Will a new bystander campaign by the police get more people to speak up for victims for molest and voyeurism? In this episode of The Usual Place, I chat with Ms Lim Shoon Yin, the executive director of Singapore women’s rights group Aware, about what holds bystanders back and what they can do. Also on the podcast is Dr Julia Lam, a forensic psychologist, who assesses people who have committed offences like sexual crimes. She studies impulse control disorder and behavioural addiction, among other areas. She explains why perpetrators cross the line and act on urges, despite knowing it’s a crime.

A coercive control law can be groundbreaking and still leave survivors asking, “Why doesn't life feel safer?”David and Ruth are joined by Dr. Marsha Scott, CEO of Scottish Women's Aid, to talk about Scotland's hard-won reforms and the uncomfortable truth behind them: Legal change is only the beginning, and implementation is where domestic abuse reform succeeds or fails. They dig into what makes Scotland's coercive control framework so influential, including its course of conduct focus and why impact matters more than trying to read a perpetrator's “intent.” Dr. Scott shares what the law has changed in public understanding and what has not changed yet in courts, sentencing, and survivor trust. Ruth, David, and Dr. Scott also get practical about what closes the implementation gap: infrastructure, better evidence, skilled supervision, and real accountability when systems keep defaulting to old habits. Then they turn to family court, child protection, and child contact decision-making, where children's rights can get lost and where poor documentation can make the perpetrator disappear while the survivor is judged through a deficit lens. They talk about reports, mental health models, and what it takes to pivot practice toward perpetrator patterns as parenting behaviours with measurable harm to kids. If you care about coercive control, children's safety, and systems change that actually sticks, hit subscribe, share the episode with a colleague, and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform.Send us Fan Mail Now available!

Report from John Cooke

Perpetrators of child sexual abuse tell victims to keep the secret. And many times victims feel the abuse is their fault. The pain and scars of childhood sexual abuse last long into your adult years, but many hang onto that secret. Now, a new documentary film has been produced called Innocent Child: Healing for Survivors of Childhood Sexual Abuse. Steve Siler and Becky Nordquist join us to talk about it on Chris Fabry Live.

A new study is looking at how hospitals can play an important role in gun violence prevention. HCMC and The Violence Prevention Project teamed up and compared hospital data with homicide data in Minneapolis. They found from 2013 to 2022, that 1 in 50 people admitted to HCMC with a violent trauma injury, ended up later involved in a homicide, as a victim or perpetrator. Joining Minnesota Now host Nina Moini to dig into the data is two authors of the study. Jillian Peterson is with the executive director of The Violence Prevention Project and Dr. Derek Lumbard is a trauma surgeon at HCMC.

If your picture of domestic abuse is still “bigger person equals perpetrator,” that assumption can derail safety planning in minutes, especially in same-sex relationships and LGBTQ families. In this episode, Ruth and David sit down with Dr. James Rowlands, sociologist and founder of the Dyn Project, to explore what actually helps practitioners identify abuse more accurately: tracking patterns of coercive control, listening for fear and entrapment, and documenting real behaviours instead of relying on identity-based assumptions.Ruth, David, and Dr. Rowlands unpack the tension many professionals feel between maintaining a gender-based violence lens, recognising gendered double standards, and being inclusive of queer survivors and male victims. While “gender-neutral” approaches can sound fair, they can also flatten power dynamics, erase social context, and obscure the role gender norms play in abusive relationships.Together, they examine the “public story” that often steers professionals toward proxies like size, presentation, or stereotypes instead of evidence-based assessment. They also discuss how abuse tactics can look different in LGBTQ relationships, where outing, community stigma, and questions around “who counts as queer” can become tools of coercion and control.The conversation gets practical, too. David, Ruth, and Dr. Rowlands explore why LGBTQ survivors are often missed in MARAC referrals, how generic risk checklists fail without LGBTQ-specific prompts, and what domestic homicide and death reviews can get wrong when queerness is treated as the explanation rather than focusing on perpetrator behaviour and systemic failures.They close with concrete questions practitioners can ask to build trust with survivors, along with guidance for navigating biased or unsafe professional responses.Subscribe, share this with a colleague or friend, and leave a review so more people can find these tools.

Can you think of a moment that turned your life into ‘before’ and ‘after’? For Reuben Williams, that moment was not his sexual assault, rather, the decision he made in the aftermath to pursue justice.

