It has been a dizzying week in UK politics since the publication of the latest of the Epstein files, and the revelations of his links to Westminster. But as the politics took over, it is the voice of survivors that is the centre of this story.This Friday Lewis is joined by Natalie Fleet, Labour MP for Bolsover, to discuss the politics of the last week, finding a voice for the women and victims of grooming, and whether she trusts the Prime Minister to deliver.The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/

We cover growing up in Bradford, how she met the men that would come to abuse her, and some of her early experiences.As Fiona says: The inquiry into grooming gangs should not be centred on race. It should be centred on how the abuse operated.Grooming gangs follow specific patterns. The way they target, manipulate, control, and exploit children has distinct characteristics. That is what makes this form of abuse unique — not the race of the perpetrators, but the methods, structures, and systemic failures that allowed it to continue.Any gang-based exploitation of children should be examined thoroughly, regardless of race — especially where it was ignored, dismissed, or facilitated by agencies such as the police, social services, and other safeguarding bodies. BUT if race or religion is relivent to that victims abuse the victims should be able to voice it and discuss it without facing further abuse. We must learn to talk about experiances openly to understand the full picture.My focus is not race. My focus is the abuse: how it worked, why it was allowed to continue, and why the rape and exploitation of children was not properly acknowledged or prevented.That said, all relevant data should be gathered. Race, religion, sexuality, gender, class, and criminal background should be recorded and analysed — not to fuel division, but to identify patterns, disproportionalities, and systemic blind spots. We cannot design effective prevention frameworks without understanding the full picture. Fear of racism played a huge part in the enabling of many victims abuse and that must be acknowledged.This must be about protecting children.All relevant information — no matter how uncomfortable — should be examined honestly. And then we need open, evidence-based conversations about why these failures happened and how to prevent them from ever happening again.Because safeguarding children should always come before politics, fear, or stigma.Watch episode 1 here, or listen wherever you get your podcastshttps://www.openjusticeuk.org/ This is a public episode.

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Natalie Henley, CEO of Volume Nine, is here to unpack how she bought out her agency's founder. Not through PE, not through M&A, but as a trusted insider who built her path from employee to owner. Natalie shares the behind-the-scenes story of how she structured the deal without needing an SBA loan, the mindset shifts she had to make, and how the agency survived both Google's algorithm changes and COVID-19 cratering their top clients. In this episode, we'll discuss: Grooming your #2 to become your successor, or become the one buying. Avoiding mistakes that slow down or kill an internal exit. Using creative financing (HELOCs, owner carry notes, balloon payments) to structure the deal. Knowing when an employee has what it takes to run the agency. Preserving trust and team stability during a leadership transition.

Check out the Agency Valuation Calculator   The overlooked exit strategy: selling your agency to a team member… Natalie started as an employee in a boutique digital firm. When it got acquired by Volume Nine, she climbed the ranks the old-school way: by taking on every problem no one else would. Over time, she ran the company. Then COVID hit. The agency's revenue cratered. Clients disappeared. The founder wanted out. But instead of flipping to a stranger, he turned to Natalie. The "Oh Shit" Moment and the Deal That Followed When the founder came to Natalie with the offer to buy, he already had the groundwork laid. He'd called the bank, scoped out an SBA loan, and gave her a number. Natalie didn't have a pile of cash sitting around, but she did have grit, resourcefulness, and inside knowledge of the business. She didn't take the SBA route. Instead, she pieced together a creative financing stack: A HELOC for the down payment An owner-carry note A balloon payment at the end The company is paying for itself over time. No brokers. No middlemen. Just a fair, fast, founder-to-founder deal. Why This Worked (And Why Most Don't) Natalie had already been: Running the company Exposed to the numbers Made a co-owner years earlier This wasn't a random promotion. It was a trust-built, stress-tested evolution. And it mattered. Because when the deal closed, the culture didn't collapse. The clients stayed. The team believed. What if the best buyer for your agency is already on your team? If you're feeling done, but still care about your agency, selling to a team member might be the cleanest win. Here's how to set it up: Start grooming your #2 now. VP → President → Co-owner → Buyer. Expose them to EBITDA, profitability, client churn…. everything. Stress-test them: give scary responsibilities and see how they show up. Be fair. Don't squeeze every dime. The goal is continuity and peace of mind. Don't wait until you're burned out. Move before it's a fire drill. Agency ownership is a wild ride. If you're looking for a graceful exit that doesn't torch your legacy, this might be it. And if you're the #2? Start acting like the owner today. You never know when the keys will be offered. As Natalie said, "If you care about your team and the agency's legacy, you owe it to yourself to consider your employees as potential buyers. Even if they say no, at least you gave them a shot."

