Love the show? Have any thoughts? Click here to let us know!This week, we're headed to the tropical paradise of Hawaii—but not for the sunshine and surf. Lauren dives into the legends of terrifying Hawaiian monsters and deities, including the powerful shapeshifting Mo‘o, the pig-man demigod Kamapua‘a, and the protective (but sometimes vengeful) ancestral spirits known as ‘Aumakua. These stories are deeply rooted in Hawaiian culture and are not just myths to everyone. Then, Kenzie covers one of Hawaii's most heartbreaking and haunting true crime cases: the disappearance and murder of 6-year-old Peter Boy Kema. For years, his face became a symbol of a case gone cold, until the truth finally came to light.

In this episode, Niall asks a provocative question: Is shouting at your children a form of child abuse?The debate was sparked by a top psychologist who claimed that shouting at children — or even arguing loudly in front of them — can be just as damaging as physically slapping them. The expert warned that such behaviour can have long-lasting emotional and psychological effects, and even suggested it should be legally recognised as harmful.Is this an overreaction? Or are we only beginning to understand the impact of verbal and emotional discipline?Some callers strongly agreed, arguing that constant shouting creates fear, anxiety, and insecurity in children. They believe emotional abuse is often overlooked simply because it doesn't leave bruises, and that parenting should focus on calm, respectful communication.Others said the idea goes too far. Parenting is chaotic, stressful, and imperfect — and sometimes raising your voice is the only way to get a message across. One caller asked: “If we ban shouting, are we also banning being human?”Others took a middle ground, saying occasional shouting doesn't equal abuse, but that consistent yelling, insults, or aggressive behaviour can cross the line into real harm.As Niall points out, this is about more than parenting styles — it's about defining where discipline ends and damage begins.

CW: This episode discusses medical child abuse.  If you're familiar with the Gypsy Rose Blanchard case, this will sound sadly familiar.  The crimes of Sophie Hartman thankfully did not go on nearly as long, but still inflicted years of pain on a little girl Hartman had adopted.   Sources https://www.fox13seattle.com/news/renton-mom-accused-of-medical-child-abuse-sues https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/washington/wawdce/2:2024cv00554/334078/58/ https://www.amazon.com/Crowns-Beauty-Brokenness-Courage-Rising/dp/1512739308 https://www.fox13seattle.com/news/renton-mother-accused-of-medical-child-abuse-against-adopted-6-year-old https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNbMDYyMPKg https://www.foxnews.com/us/washington-woman-who-lost-custody-adoptive-daughter-due-medical-abuse-claims-sues-hospital https://komonews.com/news/local/charge-renton-mom-subjected-healthy-daughter-to-450-unnecessary-medical-procedures?photo=1 https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/washington-daughter-surgeries-sophie-hartman-b1857302.html https://people.com/crime/wash-mom-charged-with-child-abuse-for-forcing-medically-unnecessary-treatment-on-adopted-6-year-old-girl/ https://nypost.com/2021/05/30/white-woman-accused-of-forcing-surgery-treatments-on-black-daughter/ https://www.king5.com/article/news/local/take-5/renton-family-fighting-daughters-rare-incurable-disorder/281-a5248875-82b8-488c-b458-b14bddc7f8c3 https://www.scribd.com/document/509421855/Sophie-Hartman-charging-documents

Send us a textDrawing the line between childhood trauma and anxiety can be one of the most challenging diagnostic dilemmas therapists face. When a child shows regression, clinginess, and somatic symptoms, are you witnessing the aftermath of abuse or the manifestation of separation anxiety disorder? The answer requires nuanced clinical judgment that goes far beyond memorizing symptom lists.This episode tackles the subtle yet critical differences that help distinguish these overlapping conditions. We explore how abuse-related hypervigilance differs from separation-specific vigilance, why the content of play reveals profound diagnostic clues, and how family dynamics can either clarify or further complicate the clinical picture. Through practical examples and licensing exam scenarios, we unpack the patterns that matter most when making these high-stakes assessments.Perhaps most importantly, we address the dangerous assumption that these conditions are mutually exclusive. Children experiencing abuse may develop separation anxiety as a protective mechanism, creating complex presentations that demand thoughtful analysis. For both new and seasoned clinicians, recognizing these nuances isn't just about passing an exam—it's about ensuring vulnerable children receive the right interventions at the right time.Whether you're preparing for your licensing exam or seeking to sharpen your diagnostic skills, this episode provides the contextual understanding and critical thinking framework needed to navigate these challenging cases with confidence and care. Remember that thorough assessment, consultation, and prioritizing child safety remain the cornerstones of ethical practice when working with our youngest and most vulnerable clients.If you need to study for your national licensing exam, try the free samplers at: LicensureExamsThis podcast is not associated with the NBCC, AMFTRB, ASW, ANCC, NASP, NAADAC, CCMC, NCPG, CRCC, or any state or governmental agency responsible for licensure.