Systems don't just “break” on their own. They do what they were designed to do, and too often that means extracting money, labor, and dignity while claiming to keep us safe. In this episode, David and Ruth sit down with Trisha McOrmond, a Red River Métis systems thinker, to explore what it means to navigate belonging when it's been fractured by family separation, colonisation, and institutions. They talk about the tension of feeling responsible to advocate, serve, and tell the truth without speaking for an entire community. They dig into why speaking from “I” and lived experience isn't selfish, it's accountable, and how the “royal we” can obscure harm in leadership, training, and professional spaces.Trisha shares what decolonising thinking means to her: shifting from a scarcity worldview—where you “arrive here wanting” and must prove your worth—to a relational one, where you “arrive here wanted,” and community organises around care, children, elders, and basic needs. That shift reshapes how we understand capitalism, business as service, and the subtle ways institutions protect capital, property, and liability over people.They also connect these ideas to domestic violence and child welfare systems. David, Ruth, and Trisha explore how deficit-based frameworks get weaponised against victims and targeted communities, how DARVO shows up at scale, and why asking “what will make this better?” can sometimes open doors that “what will make you safer?” closes.If you care about systems change, targeted communities, First Nations perspectives, institutional trust, and building safety through relationships, this conversation is for you.Subscribe, share this with someone doing hard systems work, and leave a review so more people can find the show.Send us Fan Mail Now available!

Thirty-two years after the genocide in Rwanda, the country is undetaking its most sensitive task yet: reintegrating the last remaining perpetrators into the very heart of the lands where they once committed murder. Those walking out of prison today are often those who have served their full 30-year sentences. The challenge is daunting: how can these men and women be transformed into productive citizens within a society that has changed so radically? Our correspondent Aurore Bayoud reports, with Tom Canetti.

Two Duggar brothers are facing criminal charges. One is in federal prison. Their father has faced no legal consequences. The organization that produced this family is still running. And a 14-year-old girl is in the middle of an active criminal investigation involving one of the most recognized families in reality television history.In this complete three-part series from Hidden Killers and True Crime Today, hosts Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke sit down with psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to examine every dimension of the Duggar story that the crime reports don't cover. Scott is a thirty-year licensed clinician specializing in trauma recovery, forensic psychology, and the psychology of violent behavior — and a survivor of fundamentalist religious upbringing herself.Part 1 covers the system. IBLP's doctrine, control mechanisms, and what they were designed to produce — examined by someone who lived inside a system like it and has spent thirty years helping people recover from them.Part 2 covers the men. Josh, Joseph, and Jim Bob Duggar through a forensic clinical lens. What do their patterns reveal? What does the research say about offenders who receive faith-based handling instead of clinical treatment? What keeps the women in their lives inside a world that has produced these outcomes?Part 3 covers the survivors. What recovery actually takes. What the people most affected by this week's events need right now. And what hundreds of thousands of former IBLP members — who have been saying this for years — need from this moment.Three parts.

The most useful conference debriefs aren't about highlights, they're about what shifts in you when you listen closely. From the Sydney coast, we wrap up a three-and-a-half-week Asia-Pacific tour and talk through the moments that changed the temperature in the room at our Coercive Control and Children's Conference. We start with gratitude, acknowledgement of unceded Aboriginal land, and the reality that building safer systems means showing up with humility, not just expertise.One of the biggest breakthroughs we share is our commitment to localized training and culturally responsive practice. We premiered a new Australia-based training film designed to teach coercive control as a pattern over time, centered in a perinatal scenario that follows a family before and after a child is born. With Australian actors, filmmakers, consultation from cultural experts, and survivor input, the film is built to help professionals recognize subtle tactics, see cumulative harm, and respond in ways that strengthen child safety and survivor safety rather than repeating harmful system habits.We also get into the harder conversations that practitioners can't avoid: men's health, masculinity, and accountability. We talk about why supporting men and boys can't come at the cost of women and children, and why we have to operationalize that promise instead of offering lip service. In the Australian context, we connect family violence practice with the impacts of colonization, racism, intergenerational trauma, and family separation, while staying clear that healing requires stopping abusive behavior. Along the way, we reflect on survivor voices, workforce wellbeing, and the need for non-extractive organizational cultures.Finally, we dig into the practical lever that can change outcomes in family law: pattern-based documentation. We share why judicial leaders describe this kind of documentation as “gold,” and how the Safety Nexus tool supports workers with coaching, mapping, and better notes when stakes are life-or-death. If you care about coercive control, domestic violence response, child protection, and safer systems, this conversation gives you language you can use tomorrow.