Jenn talks about using a grooming kit on Oscar... and making a bit of a mistake...

Forget what you think you know about this case. This is the deep dive that puts it all together — and what it reveals is a pattern of alleged predatory behavior that spans thirty years, two generations, and at least two suspicious deaths.John-Paul Miller built his reputation as a man of God. He stood at the pulpit every Sunday preaching salvation. But according to court documents, sworn affidavits, police reports, and a federal indictment, the man behind the cross was allegedly running a different kind of operation entirely.His first wife alleges he confessed to sexual misconduct with underage girls in his church. His second wife — Mica Miller — told police he groomed her from the time she was a child. She called for help fourteen times in her final months. She reported tracking devices. Slashed tires. Being afraid for her life. The system told her to wait. Two days after serving him divorce papers, she was dead.Now JP Miller has been federally indicted for cyberstalking and lying to investigators. Prosecutors allege he tracked Mica's every move, posted nude photos of her online, contacted her over fifty times in a single day, and then lied about all of it when the FBI came asking questions. He has pleaded not guilty.But there's more. Two civil lawsuits allege JP and his father sexually abused minors at their churches for decades. And then there's Chris Skinner — the quadriplegic who drowned two weeks after allegedly confronting JP about an affair with his wife. JP married that widow last year. Neither death has resulted in charges against him.This episode connects every thread. The allegations. The documents. The deaths. The man at the center of it all.You're about to understand exactly who John-Paul Miller allegedly is.#MicaMiller #JPMiller #TrueCrimeToday #BreakingNews #PastorExposed #FederalIndictment #JusticeForMica #CoerciveControl #ChrisSkinner #SolidRockChurchJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

You've seen the clips. The bizarre pulpit announcement. The eulogy where he said he tried to raise her from the dead. The protests outside his church. But you haven't heard the full story — until now.This episode goes back to the beginning. To a ten-year-old girl walking into Solid Rock Church and meeting a twenty-five-year-old married pastor who, according to her own police report, would spend years grooming her before making her his second wife. To a first wife who alleges JP confessed to hiring prostitutes and being sexually inappropriate with underage girls in his congregation. To a church that allegedly knew and did nothing. To a system that told Mica Miller — fourteen times — that there wasn't enough to help her.Two days after she served him divorce papers, Mica was dead. Her death was ruled a suicide. JP Miller has not been charged in connection with her death. But the federal government has now indicted him for allegedly cyberstalking her for eighteen months — tracking her every move, posting intimate photos without consent, and harassing her relentlessly until the day she died.And Mica isn't the only death connected to this man. Chris Skinner — a quadriplegic motivational speaker — drowned in a pool two weeks after allegedly confronting JP about an affair with his wife. JP married that woman thirteen months after Mica died. Armed guards protected the ceremony.Two civil lawsuits now allege JP and his father are serial predators who targeted minors for decades. They deny everything.This is the definitive breakdown. Every document. Every allegation. Every failure. The monster hiding behind the pulpit — fully exposed.#MicaMiller #JPMiller #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #SolidRockChurch #JusticeForMica #PastorExposed #CoerciveControl #ChrisSkinner #FederalIndictmentJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by Topo Athletic…today's episode is pure chaos.  If you've listened to any of our Hiking Viking episodes, you already know what I'm talking about. After four "Girl Stuff" episodes, Chaunce figured it was only fair to balance the scales with what we're officially calling the Guy Stuff episode, a panel-style conversation that goes off the rails almost immediately, featuring Jabba and Lt Cookoo Bird. We cover everything from trail grooming strategy (aka pube management), to whether you'd rather have boobs or a vagina for 24 hours, to making Backpacker Radio condoms as trail swag, Chaunce has a beard, and Jabba bites Chaunce's toes.