Let’s be real. Many of us grew up hearing that exact phrase. “This is dinner. If you’re hungry, eat.

In this powerful episode of The Non-Prophets, the panel tackles the disturbing case of Robert Morris—a megachurch pastor who used his influence to shield himself after years of sexually abusing a child. The team discusses how religious power structures protect predators, silence victims, and shield moral leaders from justice. From golden parachutes to biblical forgiveness, this story exposes the entitled arrogance of spiritual abusers and the complicity of the churches that defend them.News SourceThe Friendly Atheist, “Albernas waves the unity flag in Florida as the LGBTQ+ community faces vast threats”By Hemant Mehta, May 19, 2025https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/05/faywhat-albernas-waves-the-unity-flag-in-florida-as-the-lgbtq-community-faces-vast-threats/?utm_campaign=daily-newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_edition=202505190600&utm_source=newsletterThe Non-Prophets, Episode 24.22.1 featuring Rob, Eli Slack, and Cynthia McDonaldMegachurch Pastor Abused a Child—And Wants Millions

Sara Sherbill's powerful memoir "There Was Night and There Was Morning" takes its title from the book of Genesis, establishing a profound metaphor for her life's journey from darkness to light. As the daughter of a respected rabbi who terrorized his family behind closed doors, Sarah lived a "split-screen reality" - presenting the perfect religious family image to the community while enduring horrific abuse at home.The weight of this duality crushed Sara for decades. As the eldest of five children, she felt responsible for maintaining the facade of a wholesome religious lifestyle while privately suffering at the hands of her father. This burden of secrecy and performance dominated her childhood until she finally reached a breaking point in high school when concerns for her mother's safety led her to alert authorities.What makes Sara's story particularly compelling is her unflinching examination of the complex relationship between religion and abuse. Her father specifically sought the rabbinate hoping it would "keep him in check," suggesting he possessed some awareness of his darker impulses. This revelation illuminates how religious structures can simultaneously provide cover for abusers while offering victims a framework for understanding their experiences. Sarah doesn't condemn religion itself but shows how it can be weaponized by those seeking control.The redemption in Sara's story comes not through forgiveness or reconciliation with her abuser, but through finding her voice. After discovering her father's abuse had expanded beyond family to include young women in his Florida congregation, she began publishing essays about her experiences, eventually culminating in this memoir. Through writing, Sarah transformed shame into strength and silence into power, freeing herself from carrying the burden of her father's actions with the profound realization: "I was not the man who did this... I'm just his daughter."Ready to break your own silence? Sara's journey from trauma to redemption shows how naming our pain can be the first step toward healing.

Deputies arrived and a girl answered from the other side of the locked metal doors: “We can't open it.”Inside, they found two barefoot, filthy, terrified teenagers. Five Black siblings, adopted by a white couple, were rescued that day from what prosecutors would later call one of the most disturbing cases of child torture, trafficking, and abuse in West Virginia history.In this episode, we're bringing you the trial and sentencing update in the case of Jeanne Whitefeather and Donald Lantz—the so-called “parents” who treated children like machines.Listen to the initial case here:Mid-week Mini | Adopted Washington Parents Enslave and Abuse Children and Evade CPS | Donald Lantz and Jeanne Whitefeatherhttps://murderandlove.com/mid-week-mini-adopted-washington-parents-enslave-and-abuse-children-and-evade-cps-donald-lantz-and-jeanne-whitefeather/**************************************Do you have thoughts about this case, or is there a specific true crime case you'd like to hear about? Let me know with an email or a voice message: https://murderandlove.com/contactFind the sources used in this episode and learn more about how to support Love and Murder: Heartbreak to Homicide and gain access to even more cases, including bonus episodes, ad-free and intro-free cases, case files and more at: https://murderandlove.comMusic:℗ lesfreemusicBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/love-and-murder-heartbreak-to-homicide--4348896/support.