Climate change and armed conflict increasingly intersect in humanitarian settings. While the sector is now alert to climate-related risks – particularly in disaster response, resilience programming, and displacement governance – the ways these risks are interpreted and operationalized vary across institutional mandates and operational contexts. In protection practice within conflict-affected settings, climate impacts are still often framed primarily as “conflict multipliers” rather than direct drivers of civilian harm. This narrow lens risks overlooking the very insecurities communities experience most acutely: displacement, restricted movement, isolation, and livelihood collapse. In this post, researcher and former ICRC delegate Lina Aburas argues that our current conflict-centered analysis has a dangerous blind spot. Drawing on her experience in northeast Nigeria, she explores how communities define their own insecurity amid climate and conflict pressures. Practitioner and community perspectives reveal how climate-related hazards reshape mobility, access to livelihoods and assistance, and exposure to protection risks in ways not fully captured by prevailing conflict-centered analyses. Centering these lived experiences reveals that adapting humanitarian action isn't about mission creep or expanding mandates; it's about fundamentally shifting how we interpret and prioritize the risks already in front of us.

One of the most salacious and storied methods of KGB spycraft during the Cold War was the honey trap. Agents would get an informant to seduce a target, usually a Westerner deemed important. Then use that encounter as blackmail. We're all aware of this thanks to movies and television. What we know nothing about are same-sex honey traps. The KGB's use of homosexual men to seduce other men, whether said men were gay or not. Officials, academics, businessmen and other power positions were targets. How do we know about these operations? Well, because of the intrepid research of historian Irina Roldugina. Roldugina got access to KGB files related to same-sex operations and found more information in, of all things, declassified US government documents related to the Kennedy Assassination. How did these operations work? Who did the KGB tap for same-sex seduction? What do these documents tell us? And what did the KGB think of homosexuality in general? The Eurasian Knot spoke to Irina about her recent article, “The Cold War and the Soviet KGB's Same-Sex Entrapment Operations in the 1950s and 1960s: The Perpetrator in Focus” published in the Fall 2025 issue of Journal of Cold War Studies. Guest:Irina Roldugina is a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow in the School of Modern Languages at the University of Bristol. She's the author of several articles on queer history in the Soviet Union. Her most recent is “The Cold War and the Soviet KGB's Same-Sex Entrapment Operations in the 1950s and 1960s: The Perpetrator in Focus” published in the Fall 2025 issue of Journal of Cold War Studies.

Domestic abuse gets dangerously easy to miss when our systems can only imagine one story about who victims are and what abuse looks like. We sit down with Luke Martin, a UK-based domestic abuse trainer, consultant, and independent victim advocate, to talk about the people most likely to be misunderstood in plain sight: LGBTQ+ survivors, including those in same-sex relationships, who face bias and system failures when seeking assistance for intimate partner violence.We dig into why an incident-based approach can flatten the reality of coercive control, especially when LGBTQ+ survivors fear the very systems they're told to rely on—for good reason. Luke connects the dots between familial abuse, child maltreatment, conversion practices, homelessness, and the long shadow those experiences cast over adult relationships. We also talk about isolation in queer communities, chosen family, shared friend groups, and the real-world barriers to leaving when leaving means losing identity, housing, or every safe connection you have.Along the way, we challenge gender stereotypes that lead professionals to arrest the “more masculine” partner, ignore violence in lesbian relationships, or assume men cannot be afraid. We explore consent, kink, and chemsex risks, and we offer practical ways to ask better questions: how someone describes their gender, relationship, and sexuality and how to keep that door open over time without pressure.If you care about domestic abuse–informed, trauma-informed practice, domestic violence services, survivor-centred safety planning, and LGBTQ-inclusive responses, listen through and share it with a colleague.Subscribe, leave a review, and tell us: What is the biggest change you want to see in domestic abuse systems?Send a text Now available!