In this educational reflection episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Brandon revisits Wednesday's survivor story and breaks down the patterns of grooming, manipulation, and coercive control that shaped her experience with an abusive college professor.What began as attention and support slowly evolved into gaslighting, rage, sexual coercion, isolation, and the erosion of self-trust. This follow-up explores how early family boundary violations and people-pleasing conditioned Wednesday to take on responsibility for others' emotions — making fear, obligation, guilt, and shame powerful tools of control.Brandon highlights the key themes from Wednesday's story, including grooming by authority figures, emotional manipulation, self-blame, and the long process of reclaiming boundaries and autonomy.The episode closes with insights focused on healing — learning to trust your instincts, releasing false responsibility, seeking safe support, and breaking cycles of trauma.If you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠click here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or send us an email at narcissistapocalypse@pm.meClick on the title of our blog to read the Emotional Abuse Checklist.Sign up to our Domestic Violence Newsletter  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Hello, hello — and welcome back to Greedy Bitch, the podcast for groomers who are done apologizing for wanting more. I'm your host, River Lee, founder of The Savvy Groomer — and today's conversation might feel a little uncomfortable… …but in the best way. Because we're talking about golden handcuffs. And before you tense up or immediately think, “Oh, this probably isn't about me,” I want you to just stay open for a second. Golden handcuffs are sneaky. They don't show up when you're broke and desperate. They don't show up when your books are empty. They show up when: Your business technically works Your schedule is full Your bills are paid And everyone on the outside thinks you're doing great But inside? You're tired. You're irritated. You feel stuck. And there's this quiet, low-grade resentment that keeps bubbling up. You're not failing. You're not irresponsible. And you're definitely not lazy. You're just realizing that “working” and “working well” are not the same thing. And if that realization makes your stomach drop a little? This episode is for you. Let's define it — plainly. Golden handcuffs are when: Your income looks okay Your schedule is full Your clients are “fine” And you still feel trapped You tell yourself things like: “I can't change anything right now.” “I need the money.” “At least it's stable.” “I'll fix it later.” But here's the truth nobody wants to say out loud: Stability without sustainability is just burnout with better branding. Golden handcuffs are not about being rich. They're about being dependent. Dependent on: Certain clients you're scared to lose Certain price points that barely work Certain chaos you've learned how to survive A version of yourself that's always exhausted but “handling it” And the longer you stay there, the harder it feels to imagine anything different. Because your business doesn't feel optional anymore. It feels like a requirement. An obligation. A responsibility you can't set down. And that's the part that feels heavy. Not the work. The lack of choice. Here's the part nobody likes to admit — and I say this with so much compassion: Sometimes we stay stuck because it's familiar. Not comfortable. Familiar. You know how to survive here. You know how to overwork. You know how to push through. You know how to ignore your body and your needs. And there's a weird safety in that. Because changing means: Risk Discomfort Boundaries Conversations Letting go of clients Raising prices Admitting the current model isn't actually working And groomers? We are exceptionally good at endurance. Hard work has always been the solution. Until it isn't. Golden handcuffs thrive on beliefs like: “If I just work harder, it'll eventually feel better.” “Once I hit this number, I'll slow down.” “I just need to get through this season.” But here's the uncomfortable truth: Hard work fixes under-earning. It does not fix broken systems. And the thing about golden handcuffs? They don't feel urgent. You're not drowning. You're just… slowly suffocating. And that's harder to respond to. Let's talk money — specifically. Because golden handcuffs are usually built quietly, over time. They're built on: Underpricing “just for now” Overbooking to make up the difference Tips filling the gap instead of pricing No clear budgeting system No long-term plan for you, not just the business You might be thinking: “I can't afford to raise prices.” “I can't afford to slow down.” “I can't afford to say no.” But what you really can't afford… …is staying here forever. Because the cost of golden handcuffs isn't just financial. It's: Your body breaking down Your nervous system living in constant alert Your relationships getting whatever energy is left Your creativity disappearing Your future options shrinking When your income depends on constant output, you haven't built freedom. You've built a cage. A shiny one. A respectable one. A socially acceptable one. But it's still a cage. Here's the good news — and please hear this: Breaking golden handcuffs does not mean: Quitting tomorrow Burning bridges Starting over from scratch Blowing up your life Freedom doesn't come from chaos. It comes from intention. Breaking golden handcuffs starts with choice. Choice looks like: Choosing to raise prices strategically, not emotionally Choosing systems over survival Choosing planning over panic Choosing long-term stability over short-term comfort Sometimes it means: Learning how to manage money differently Creating boundaries that protect your energy Building buffers instead of white-knuckling Adding a new skillset or income stream Getting support instead of doing everything alone And no — none of this happens overnight. But every small, intentional decision loosens the grip. You don't take the handcuffs off all at once. You unlock them. One click at a time. As we wrap up, I want you to sit with this question — honestly: If nothing changed this year… would you be okay with that? Same schedule. Same income. Same stress. Same pace. If the answer is no? That's not greed. That's self-respect. New Year, New Money isn't about hustling harder. It's about building a business that supports your life — not traps you inside it. Golden handcuffs only work if you keep wearing them. And you are allowed to take them off. If today's episode hit close to home, take a breath. You're not behind. You're not broken. And you're not ungrateful for wanting more. You're just noticing that the way you're working right now isn't sustainable — even if the money looks “fine” on paper. And that awareness? That's the first step to freedom. January's New Year, New Money theme is about making intentional money decisions — not reacting, not white-knuckling, and not staying stuck because “at least it works.” If you're realizing you might be wearing golden handcuffs, here are a few next steps: If pricing is what's keeping you trapped, the Price Increase Masterclass walks you through how to raise prices confidently and strategically — without panic or guilt. You can find it at savvygroomer.com/pimc If your income feels chaotic or inconsistent, Personal Finance on a Leash helps you build money systems that actually support your life. You can find it at savvygroomer.com/enroll And if you need clarity around where your time and money are really going, the Paws & Prioritize Planner gives you simple visibility without overwhelm. You can find it at savvygroomer.com/planner Next week, pay attention to how your income feels — not just what the numbers say. Because New Year, New Money isn't about hustling harder. It's about building a business that gives you options. Stay savvy. Stay greedy. And never apologize for wanting more.

