In the second half of our conversation, Stacia Schnoor walks us through the courtroom battle that followed Sabrina's death — the evidence, the testimony and the moments that forced her to relive the worst day of her life. She speaks candidly about the weight of the trial, the community's response, and the complicated mix of relief and heartbreak that comes with a verdict. This episode captures the inadequacy of what justice looks like after unimaginable loss and how a mother keeps fighting to protect her daughter's story long after the headlines fade.Contact me at silverliningshandbookpod@gmail.comCheck out the Silver Linings Handbook website at:https://silverliningshandbook.com/Check out our Patreon to support the show at:https://www.patreon.com/thesilverliningshandbookJoin our Facebook Group at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1361159947820623Visit the Silver Linings Handbook store to support the podcast at:https://www.bonfire.com/store/the-silver-linings-handbook-podcast-storeVisit The True Crime Times Substack at:https://truecrimemessenger.substack.comThe Silver Linings Handbook podcast is a part of the ART19 network.

In Lake Cargelligo in central west New South Wales, police are hunting for an alleged triple murderer. Julian Ingram, also known as Julian Pierpoint, is suspected of shooting dead his former partner Sophie Quinn, who was seven months pregnant, as well as her new partner John Harris and her aunt Nerida Quinn. He also allegedly shot and injured Kaleb Macqueen.Reged Ahmad speaks with Nino Bucci about the alleged murderer's past domestic violence offences, and the questions that linger while he is still at large

What if doctors and medical professionals, highly trained to identify child maltreatment through bruises and fractures, miss many injuries in children that leave no visible marks, yet are biologically and developmentally formative in ways that shape a child's entire quality of life and health?In this episode of Partnered with a Survivor, David and Ruth Mandel sit down with Dr. Norell Rosado, a child abuse pediatrician at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, to examine how child maltreatment is currently identified in medical settings and where that approach falls dangerously short. We discuss how we can assist medical practitioners to better assess for child abuse injuries and danger that may not be seen, by using a pattern based rather than an incident based approach. Dr. Rosado explains that bruises and fractures remain the primary lens through which child physical abuse is identified, even though neglect is the most common form of maltreatment and many serious injuries leave no visible marks. Together, we explore how this narrow focus combined with time pressure, fear of court involvement, and lack of behavioral training creates gaps that allows for harm to go unseen by professionals. The conversation moves beyond bruise and bone based injuries to patterns which may help uncover silent injuries and invisible abuse. We unpack how domestic abuse and coercive control interfere with children's health in ways pediatric care often misses, including limbic harm, developmental delays, failure to thrive. We discuss perpetrator patterns like,  disrupting therapy and medication adherence, restricting access to food, heat, or transportation, and undermining a protective parent's ability to follow medical guidance or maintain safe housing. We ask the critical question rarely built into clinical practice: Is anyone interfering with this child's care or this parent's ability to parent safely?Dr. Rosado speaks candidly about mandated reporting, reasonable suspicion, and the anxieties clinicians face, especially when they have long-standing relationships with families. He also highlights the role of bias and why simple, consistent protocols can help clinicians ask better questions, reduce inequities, and document patterns rather than isolated incidents.We dig into the science behind what clinicians are seeing but often cannot name. From traumatic brain injuries without bruising to emerging research on epigenetics, the episode makes clear that exposure to violence can alter gene expression, increasing lifelong risk for chronic disease, disability, and early death. Child maltreatment, we argue, is not just a clinical concern. It is a multigenerational public health emergency.Throughout the conversation, we empSend a text Now available!

This podcast discusses domestic violence. Sit this one out if you need to Many of us are enraged, shocked, and paralysed by the unfolding information from the JE files. Many of us are also dismayed at the continuing epidemic of domestic violence and murder-by-partner. What do we do? How can we help change things? We can learn how to be an ally in our own communities and circles better. Outrage and sadness must be used as springboards for action, I truly believe it. I'm joined by counsellor and author Patricia Gordon Stevens to talk about domestic and partner violence — a subject too often minimised, despite affecting 25% of women in some of the world's wealthiest countries. We explore why silence and discomfort only deepen the harm, and why education, community, and care matter so deeply.In this conversation, we cover:Why the moment a woman chooses to leave is often the most dangerous timeHow coercive control can appear long before physical violence doesThe subtle red flags friends, families, and colleagues can look forHow to ask caring, non-judgmental questions that keep the connection openWhy Patricia chose fiction (Madness in Memphis) to build empathy that leads to actionThe role men can play in calling out harmful behaviour and changing culture locallyThis episode is confronting, but it's also hopeful. Change doesn't start with grand gestures — it starts with noticing, staying connected, and showing up for the women in our lives.I hope you find it useful and helpful as I did, Alexx, your host.