Artificial intelligence is already in social work and child protection, and its use is deepening. The question is: How safe, effective, and equitable is it? In this episode, David and Ruth talk with Dr. LaSharia Turner and Dr. Helen Fischle from Alabama A&M University about what ethical, human-centered, AI-driven tech should look like in social work education and frontline practice.As agencies face workforce shortages, austerity, high caseloads, and increasing complexity, technology is being introduced as a solution. But can AI actually support domestic violence–informed practice when child safety is on the line? Or does it risk automating bias, victim-blaming, erasing survivor context, and shifting responsibility away from systems and perpetrators as parents?We explore:What “human-centered” AI really means in child welfareThe risks of predictive tools and automationWhy social workers must have a seat at the technology tableHow to prevent tech from increasing survivor and worker burdenThe future of ethical innovation in high-stakes systemsIf you work in child protection, domestic violence services, family courts, behavioral health, or policy, this conversation is for you.Technology should enhance professional judgment—not replace it.Send a text Now available!

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!

In this episode I'll be sharing a few times that people went about their own lives only to find out they weren't truly alone. Phrogging (pronounced "frogging") is the act of secretly living in another person's home without their knowledge or permission. Perpetrators, known as "phrogs," often hide in unused spaces like attics, basements, or crawlspaces for extended periods. This illegal activity,, which is often associated with finding free housing, involves navigating an occupied home while remaining undetectedTimestampsIntro : (00:00)Drink Intermission : (13:02) The Knocking : (14:04) Outro : (56:14)BUY MERCHSUBMIT YOUR SCARY STORYFOLLOW MEhttps://www.boozeandboos.net/ Join My Discord! https://discord.gg/sMUtpDwJADStories Found & Edited By : Zack Graham SUPPORT HIM & BUY HIS BOOKS :) Mogollon Monsters - https://a.co/d/d2BHQCPGhosts of Gravsmith - https://a.co/d/ahThYHA ►[ Intro & Background Ambience] - Niko & https://www.youtube.com/@UC-dIpawoAP9T9ccC0tgb-xw ►[《 Background Music

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!

What happens inside a mind that allegedly can't let go for eight years?Michael McKee and Monique Tepe were married for two years on paper but lived together for roughly seven months before she fled. Family members describe emotional abuse and death threats during those brief months together. Eight years later, prosecutors allege McKee drove six hours to Columbus, entered the Tepe home without forced entry, and shot Monique and her husband Spencer to death while their children slept nearby.In this episode — Part 1 of our three-part interview series — psychotherapist Shavaun Scott breaks down the psychology of the alleged obsessive ex-partner. With over thirty years of experience working with perpetrators and victims of violence, and as the author of "The Minds of Mass Killers," Shavaun brings clinical expertise to the questions this case raises.Why does someone allegedly nurse a grievance for nearly a decade over a relationship that lasted less than a year? How does a successful surgeon allegedly compartmentalize obsession while maintaining a high-functioning career? What role does the victim's visible happiness — a new marriage, children, a thriving life — play in allegedly triggering violence? And what's the internal narrative that allegedly justifies years of fixation?This is the psychology behind the headlines.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #WoundCollector #ShavaunScott #TrueCrime #DomesticViolence #HiddenKillers #PerpPsychology #ColumbusJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

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!

We are starting our 7th season and asking the question: "What if love wasn't the soft side of this work, but the method that makes healing possible?"We chat again with Nneka MacGregor—co-founder and executive director of WomenatthecentrE, survivor, advocate, and visionary—to explore how love, joy, gratitude, and community connection can transform responses to gender-based violence. Instead of centering punishment that rarely repairs harm or teaches nurturing protective behavior, we examine a path where boundaries are love, accountability restores dignity, and systems are redesigned to reduce violence at its roots.Nneka shares the personal story of surviving an attempted femicide and the vow that shaped her leadership: to live with gratitude, choose joy, and build a world where women and children are safer. From there, we dig into transformative justice—what it is, how it works, and why carceral reflexes often disconnect people from community, dull empathy, and compound and reproduce harm. You'll hear a clear case for accountability that tells the truth, makes repair, and supports real change without throwing people away.Nneka also introduce three bold frameworks that flip misogyny and misogynoir on their heads: amourgyny (love of women, girls, trans, and gender-diverse people), amourgynoir (centering love for Black women, girls, and gender-diverse folks), and amourgenous (centering love for Indigenous women, girls, and two-spirit people). These ideas are already influencing policy in Canada, offering a practical language for institutions to move beyond retribution into more behaviorally grounded and care-centered design. Along the way, we redefine power as something you hold upright and share—strong, embodied, and unentangled from coercion, control, and violence.If you're a practitioner, policymaker, survivor, or ally, this episode offers a grounded blueprint: lead with love, pair it with firm boundaries, build accountability that repairs, and design systems that center those most harmed.