In this episode of Perfect Prey, I'm joined by Andrew Carpenter, a solicitor and partner at Webster Lawyers in Australia, widely known for his work holding child sexual abuse perpetrators accountable and advocating for systemic reform.Andrew and I have a frank, uncomfortable, and deeply necessary conversation about child sexual abuse, grooming, coercive control, and the institutional failures that continue to endanger children. We explore how child predators use the same grooming tactics as coercive controllers, how technology and AI have dramatically increased access to abuse material, and why legal systems—including family courts—so often fail to protect children and the parents trying to keep them safe.This episode centers the reality that child sexual abuse is not rare, not accidental, and not a crime of opportunity—it is intentional, patterned, and enabled by silence, disbelief, and systemic blind spots.What we coverHow child sexual abuse perpetrators groom children, families, and institutionsWhy all child predators use coercive control and relational grooming tacticsThe disturbing accessibility of child abuse material onlineHow technology, AI, and social media are being weaponized against childrenWhy most abuse occurs within trusted relationships and family systemsThe failures of criminal courts and family courts to protect child victimsWhy lack of physical evidence does not mean abuse did not occurWarning signs, behavioral red flags, and changes parents should not ignoreHow shame, fear, and silence protect perpetrators—not childrenWhat meaningful prevention, accountability, and reform must addressWhy listenIf you are a survivor, protective parent, clinician, attorney, educator, or advocate, this episode provides critical insight into how child sexual abuse actually operates—and why so many children are disbelieved, retraumatized, or returned to unsafe environments. Andrew's work exposes how deeply embedded these harms are within systems that claim to protect children, and why uncomfortable conversations are essential to change.Guest bio (short)Andrew Carpenter is a solicitor and partner at Webster Lawyers in Australia, specializing in child sexual abuse litigation and survivor advocacy. He is widely recognized for challenging institutional failures, advocating for legal reform, and amplifying survivor voices in cases where children have been silenced or ignored. His work focuses on accountability, deterrence, and systemic change to better protect children.Connect with Andrew CarpenterFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/andrewcarpentersolicitorWebsters Lawyers:https://websterslawyers.com.au/lawyers/andrew-carpenterInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/andrewcarpentersolicitor?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-carpenter-041456123/Connect with Dr. ChristineProtective Parenting Program:https://www.coercivecontrolconsulting.com/services/for-parents/Official site:https://www.coercivecontrolconsulting.com/YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@DrCocchiola-coercivecontrol/videosTikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.c_coercivecontrolIf this episode landed for you, please share it with someone who needs to hear it, subscribe for more trauma-informed conversations, and consider leaving a review- it helps other survivors and protective parents find validation and safety.-Dr. Christine Cocchiola & guest Andrew Carpenter