How Racism and Systemic Oppression Mirror Domestic Violence Dynamics (and Why ‘Just Leave' Doesn't Work)If you've ever thought “why don't they just leave?”—this episode is a reframe. In a rant-style but emotionally safe way, I break down why leaving toxic environments (relationships, jobs, communities, and systems) often isn't about willpower—it's about coercive control, trauma bonds, isolation, shame, and resource barriers.I'm using a framework/parallel (not claiming every experience is identical): if we can understand why someone stays in an abusive relationship, we can understand why groups stay in abusive systems—and why shaming them is part of the control.We cover: coercive control, trauma bond patterns, toxic relationships, emotionally unavailable dynamics, boundaries, generational trauma, Black fatigue (and how it gets hijacked), racism and trauma, workplace toxicity, and toxic friendships—plus what to do instead.00:00:00 — Welcome + what I'm finally naming00:01:16 — My personal context + why I'm qualified to say this00:01:51 — The racism ↔ DV parallel (framework, not identical experiences)00:03:13 — Why “just leave” isn't simple (and why shame is control)00:06:08 — “Just create your own safe spaces” (why that's historically blocked)00:07:32 — Systemic control + shaming as a tool00:09:10 — Toxic workplaces + hazing + coercive control “lite”00:10:25 — Empathy, resources, and what people ignore about leaving00:16:26 — Definitions: coercive control, isolation, trauma bonds00:20:21 — Leaving is about safety + resources + risk (not morality)00:27:29 — Reputation damage + opportunities lost (control beyond romance)00:31:03 — Black fatigue: misunderstood, hijacked, and weaponized00:37:28 — The Clear Exit Framework (step-by-step roadmap)00:41:05 — Support options + healing resources + how to get help00:43:24 — Closing encouragement + next stepsWork with me:Generational Trauma Insight Session (Paid): https://liveandbegreat.com/generational-trauma-insight-session-storeFree consult (Coaching): https://outlook.office.com/book/LiveBeGreatLLC1@liveandbegreat.com/?ismsaljsauthenabled=trueKeywords: racism, domestic violence, coercive control, trauma bonds, systemic oppression, shame, black fatigue, isolation, empathy, generational trauma

Send us a textCarol and Jen welcome guest Wade Milyard.Fresh Step Laundry was founded by Wade Milyard in the summer of 2024. The inspiration for this initiative came from his experiences meeting unhoused individuals in Frederick during his time working as a police officer. He observed firsthand how essential having clean clothes was for their dignity and well-being. Recognizing this critical need, he decided to create a service that offers free laundry services for people facing homelessness. After his retirement in January of 2025, Wade began the process of designing and building a mobile laundry vehicle that could conveniently meet individuals wherever they were. Following the completion of the vehicle's upfitting and necessary preparations, Fresh Step Laundry officially began serving the community on September 4th, 2025. For more information go to www.freshsteplaundry.comTo see Wade on CBS Steve Hartman "On the Road"https://youtu.be/QcrjPcLlPPg?si=-Drd5txzUi9pwSmW

As originally told on Discovery ID's show, Toxic, Kelly believed she had learned to trust her instincts. A licensed therapist and homeowner who had already survived profound loss, she thought she had finally found the perfect partner when she met Chris—charming, attentive, and deeply loving, with no obvious red flags.⚠️ Content Advisory: This episode discusses emotional manipulation, coercive control, and relationship abuse. Listener discretion is advised.But after they married, everything changed. Kelly became mysteriously ill, doctors had no answers, and her husband began pushing her boundaries in ways that left her confused and isolated. As her health declined, Kelly followed a gut instinct that led her to a discovery she couldn't ignore—one that would set off a chain of events escalating into terrifying violence in Part 2.Resources & Links:

The day of Monday, May 29, 2023, seemed to be filled with apprehension and anticipation for Sabrina Schooner. After talking to friends who warned her against it, she decided to meet with her ex-boyfriend one last time before he headed off to prison.

