period" where simply being sober feels miraculous, followed by the inevitable surfacing of underlying trauma that originally drove the addiction. As she explains, "All of the reasons that we escaped reality are going to surface because we haven't healed any of them."The conversation takes unexpected turns through lighthearted french fry preferences before diving deep into why facing our past is essential for true freedom. Jackie shares her journey through multiple 12-step programs, therapy, and internal family systems work, explaining how each step brought different pieces of healing. Her explanation of how childhood trauma creates protective "parts" that continue running our adult lives offers a profound framework for understanding seemingly irrational behaviors and reactions.Most compelling is Jackie's perspective on generational healing. "In my family, I am probably the first person willing to look at any of it," she shares, illuminating how our willingness to heal stops patterns that might otherwise continue for generations. Her sister and mother's contrasting approaches to emotional pain demonstrate that while not everyone chooses healing, those who do create ripple effects of transformation.Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or simply interested in emotional health, this episode offers compassionate insights about the courage it takes to heal. As Jackie reminds us, "Pay attention to what life is trying to get your attention on, because life is talking to you all the time." Let this conversation be one of those signs pointing toward your own healing journey.Join our Facebook group Recovery Freedom Circle to connect with others walking similar paths of transformation.Support the showRecovery is Beautiful.

When a 911 call came in about a 12-year-old girl who had been in an accident, first responders expected a routine emergency. What they found instead raised questions that no one seemed ready to answer. We're going to follow the events that began on May 4, 2024, and trace how a child's suffering was hidden. As investigators started putting the puzzle pieces together, a dark truth appeared.

But within those moments also lies a quiet strength—the strength to survive, to speak, and ultimately, to heal.  This episode is a journey into that space of resilience and recovery. It's an exploration of how we negotiate with our past—not to erase it, but to understand it, to transform it, and to reclaim our future.

My guest in this episode, Morrene Hauser, spent decades repressing traumatic memories from her childhood. When she finally cracked open that vault, her life all but fell apart. Morrene speaks with raw honesty about surviving a childhood marked by relentless abuse at the hands of her mother and stepfathers. Morrene is driven by a fierce desire to help others by telling her painful but inspiring story. We talk about her upcoming memoir, The Good Girl, and how writing has become both a lifeline and a form of catharsis. Morrene also shares how horses played a powerful role in her healing. This conversation is about survival, reclaiming your own narrative, naming the wounds, and finding a way forward.This is Morrene Hauser's story.Links related to this episode:Morrene J.