In this episode of the cityCURRENT Show, Andrew Bartolotta sits down with Denise McElhaney, owner of Denise's Happy Hounds and founder of the Happy Hounds Pet Pantry. Denise shares how her love for dogs and her faith led her to create a grooming experience centered on comfort, trust, and care—and how that mission expanded into a community resource helping keep pets out of shelters. We explore the inspiration behind the Pet Pantry, how it operates as a 24/7 blessing box, and the role fundraisers, sponsors, and volunteers play in sustaining the mission. This conversation is a powerful reminder of how small businesses can become lifelines for their communities—and how compassion can create lasting impact for pets and the people who love them. Learn more: https://www.deniseshappyhounds.com/

Ask Rachel anythingWhile counseling sex offenders, Anna Sonoda, LCSW learned firsthand that grooming, the prelude to child sexual abuse, is intentional, gradual, and observable. Her message to us is, we're not bad parents, we just have a skills gap and she wants to fill it. I grew up in an era of stranger danger, but the truth is the vast majority of abuse happens inside our homes, online and offline, with people our kids know. So how can we spot the signs that a predator is moving in on us and our kids? Anna says there are clear stages of grooming that, once we know about them, we can intercept. She introduces the "4F formula" for grooming: flattery, favoritism, forbidden fruits, and fear, and stresses the importance of recognizing grooming's subtle signs. Anna advises parents to set clear device usage rules, use parental controls, and maintain open communication with their children. She also advocates for delaying social media access until age 16 and emphasizes the role of parents in curating their children's online and offline environments.In this episode we cover:What Is Grooming?

Grooming in the Lifestyle | Episode 91In this episode of The Swing Nation Podcast, the top-rated podcast about non-monogamy and swinging, Dan and Lacy are back with another Tuesday Talks listener question—this time tackling a topic a lot of people wonder about but don't always ask out loud: body hair in the lifestyle.This week's text comes from The Sexy Scientists, who are gearing up for their first lifestyle takeover and feeling curious (and maybe a little anxious) after hearing other podcasts talk about men getting Brazilian waxes. While he's already well-trimmed, he wants to know what's actually “normal” when it comes to male body hair in the lifestyle. Dan shares how he keeps things manscaped, and Lacy weighs in on her personal preferences.Dan and Lacy dive into how grooming trends have evolved, why there's been a noticeable resurgence of hair lately, and how preferences vary wildly from person to person. The one thing that never goes out of style? Good hygiene. Whether you're smooth, trimmed, or natural, this episode breaks down how confidence, cleanliness, and communication matter far more than following any one trend.Get Tickets to Electric Pleasures- The Swing Nation - Main Website Quick Navigation Website: -- (Find all our social media links & more!)- Swinger Society - Our Website to meet, connect & events Swinger Society Discord Our Facebook Group- Swinger Websites -Kasadie 90 day free trialUsername: TheSwingNation SDC 14 day free trial Username: TheSwingNation** Use code 36313 for 14 days free! ** SLSUsername: NorthernGuynSouthernGirl- Merch & More -Order Your Merch Here!- Lacy's Fun Links -VIP OnlyFansPREMIUM OnlyFans-- THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS --Wisp : Making sexual healthcare inclusive, cost-effective, and accessible—for everyoneUse Code SWING at checkout for 15% off your oder!Shameless Care: ED Medication and at home STD testingUse Code TSN at checkout for $30 off your order!Promescent® Make Love Longer, It's Time for Great SexUse Code SwingNation for 5% off!Sling it Bikinis:  adjustable one-size styles, thoughtfully crafted to flatter every body type.Support the show- Thank you for the support! -