Many people believe trauma only counts if a child is physically harmed. This episode challenges that belief by exploring how witnessing domestic violence silently shapes the mind, emotions, and relationships for years to come. If you've ever felt guilt, fear, hypervigilance, or self-doubt without knowing why, this conversation offers clarity and relief. You'll learn how early exposure to fear and unpredictability forms hidden beliefs—and how naming those experiences can open the door to healing. About the Guest: Brian F. Martin is the Founder and CEO of the Childhood Domestic Violence Association. He is the author of Invincibleand executive producer of the award-winning documentary The Children Next Door. Key Takeaways: Witnessing domestic violence can be as damaging as direct physical abuse Children often internalize guilt for situations they never caused or controlled Naming childhood domestic violence is a critical first step toward healing Challenging false beliefs can reduce shame and emotional burden Safe conversations can transform trauma into resilience How to Connect With the Guest Website: https://cdv.org/  Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

Genesis experts Ruth Guerreiro and Jordyn Lawson join the conversation to unpack models that explain domestic violence and provide real, practical solutions for survivors and those who support them. Together we walk through the Cycle of Violence framework as well as the Power and Control Wheel derived from the Duluth Model to understand their origins, purpose, and applications. Our discussion also grounds these theories in real-world practice: how survivors can identify escalation cues, why a “violent episode” isn't limited to physical harm, and the safety planning steps that can reduce risk at each stage—at home, during separation, and long after. We explore the emotional work of healing—naming love bombing, processing betrayal, and rebuilding trust in one's instincts.Throughout the conversation, we push past outdated terms to language that validates lived realities and sharpens judgment: manipulative kindness over “honeymoon phase,” impact over intent, control over conflict. Whether you're a survivor, ally, or professional, you'll leave with clearer frameworks, practical examples, and a more intentional way to talk about and respond to abuse. 

On the four year anniversary of Karen Read's murder of John O'Keefe, we go back and look at how her innocence fraud campaign began without the involvement of Aidan “Turtleboy” Kearney.

Jan. 30, 2026- The Trump administration has jeopardized millions of dollars used by nonprofits in New York for shelter serving the homeless, including survivors of domestic violence. We discuss this precarious situation with Michael Polenberg of Safe Horizon.

Sarah Grace Patrick was denied bond today in Carroll County, Georgia. The 17-year-old accused of killing her mother Kristin Brock and stepfather James Brock will remain in solitary confinement as her trial gets pushed to August 2026.Judge Dustin Hightower cited flight risk and revealed that family members have signed contracts with media production companies for a documentary — raising concerns about financial motivation.But buried in the court record is a history nobody's discussing. In 2022, Kristin was charged with attempting to run James over with a car. James filed for a protective order with allegations of abuse and 911 interference. The order was dismissed weeks later. They married in 2023.Bond hearing witnesses testified Sarah showed signs of trauma — apologizing for eating, showering, using the bathroom. Her best friend said she was never allowed inside Sarah's home. Court documents reveal cameras were in Sarah's bedroom and were removed before the murders.Sarah has been in isolation for seven months. Research shows juvenile solitary causes permanent psychological damage. The UN defines it as torture after 15 days.Kristin's parents believe Sarah is innocent. James's family fears for their lives. The victims' own families are at war.#SarahGracePatrick #BondDenied #CarrollCounty #TrueCrimeToday #KristinBrock #JamesBrock #GeorgiaMurder #Breaking #SolitaryConfinement #DocumentaryJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

I know our listeners from around the world are going through difficult times as well. So I just wanted to take a minute…It's uplifting that you're listening in today - that you're tuning in to hear the GOOD that people are doing for one another. Because they sure are, even though it's not what's plastered on the news, on our TV screens, and on our social media feeds. These stories are just as real. Empathy, generosity, kindness, and love are just as real. Though that's a challenge in itself, isn't it? Navigating life knowing that these opposites exist side-by-side? But…the folks featured on this show, episode in and episode out, are our guides to the constant good, and can serve as our inspiration to recognize our own unique gifts that can be used to build community and to help those in need. It is my honor to be the bearer of all of this GOODness. Thank you for being here.Tressa has the joy of welcoming Tim Lydon back to the show - yinz will remember him from Episode 122. Tim is the Co-founder of Harmony Dog Rescue and the recently-named Team Lead for The Street Dog Coalition Pittsburgh.