Mist, wind, the volcanic island of São Miguel, and a hard look at the words and jargon that decide families' futures. We begin in the Azores, Ruth's ancestral home, where arguments for European westward expansion took shape after Bartolomé de Las Casas reported the finding of two “dead” "Amerindian" bodies—and where mainland-imposed poverty, illiteracy, and family separation set conditions that still shape domestic violence today. From that grounding, we pull apart a label that quietly drives child removals, court outcomes, and professional blind spots: “denial.” Across child protection and domestic violence documentation, the phrase “mother is in denial of the impact of domestic violence” appears with alarming regularity—automatically shifting scrutiny onto women in records that determine custody and liberty, while the person causing harm fades from view. The result is compounded harm at both personal and system levels.We trace how this term traveled from early psychoanalysis—where women's reports of sexual violence were recast as inner conflict or sexual turmoil—into today's case notes and court filings. Over time, denial and hysteria morphed into failure to protect and parental alienation, redirecting attention from perpetrators' patterns of violence to mothers' supposed deficits in “controlling” that violence or responding to it. Instead of centering victims' reactions to harm, we argue for real behavioral evidence: name who did what, to whom, with what impact, and what has been tried with the person causing harm. This shift is not cosmetic—yet it changes documentation, supervision, and safety planning, and it guards against wrongful liberty removals and harmful system collusion with perpetrators.You'll hear practical questions that move practice quickly: What did she do or say that led you to that conclusion? What is your specific safety concern about that behavior? These prompts redirect focus from a survivor's inner world to the perpetrator's actions, choices, and behaviors—opening the door to mapping risk to children, cataloging incidents, and designing interventions that actually reduce danger. We also widen the lens to the ecosystem around survivors—family pressure, faith norms, small-island logistics, and economic traps—that make “just leave” dangerous or impossible for many.The invitation is clear: try a week—or a month—without the word denial. Replace labels with behavioral pattern facts. Keep the person causing harm at the center of risk and response.If this resonates, subscribe, share with a colleague, and leave a review telling us which label you're dropping next.

 THE YELLOW CREEK MASSACRE AND THE TRUE PERPETRATORS Colleague Robert G. Parkinson. This segment details the chaotic environment following the British withdrawal from Fort Pitt, which created a power vacuum and a border war between Pennsylvania and Virginia. Amidst this tension, the Yellow Creek massacre occurred on April 30, 1774, where settlers lured Logan's family—including his mother, brother, and sister—into a tavern and murdered them. Parkinson confirms that Michael Cresap was not present during the slaughter; he had retreated to Catfish Campdays earlier. The actual perpetrators were men like Daniel Greathouse, not the Cresaps, though Logan remained unaware of this. NUMBER 3

Last week, KALW attended the 2025 San Francisco Press Club awards… and left with five wins! This next story was reported back in February, and took home an award for ‘Best Reporting'. When it first aired, organizers in California had been working for months to spread the word about this helpline/ a helpline for perpetrators of domestic and intimate partner violence. You heard that right. A helpline for perpetrators, not victims. It's an unusual approach to a serious problem: Rates of domestic violence in the U.S. are high, and they got even worse during the pandemic. The helpline – A Call for Change – promises anonymity to its callers. And their goal is to provide a non-carceral approach to preventing domestic and intimate partner violence. 

In this final episode, we learn where the killers are today (spoiler: they're all still in prison and likely always will be), the two laws passed in Channon and Chris's names that protect future victims, the families' ongoing fight to ensure they're never forgotten, a little about the families and some personal struggles they've faced, the racial controversy that surrounded the case, and more.Resources and Support For Survivors of Sexual Violence:RAINN National Sexual Assault Hotline: 1-800-656-HOPE (4673)RAINN Online Chat: online.rainn.orgFor Crime Victims and Families:National Center for Victims of Crime: 1-855-4-VICTIM (1-855-484-2846)Parents of Murdered Children: www.pomc.orgFor Mental Health Support:National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 988Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741741SAMHSA National Helpline: 1-800-662-4357IN LOVING MEMORYChannon Gail Christian April 29, 1985 - January 9, 2007 Beloved daughter, friend, student, golfer, and beautiful soul.Hugh Christopher Newsom Jr. September 21, 1983 - January 7, 2007 Beloved son, carpenter, baseball player, and kind heart.They were loved.