SVU Detective Richard Hy joins us again with The Fat Electrician to show even more evidence that the Buffalo school system is obstructing justice and not reporting abuse. If you are concerned about these findings please send a report on https://tips.fbi.gov Subject: Complaint Regarding Buffalo Public Schools – Alleged Failure to Report Abuse and Obstruction of Investigations Dear FBI Buffalo Field Office, I am writing to formally submit a complaint concerning serious allegations of misconduct within the Buffalo Public Schools (BPS) system, specifically regarding the failure to report incidents of child abuse, sexual assault, and attempted abductions, as well as alleged obstruction of law enforcement investigations. These concerns have been brought to public attention through recent statements by Buffalo Police Detective Richard Hy and related media reports. Nature of the Issue: I am concerned about reports that BPS officials have intentionally failed to report incidents of child abuse, sexual assault, and attempted abductions involving students, as required by New York State law for mandated reporters. Additionally, there are allegations that BPS employees and legal representatives have obstructed police investigations by ignoring subpoenas, deleting evidence, and instructing staff not to cooperate with law enforcement. Specific Incidents The February 2025 incident at Dr. Charles R. Drew Science Magnet School involving an attempted abduction, where the school allegedly failed to notify parents and deleted video evidence. There are also several cases where a students reported abuse to counselors who failed to report it, leading to delayed intervention Impact: These alleged actions undermine the safety of students in BPS, violate mandatory reporting laws, and erode public trust in both the school district and law enforcement's ability to protect vulnerable children. I respectfully request that the FBI investigate these allegations to determine whether federal or state laws have been violated, including potential civil rights violations, obstruction of justice, or failure to comply with mandatory reporting requirements. I urge a thorough review of BPS's practices, including their handling of incident reports, compliance with subpoenas, and interactions with law enforcement. If warranted, I request that appropriate actions be taken to hold responsible parties accountable and ensure the safety of students. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I trust that the FBI will handle this complaint with the seriousness it demands to protect the children of Buffalo Public Schools. Please let me know if additional information is required to assist in your investigation. Sincerely, [Your Full Name] ------------------------------ THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS!

     Slam the Gavel welcomes back Carrie Haight to the podcast. Carrie was last on Season 5, Episodes 185 and 221. Carrie has a Bachelor's in Politics and Pre-law and a Masters in Psychology and has been a licensed therapist for the last 20 years.     On her first podcast, titled, "No One Would Listen," we decided to go in-depth with the details of her case involving CPS to expose the false allegations of Munchausen by Proxy, in Morris County, New Jersey. All of this began with a threatening text from her mother. Recordings prove this was a disgusting set up that almost cost Carrie the loss of her daughter who is genuinely ill.    At present her daughter is under the care of  two major hospitals and a complex medical team under the one hospital. When asked if Carrie will 'just forget this happened,' Carrie answers, "this was life altering and she has lost four years of her life."To Reach Carrie Haight:  dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comSupportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536  Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com   https://ko-fi.com/maryannpetri*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

    Slam the Gavel welcomes Theodora Antar to the podcast. She is a law student, mother, notary, and nationwide legal advocate based in Connecticut. She is the founder of Pro Legal USA, a platform dedicated to exposing injustice and advocating for families impacted by corruption in the legal system.     Theodora's advocacy is deeply personal. As a mother of two daughters, Angelina (age 5) and Julianna (age 10), she has experienced firsthand the trauma of family court corruption. On May 25, 2023, her youngest daughter was illegally removed from her care in a Connecticut court proceeding overseen by Judge Jane Kupson Grossman, where Theodora was denied due process. Less than a year later, on March 9, 2024, her eldest daughter was taken by Port Authority Police at JFK International Airport after they enforced an unserved ex parte custody order, again issued by the same judge. Theodora has not seen Angelina since March 7, 2024, or Julianna since March 9, 2024.     Her fight for justice began after she reported the sexual abuse of a minor—a disclosure that led to ongoing government retaliation and a campaign of persecution against her by Connecticut authorities. For two years, Theodora has tirelessly advocated for constitutional rights, government accountability, and child welfare, using her legal training and personal experience to support others facing similar injustices.     Through Pro Legal USA and her public advocacy, Theodora works to shine a light on systemic failures, empower other parents, and demand reform in family courts nationwide.

The FBI arrests alleged child predators. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) hires a new top vaccine official to replace Dr. Peter Marks.

"There is a cure for addiciton, and His name is Jesus."- Storyteller, Candace Jones According to the 2023 United States National Survey on Drug Use and Health over 48 million Americans battled a substance use disorder over the past year, making it abundantly clear- addiction does not discriminate.  Today on the podcast, Candace Jones, who spoke at our Mountain Brook community's live gathering, shares her story of struggling with drugs and alcohol and how she quickly spiraled into the evil and dark world of selling drugs.  Through her candidness, Candace clearly reminds us of the importance of having a relationship with Jesus, relying on Him rather than yourself, and the imperative role community plays when you are battling the lies of the enemy. IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: -Addiciton can affect anyone-it does not care where you are from or what type of family you grew up in- and it can quickly take over your life.  -God is seeking after a relationship with you, not religion and rules. - When God restores, He can do immeasurably more than you can ask or imagine.