  What does it really take to leave an abusive relationship—and how can community save lives?     In this deeply moving episode of the PowerWomen Podcast, co-hosts Claire Brown and Gayatri Agnew sit down with Camryn Ross and her mother, Andrea Sayre, to break the silence around domestic violence, shame, and survival. Together, they share a raw, multi-generational conversation about the emotional manipulation that keeps women trapped, the courage it takes to reclaim self-worth, and why leaving is a process—not a single moment.     This episode offers hope, clarity, and practical guidance for anyone impacted by domestic abuse—directly or indirectly. You'll hear why women often attempt to leave multiple times, how isolation erodes confidence, and why empathy and presence matter more than judgment. Most importantly, this conversation highlights real resources, real support systems, and real pathways to safety and healing. If you or   someone you love needs support, this episode reminds you of one essential truth: you matter because you breathe—and help is closer than you think.     If you or a loved one needs help, here are some local and national resources:   National Coalition Against Domestic Violence https://ncadv.org/   National Domestic Violence Hotline/Website: 800-799-7233 https://www.thehotline.org/   For Shelters Near You: https://www.domesticshelters.org/   Arkansas Coalition Against Domestic Violence: https://domesticpeace.com/   Women and Children First 800-332-4443     POWERWOMEN LINKS:     WEBSITE: https://thepowerwomen.org/     LR FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1807102609586780     NWA FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/www.thepowerwomen.org     INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/powerw.o.m.e.n     YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@PowerWomenPodcast     Podcast Produced by clantoncreative.com

We are re-airing this episode in light of Human Trafficking Awareness Day (Jan. 11th). Hope and Strength goes out to all victims, suffering and saved.[Content Warning]: Neglect, Substance Abuse, Domestic Violence, Child Sexual Abuse, Rape, Human Trafficking of a Child ,Exploitation, Attempted Suicide, and Graphic Discussions of Abuse Related Injuries.Today, Jan is joined by Elizabeth Rose, who shares her story of neglect and childhood sexual abuse that began early on in her life. She talks about the normalization of abuse in her home and the grooming and manipulation she experienced. Being trafficked as a teenager, abandoned by her mother, and living in multiple foster care homes as an adolescent, Elizabeth Rose has a unique perspective on the systemic injustices that are faced by children who are neglected, abused and exploited. In this conversation, Jan and Elizabeth Rose discuss the importance of education, advocacy, trauma-informed care, and support for survivors of human trafficking. They highlight the need for community belief and understanding, as well as the role of legislation in preventing and addressing trafficking.  They also discuss the notion that many people believe human trafficking only occurs far away, but in reality, it's happening right here in North America, often perpetrated by someone familiar to us.  Lastly, they discuss the systemic failures in the support systems for survivors and the need for resources as well as education in the community. The conversation ends with a message of hope and resilience for all survivors and Elizabeth Rose shares about how being an advocate for others has helped her in her healing journey.Elizabeth Rose would like to highlight:The Joy Smith FoundationLuma & BloomIf you or someone you know is experiencing emotional distress or suicidal ideation, please access the resources below:National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline: Call/Text 988National Sexual Assault Hotline  (RAINN) : 1-800-656-HOPE (4673)National Alliance for Mental Illness: 1-800-950-6264Subscribe / Support / Contact:

Stephen Martin's latest story was a deep dive into the Survivors' Act and how, a year after it became law, implementation hasn't been what everyone hoped. Paul Monies looked into the large numbers of lawmakers running for higher office and how they are able to keep their leadership positions in the Legislature. J.C. Hallman returns with another story about State Farm, which over the past two months has come under significant scrutiny over bad-faith roof claims. This story is a little different and much more tragic. Ted Streuli hosts.

Crises don't just knock out power—they unravel the safeguards that keep predators at bay. We dig into how traffickers exploit natural disasters, pandemics, and even major events by stepping into system failures with promises of food, shelter, and work that morph into coercion and control. From labor trafficking in post-hurricane rebuilds to targeted online recruitment of displaced single mothers, we connect the dots between vulnerability, policy loopholes, and criminal opportunity.Our guest, Benjamin Greer, a trafficking subject-matter expert who trains law enforcement and advises a state threat assessment center, breaks down real-world case studies and the modalities behind them: forced labor disguised as reconstruction, illicit adoption pipelines after the Haiti earthquake, and the way suspended wage protections can trigger a “gold rush” of poorly monitored contracts. We talk frankly about data gaps around big sporting events, why preparedness still matters, and how to turn these high-attention moments into training, service mapping, and smarter plans.We also shift to a public health lens. Pandemic closures revealed new disruption tools—like utility shutoffs and health code enforcement—that pushed illicit businesses out of the shadows. Then we widen the circle: code enforcement, utility workers, delivery drivers, rideshare drivers, shelter intake teams, and building inspectors can all be first identifiers with the right signals and anonymous reporting paths. In court, we unpack why expert witnesses on trauma and coercive control help juries make sense of texts, timelines, and victim behavior that seem contradictory but align with science.Finally, we go after the motive: money. Stronger fines, meaningful restitution, and modern asset forfeiture that targets the instrumentalities of coercion—homes, vehicles, farms, business premises—can make exploitation a losing proposition. Pair that with multidisciplinary task forces, shared intel platforms, and survivor-centered services, and communities can close the space traffickers rely on. 