STARMER VS MUSK – TODAY IT'S X, TOMORROW IT'S YOUR FREE SPEECH #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV #FreeSpeech #Starmer #StarmerVsMusk #ElonMusk #Censorship #DonaldTrump #Trump #Iran #IranProtests #UKPolitics #IndependentMedia #CultureWar #YouTubeLive Keir Starmer wants to ban X — today it's social media, tomorrow it's your free speech. This is not about safety. It's about power, censorship, and silencing criticism. Not satisfied with cancelling elections, locking people up for "hurty words" and enforcing two-tier policing of political protest, Keir Starmer now wants to silence the internet itself by banning X. The excuse? Deep-fake nude images — which I utterly condemn. But let's stop pretending. This has nothing to do with protecting women and everything to do with protecting Starmer. This is about power. This is about control. This is about shutting you up. The idea that a government-appointed censor like OFCOM should police what adults say, think, read and watch online must be resisted. We don't even need OFCOM for broadcasting — we all have an off button. Don't like it? Don't watch it. What's next — banning football? Because every ground in the country now rings out with "Starmer is a wanker", doesn't it? Instead of censoring criticism, how about dealing with the real threats: Grooming gangs still waiting for a full public inquiry Rapists being allowed into the Met Police Birmingham officers falsifying evidence to blame Jews instead of Muslims BBC bias — including falsified edits of Trump speeches Without social media: The Iran protests would be invisible The grooming gang scandal would have died quietly Police corruption would never see daylight The truth? Starmer and the mainstream media hate Musk because their grip is slipping. This is a revolution — and they can't control it.  #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV #Live #FreeSpeech #Starmer #StarmerVsMusk #ElonMusk #X #Censorship #UKPolitics #OFCOM #CancelCulture #TwoTierPolicing #BBCBias #GroomingGangs #PoliceCorruption #DonaldTrump #Trump #Iran #IranProtests #CultureWar #MediaLies #IndependentMedia #YouTubeLive Jon Gaunt, Jon Gaunt TV, live, free speech, Keir Starmer, Starmer vs Musk, Elon Musk, X, censorship, UK politics, OFCOM, cancel culture, two tier policing, BBC bias, grooming gangs, police corruption, Donald Trump, Trump, Iran, Iran protests, culture war, media lies, independent media, YouTube live This is political blogging and hard-hitting social commentary from Triple Sony Gold Award-winning talk radio legend, Jon Gaunt — former host on BBC, Talk Radio, and Sky News.

Are there rules that limit contact between adult officers and minors outside of scheduled events?Insist on transparency. Reputable programs should have clear, written guidelines about communication, supervision, and conduct. Ask to see them.Monitor ride-alongs. Know who your child is riding with, how long they're gone, and what the reporting procedures are.Watch the tech. Officers or advisors should never be Snapchatting, DMing, or texting minors privately. Monitor app usage and discuss healthy boundaries.Get involved. Show up to meetings. Get to know the adults running the program. Your presence as a parent or guardian helps make the space safer for everyone.Keep communication open. Let your child know they can talk to you about anything -- especially if something makes them uncomfortable. Make it clear that they won't be in trouble for speaking up.Getting Help:If you or someone you know has experienced abuse in a Police Explorer or similar youth program, here's what to do:Believe them. If a child or teen discloses abuse, believe what they say. Stay calm, listen, and affirm that it's not their fault. Praise them for coming forward.Report it. If the child is in danger, call 911. Otherwise, contact your local police, sheriff's department, or state child protection agency. If you're concerned local police might have a conflict of interest, contact your state police, state attorney general, or the FBI.Document/preserve everything. Save messages, screenshots, call logs — anything that could help support the report.Seek emotional support: Abuse by a trusted adult is incredibly disorienting. You and/or your child deserve compassionate care from someone trained in trauma -- like a therapist, school counselor, or crisis line advocate.Connect with survivor resources. Many organizations offer specialized support for young people.Consult legal counsel: Some survivors explore civil legal action against individuals or institutions. An attorney familiar with institutional abuse cases can help assess your options.Red Flags: Signs of Grooming or Abuse in Explorer Programs:Abuse by authority figures often begins with grooming -- a gradual, often-subtle process that builds trust before violating it. Here are common warning signs in youth law enforcement programs:“Special” treatment. One teen is singled out for attention, gifts, mentorship, or exclusive opportunities not given to others.Excessive one-on-one contact. Repeated private ride-alongs, late-night messages, or invitations to hang out off-duty.Private communication. The adult uses personal texting apps, Snapchat, Instagram DMs, or other unmonitored channels to talk to a minor.Overstepping/blurring boundaries. Inappropriate compliments, jokes about relationships, or sharing personal details not appropriate for a mentor-mentee dynamic.Isolation. The adult discourages the teen from talking to others about their relationship or makes the teen feel responsible for their secrecy.Gaslighting or guilt. The adult blames the teen for misunderstandings, manipulates their emotions, or makes them feel they'll “ruin someone's life” if they speak out.Physical contact. Touch that's unnecessary, prolonged, or makes the teen uncomfortable -- even if it's framed as casual or accidental. You can learn more about The Good segment and even submit a story of your own by visiting The Good page on our website! Source materials for this episode cannot be listed here due to character limitations.