It's Wednesday, November 19th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Christians faced 2,211 hate crimes in Europe last year Christians and churches are facing increased attacks in Europe. The Observatory on Intolerance and Discrimination Against Christians in Europe released their latest report on Monday.  Christians faced 2,211 hate crimes across the continent last year. The number is slightly down from 2023, but last year saw a rise in violent crimes like physical attacks and arson.  The countries with highest number of anti-Christian incidents were France, the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain, and Austria. 189 university evangelists gathered in Spain The Fellowship of Evangelists in the Universities of Europe held their 17th annual meeting in Spain recently. Evangelical Focus reports 189 university evangelists from 39 countries attended the conference. Evangelists are committed to the public proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the universities of Europe.  The article noted, “A strong theme of the conference was the renewed spiritual openness emerging across the continent, particularly among young people.” Romans 10:15 says, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Gospel of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!” Trump lifted tariffs on 200 food products In the United States, President Donald Trump lifted tariffs on over 200 food products last Friday. The products include coffee, beef, bananas, and orange juice.  The move comes as Americans face rising grocery prices. Listen to comments from President Trump aboard Air Force One.  TRUMP: “For the most part, the foods, when we cut back a little bit on those tariffs, will get the price down. But they're not competitive in this country, like tomatoes and bananas and things we don't make in this country. So, there's no protection of our industries or our food products.” President Trump also suggested sending $2,000 tariff rebate checks to most Americans next year. House to release Epstein Files without redacting perpetrators' names The House of Representatives, in a near-unanimous vote, passed a bill on November 18 that would require the Department of Justice to release more files surrounding the deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, reports The Epoch Times. The final tally was 427–1. Republican Congressman Clay Higgins of Louisiana was the sole lawmaker who voted against the measure. Republican Senate Majority Leader John Thune of South Dakota said he will take up the bill. The Epstein Files Transparency Act, introduced by Democratic Congressman Ro Khanna of California and co-sponsored by Republican Congressman Thomas Massie of Kentucky, would order the Department of Justice to release “in a searchable and downloadable format all unclassified records, documents, communications, and investigative materials” tied to Epstein no later than 30 days following the enactment of the bill. The legislation would prohibit the Justice Department from withholding, delaying, or redacting records for reputational and political reasons. Oregon to pay 2 teachers $650,000 over their objection to biological boys entering female bathrooms A school district in Oregon recently agreed to a $650,000 settlement for wrongfully terminating two teachers who opposed transgender ideology.  Back in 2021, Grants Pass School District terminated two teachers named Rachel Sager and Katie Medart. The two had voiced objections to allowing biological boys to enter female bathrooms and locker rooms.  Alliance Defending Freedom represented the teachers in the case.  Attorney Mathew Hoffmann said, “Teachers don't give up their First Amendment rights when they set foot on school property. Public schools can't retaliate against speech simply because they disagree with what's said.” Deaths by in vitro fertilization surpass abortion deaths Live Action reports the number of lives lost to in vitro fertilization now surpasses those lost to abortion. In 2023, 3.8 million embryos were created through in vitro fertilization. Of those, 1.9 million embryos died or were deliberately killed. Another 1.7 million embryos were either miscarried, destroyed, donated to researchers, released for embryo adoption, or frozen indefinitely. Only 95,860 babies were born through the process. In comparison, there were one million abortions in the U.S. in 2023. Live Action noted, “In vitro fertilization is not about creating life but about controlling it, determining which lives are accepted as valuable and worthy and which are automatically destroyed for being deemed ‘subpar'.” Only 49% of Americans say religion important to daily lives A new report from Gallup found that the U.S. is experiencing one of the largest drops in religiosity in the world. Forty-nine percent of U.S. adults say religion is an important part of their daily lives today, down from 66% in 2015. The only countries with greater drops in religiosity, over a 10-year period, are Greece, Italy, Poland, Chile, and Turkey. However, Americans still have medium-high levels of Christian identification.