We start with a snow-bright morning and end with a sharper lens. We sit down with advocate and system analyst Valerie Frost to explore how systems built to protect families can become tools of coercive control—and how to change that trajectory with better listening, precise language, and survivor-centered practice. Valerie traces the everyday realities of child welfare, family court, schools, and law enforcement, showing where checklists fail, how jargon shuts doors, and why knowledge inequity forces survivors to learn a foreign language just to get help.We dig into visible versus invisible harm and why non-physical abuse or coercive control often gets dismissed or misread, leaving anxiety and hypervigilance weaponized against the survivor. From “customer service” logic for public systems to the risks of records, we examine how police calls and protection orders can be turned against survivors, and how both over-engagement with systems and system hesitancy get blamed. The conversation moves from critique to action: validating protective parenting, centering context over compliance, and anchoring assessments in the perpetrator's pattern rather than the survivor's reactions.Valerie shares practical tools—build a dated log, control your narrative with consistent documentation, protect your basics like sleep and hydration—and argues for policy shifts that mandate recognition of coercive control, limit unnecessary information sharing, and reward restraint over surveillance. We also talk about showing up whole: professionals who are survivors, survivors who lead, and creating rooms where the end user defines engagement. The takeaway is simple and demanding: Systems don't need more policies as much as they need better listening; survivors have already mapped where harm happens.If this conversation resonates, subscribe, share it with a colleague or friend, and leave a review so more people can find survivor-centered guidance that actually helps.Send us a text Now available!

In Levisay's memoir “Love is Not Always the Answer” she writes about how this relationship took her to places she never thought she would go & would forceher to face challenges she could have never predicted she would have to conquer: not as a lawyer but as a criminal defendant charged with harboring a fugitive & lastly as a convict fighting to retain her legal license.

 Tiffany Newton is on a mission to empower women to recognize the red flags and warning signs of an abusive relationship to prevent them from becoming entangled in one. Seven years after leaving an abusive relationship herself, Tiffany has turned her pain into purpose. She is the President and Co-Founder of IgniteHer INC, is in the process of pursuing her certification through Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, participates in domestic violence advocacy, serves on the local Sexual Response Teams and Domestic Violence task force. She is also the author of the powerful and informative book titled "Behind The Smile." Tiffiny shares her own personal story of becoming embroiled in an abusive and controlling relationship as well as the controlling and manipulation that went along with it. She explains how the abuser ingratiates himself (or herself) to his chosen victim, beginning with the slow, insidious process of grooming, which continued to escalate to control, gaslighting, manipulation, and more. Tiffany describes how she finally reached her limit and her line in the sand, giving her the strength and courage to save herself, her dogs, and walk away from her abuser. She shares valuable information to women (and men) who are embroiled in abusive relationships and regain their autonomy and personal power. This powerful and educational episode is a must listen and needs to be shared so we can help educate women, girls, and men to identify the warning signs and stop the pervasive pandemic of abuse.        Connect with Tiffany: https://tiffinynewton.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@IgniteHerInc/videos https://www.instagram.com/igniteherinc/ Want to be a guest on TheFemiNinjaProject?

What if the most powerful weapon in an abusive relationship isn't a fist, but a login? We sit down with Jordyn Lawson, Chief Residential Officer at Genesis Women's Shelter & Support, to unpack how financial abuse and coerced debt quietly trap survivors—even long after they leave. From paychecks diverted into hidden accounts to loans opened under threat or deception, money becomes a leash: it governs housing, food, credit, and the ability to move toward safety.Jordyn shares what frontline work reveals: the overwhelming prevalence of financial control, the shock of discovering debts for cars or even boats survivors never saw, and why credit scores can become gatekeepers to a new home or job. We connect the dots between personal harm and public cost—billions lost to intimate partner violence, millions of workdays missed, and the chilling number of workplace homicides tied to abusers. Most importantly, we map the way forward: how to spot red flags, how loved ones can support without minimizing, and how workplaces should prepare to protect employees targeted by abusers.There's real hope in policy and practice. We highlight legal reforms that recognize coerced debt as identity theft in Texas, how survivors can challenge fraudulent accounts, and why advocacy partnerships streamline credit repair with minimal cost. We also dig into financial literacy strategies that restore control—pulling credit reports on safe devices, securing independent accounts, documenting coercion, and planning for deposits and child care. Along the way, we confront enduring myths about who works, who controls the money, and why “everyone fights about finances” is not a free pass for abuse.If you care about safety, equity, or simply want to help someone you love, this conversation gives you clear tools and next steps. Listen, share with a friend, and help us push for policies and workplace practices that put safety first.