In this powerful and deeply insightful conversation, Rahel Bayar sits down with Nachi Gordon to discuss her journey from being a sex crimes and child abuse prosecutor in the Bronx to founding The Bayar Group, an organization dedicated to abuse and harassment prevention across North America. Rahel shares how her early aspirations in psychology shifted to law, leading her to work on some of the most difficult cases imaginable—domestic violence, child abuse, and sexual assault. With years of courtroom experience and firsthand exposure to trauma, she eventually asked herself: Can this be prevented? Now a leading educator and consultant, Rahel trains schools, camps, and youth organizations on how to build safe environments without instilling fear. She breaks down practical prevention tools—like teaching children about body safety, the difference between secrets and surprises, and how to foster open communication—especially within the frum (religious Jewish) community. Whether you're a parent, educator, or community leader, this episode will leave you thinking differently about what it means to protect children and empower communities. “No healthy grown-up needs a child to keep a secret.” — Rahel Bayar   This episode was made possible thanks to our sponsors: ►Blooms Kosher   Bring you the best Kosher products worldwide.   https://bloomskosher.com   ____________________________________________________   ► PZ Deals - Download the app and never pay full price again!     https://app.pz.deals/install/mpp _____________________________________________________ ►Toveedo     Visit- https://toveedoshop.com   Use Promo Code MM10 for $10 off! __________________________________________________ ► Aleph Beta   Counting the Omer can feel like just counting.

Mark Harris is the author of "Houses of the Holy: A Nightmare Web of Hate, Crime, Corruption and Child Abuse" which is about a riveting true story of survival, perseverance, and a fight for justice that cuts to the heart of corruption. In this deeply unsettling exposé, Mark Harris pulls back the curtain on a powerful nexus where the federal government, state officials, far-right extremists, religious leaders, the mob, and the secretive world of Freemasonry converge in unholy alliances. This unprecedented journey reveals the depths of influence wielded by money and religion over politics and law enforcement, exposing the legacy of hate and corruption entwined within. Harris introduces a cast of larger-than-life characters, each as bizarre as they are terrifying: a convicted criminal with immunity from the law, a mobster's son linked to crime boss Santo Trafficante Jr., George W. Bush's former attorney, a doctor who handpicked the first astronauts, and a lineup of religious figures willing to overlook any sin to shield a monster.

This week on the Black Rifle Coffee Podcast, Logan Stark sits down with Richard Hy, better known as Angry Cop. Richard lays out the disturbing allegations coming out of Buffalo Public Schools: claims of mishandled sexual assault cases, systemic silence, and a refusal to act. Fresh off his appearance on the Unsubscribe Podcast, Richard breaks down what's really going on behind the scenes: underreporting, obstruction, and a system more concerned with optics than accountability. They talk about the need for third-party investigations, the media's role (or lack of one), and why community pressure might be the only way forward. This isn't just about Buffalo, it's about protecting kids, demanding answers, and not letting anyone hide behind a desk.

Houses of the Holy is a riveting true story of survival, perseverance, and a fight for justice that cuts to the heart of corruption. In this deeply unsettling exposé, Mark Harris pulls back the curtain on a powerful nexus where the federal government, state officials, far-right extremists, religious leaders, the mob, and the secretive world of Freemasonry converge in unholy alliances. This unprecedented journey reveals the depths of influence wielded by money and religion over politics and law enforcement, exposing the legacy of hate and corruption entwined within. Harris introduces a cast of larger-than-life characters, each as bizarre as they are terrifying: a convicted criminal with immunity from the law, a mobster's son linked to crime boss Santo Trafficante Jr., George W. Bush's former attorney, a doctor who handpicked the first astronauts, and a lineup of religious figures willing to overlook any sin to shield a monster. Alongside former Governor Rick Scott and future Acting U.S. Attorney Generals, these figures build a twisted tapestry that Harris courageously unravels, shedding light on the shocking, hidden power plays that sustain their authority.BookWebsite" There is some jumping in this recording; while I've repaired most of it, as you will hear The Opperman Report had to cut the first call short as it became difficult to hear the interviewee and then continue on another, more stable connection. These things happen, but the content is good and worth hearing.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
