Joining us tonight on CKCB is Todd, of the Grinding True Crime Podcast. We're covering the Word Of Life Christian Church cult, led by Jerry and then Tiffanie Irwin. It was located in Chadwicks NY, and it was a particularly nasty cult, with all the trappings of one of the craziest. And it escalated as time went on, gradually getting worse and worse, until things exploded in 2015 with the brutal and torturous death of 19 year old Lucas Leonard, at the hands of the cult leader, both his parents, and half sister.

Our May pick for The Morbidly Curious Book Club -- "Without a Prayer" by Susan Ashline Join the Morbidly Curious Book Club Today: themorbidlycuriousbookclub.com Teenager Lucas Leonard made shocking admissions in front of the altar—he'd practiced witchcraft and conspired to murder his parents, among other horrific crimes. The confessions earned him a brutal beating by a gang of angry church members, including his parents and sister. Lucas arrived at the hospital dead, awakening the sleepy community of Chadwicks, New York, to the horror that had been lurking next door. Nine members of Lucas' church (and a good amount of them family) would eventually find themselves facing murder-related charges. But how did they get to that point? And what made Lucas confess? The full story has never been told—until now. Emmy-nominated journalist Susan Ashline delves deep into the Leonard family history, the darkness within the Word of Life Christian Church, and what led Lucas, his family, and his community to that fateful night. Susan Ashline is the author of the nationally acclaimed true crime book Without a Prayer: The Death of Lucas Leonard and How One Church Became a Cult. She is an Emmy-nominated journalist whose career spans more than twenty-five years.

The residents of tiny Chadwicks, New York, were enjoying a few pleasantly warm days just before Halloween in 2015. Lots of decorations were on display around the small town, but not at the red brick building that housed the Word of Life Christian Church. But that wasn't unusual since Halloween isn't really a Christian holiday. What was unusual was how unfriendly the church could be. It didn't welcome outsiders at all. Some neighbors whispered that it was a cult, citing the locked gates, the guard dogs, and the strange chanting they often heard as proof of their suspicions. They didn't really know what went on inside. If they had, maybe Lucas Leonard would still be alive.