What happens when David turns the tables on Ruth and interviews her—seven years into their shared body of work?In this special anniversary episode, David marks seven years since Ruth joined the Safe & Together Institute by stepping into the interviewer role. This is a founder-level conversation about vision, values, the hard work of scaling, and how systems actually change when lived experience is treated as critical professional expertise—not an add-on.Ruth traces her journey from working with medical practitioners to helping transform Safe & Together from a training organization into a systems-change engine. She shares the deeper vision behind that shift: embedding domestic abuse–informed, trauma-informed, child-centered practice into the real operating conditions of systems through values-aligned leadership, business rigor, and strong operations. A central theme is supporting frontline workers—how poor practice, rigid forms, siloed communication, and unrealistic mandates make ethical work harder, and how better systems design can reduce moral injury and make good practice more sustainable.Ruth also introduces the Credible Expert approach, embedding diverse, system-literate survivors as compensated contributors to design, strategy, and decision-making. Together, they offer an unflinching critique of “reduce removals” initiatives and explain what meaningful reform actually requires.Looking ahead, they introduce SafetyNexus, a technology platform designed to coach practitioners, map perpetrator patterns, strengthen documentation, and streamline workflows—without replacing professional judgment—while centering survivor governance from the start.This episode is both a milestone and an invitation to keep building systems that save lives and save money.Please follow us, share this episode, and send us your comments.Send us a text Now available!

In this episode of Police Off The Cuff, we examine the domestic violence dynamics that investigators say played a critical role in the tragic murders of Monique and Spencer Tepe. While much public attention has focused on evidence and timelines, this discussion looks deeper—into the behavioral patterns, emotional escalation, and warning signs that law enforcement professionals recognize in domestic-related homicide cases. Using an investigative lens grounded in real police procedure, we break down how former intimate relationships can remain volatile long after separation, why the period after a breakup is often the most dangerous, and how unresolved control, resentment, and fixation can escalate into deadly violence. We also discuss the police investigation, family responses, and how detectives evaluate past interactions, communication patterns, and behavioral red flags when domestic violence is suspected. This episode is not about speculation or trial by media. It is about understanding how domestic violence evolves, how law enforcement identifies risk factors, and why recognizing these signs matters—not just for this case, but for prevention in the future. If you follow true crime through a law-enforcement perspective, this episode provides critical insight into how cases like the Tepe murders are investigated—and why domestic violence must always be taken seriously, even when it's no longer visible.

What if “I do” isn't a choice? We sit down with Hellitz Villegas, Project Manager of the Forced Marriage Initiative at the Tahirih Justice Center, to expose how forced marriage operates in the U.S.—and why consent must include the partner, the timing, and the freedom to say no without fear. We move beyond stereotypes to examine the hidden machinery of coercion: family pressure, spiritual manipulation, financial dependence, and the weaponization of immigration status that keeps survivors silent.Hellitz shares how Tahirih's integrated model—legal services, social services, and policy advocacy—supports immigrant survivors of gender-based violence while the Forced Marriage Initiative serves people facing forced or child marriage across statuses. We clarify the difference between arranged and forced marriage, trace the links to domestic and sexual violence, and highlight the unique vulnerability window before a ceremony when a survivor senses what's coming. The conversation covers high-control religious groups, family-based trafficking, and cases where marriage is used to “correct” a survivor's identity or life choices.We also dive into child marriage in America: why loopholes still allow minors—mostly girls—to wed adult men, the lifelong consequences of early marriage, and the policy momentum to end it. From local bans to the federal Child Marriage Prevention Act, we explore how closing immigration loopholes and setting a bright-line age of 18 with no exceptions can change lives. Along the way, we name the real barriers to help—fear of deportation, mistrust of systems, and cultural stigma—and share practical pathways to safety, rights, and support.If you care about consent, community safety, and human dignity, this is a vital listen.
