Staged family violence that fooled a thousand people into calling the police. A creator platform that burned through a million users and got sold as an NFT. And now a pregnancy announcement involving a Down syndrome diagnosis that may or may not be real, from a man who has built his entire career on making people believe things that never happened. Jesse Ridgway has been escalating for twenty years and nothing in the ecosystem around him — not the media, not the audience, not the people in his life — is slowing him down.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins for a three-part conversation that goes where nobody else in media is willing to go. The brain behind the behavior. The machine that feeds it. And the audience that guarantees it never stops. If Jesse Ridgway is a case study, this is the clinical examination his record has been asking for.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
In 2023, an Oklahoma sheriff named Eddie Virden announced a multi-state task force to investigate cold cases potentially connected to Dennis Rader during the years Rader was officially considered inactive. In August of that year, deputies excavated a property near Rader's former Park City, Kansas, home using cadaver dogs and ground-penetrating radar. In March of 2024, Missouri authorities officially ruled out one case, Shawna Beth Garber, and attributed it to a different man, Talfey Reeves, who had died in 2021.Twenty years after his arrest, the BTK case is still being worked.In the fourth chapter of host Tony Brueski's five-part Hidden Killers investigation, the thirteen-year period between Rader's last confirmed killing and his 2004 resurfacing gets walked through honestly. The standard story is that he stopped. Got it under control. Aged out. The actual answer is more complicated, and several investigative offices around the country still believe parts of his record are incomplete.The episode covers what Dr. Katherine Ramsland concluded about Rader's "powering down" cycles after more than a decade of correspondence with him. It covers the Cynthia Dawn Kinney disappearance from Pawhuska, Oklahoma, in June of 1976, and the 2023 release of a Rader journal entry titled "Bad Wash Day" describing a fantasy of taking a young woman from a laundromat. It covers the divergence between the Osage County Sheriff's Office, which still considers Rader a prime suspect in the Kinney case, and the Osage County District Attorney's office, which has publicly stated the evidence does not support charges.This is the fourth uncomfortable truth of the series. The BTK case is closed for the ten murders in Kansas. It is not closed for the rest.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Read transcriptAbout this episode: Stephen Drover has directed Macbeth before; twenty years ago, the day after it closed, he wanted to do it again. Now, as both adapter and director for Bard on the Beach in Vancouver, he's finally getting that chance. In this rich conversation, Stephen talks about approaching Shakespeare not as a sacred text to be served but as a living collaboration, asking not what the words inherently mean but what meaning is being created in this specific theatre, for this specific audience, right now. The conversation covers the challenge of stripping away cultural baggage around the witches, to building a post-environmental dystopia as the world of the play, to why Stephen leans into the brutal, blood-soaked reality of the play rather than sanitizing it for comfortable consumption. He also reflects on how becoming a parent has changed the way he receives Macbeth's deeply embedded anxieties about children and grief. This episode explores: Approaching Shakespeare as a collaborator rather than a proprietor — and what that means in practice for this production The concentric rings of Stephen's career: actor to director to artistic director to dramaturg How a late diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder and ADHD illuminates why theatre suits his brain so well New play development at the Arts Club and the 'one size fits one' philosophy And much more!

The NYU Wireless Workshop this year was a lively scientific event, where the future of wireless technology was debated. Erik G. Larsson was among the invited speakers, and the main theme was “Twenty Years of Massive MIMO: What's Next?”. In this episode, he discusses the main insights with Emil Björnson. They first dissect the practical challenges that still hinder multi-antenna technology from reaching its full potential. It ranges from unfavorable traffic patterns to channel characteristics and channel state information, and how to circumvent these issues. The conversation also covers wireless sensing, AI data aggregation over the air, near-field communications, and common misconceptions around mutual coupling. The most thought-provoking question is: Is the demand for wireless connectivity saturating, or is there still a wireless future ahead? Music: On the Verge by Joseph McDade.

This episode was never meant for the public. It was recorded exclusively for our Patreon community — the people who are already in the inner circle. But we're pulling the curtain back and letting you see what S2S really looks like when the pressure is off, the cameras are still rolling, and nobody is performing for anybody. This is the crew unfiltered. No script. No agenda. Just ET, Karl, CJ, and Jemal being exactly who they are. From 80s hip-hop debates to the first game they ever ran, to ET getting real about why he stopped giving his expertise away for free — this episode has everything the highlight reel never shows you. And then Pops pulls up and drops the origin story of how ET and CJ found each other — the moment that started all of this. If you've ever wondered what S2S looks like behind closed doors — this is it. In This Episode: The 80s hip-hop playlist that shaped who they became — LL Cool J, Eric B & Rakim, Babyface and more The first piece of game they ever ran (ET's Babyface line on Dede is legendary) Why ET stopped giving his time and expertise away for free — and why you should too The "selfish vs. self-focused" conversation that will change how you think about your time and money A special visit from the Cooking with the Cooks family Pops pulls up and tells the untold origin story of how ET and CJ connected Timestamps: Chapters 00:00:00 Opening: The Public Was Never Supposed to See This 00:03:39 Throwback Music Session: LL Cool J and the Golden Era of Hip-Hop 00:09:58 Baby Face and Early Game: The First Piece of Wisdom 00:15:00 The Football Team Get Naked Story: When Confidence Was King 00:17:18 The Michael Jordan Clip: Being Selfish Is How You Win 00:18:05 The Shift: How ET Stopped Giving Everything Away for Free 00:22:02 The Mastermind Testimony: When People Pay, They Apply 00:24:16 Valuing Your Time and Expertise: The CJ Partnership Model 00:32:59 The ETA Records Story: Giving What's Earned, Not What's Expected 00:37:35 Pops Enters the Building: The Man Who Started It All 00:41:04 The Origin Story: From Prison Visit to Twenty Years of Partnership 00:43:43 Closing: Behind the Scenes Access and What's Next Key Takeaways: The difference between being selfish and being self-focused — and why it matters for your money and your time Why giving your expertise away for free is a disservice to yourself and the people you're trying to help The unplanned moment that created one of the most influential mentoring relationships in the world What the S2S Patreon is really about — and why this content exists

What if your child graduated with straight A's but had no wisdom, no courage, and no character? Grades were never meant to be the real goal — and this episode is going to challenge everything you thought homeschooling was supposed to accomplish.We are breaking down why character education is the foundation your homeschool actually needs, and sharing 3 practical ways to start building it in your home this week:✅Why curriculum delivers information but character determines everything else✅1 question to ask at dinner tonight that builds character, ownership and leadership✅How to focus on just one character quality for 3 to 4 months without overwhelm✅Why a single Bible verse can do more for your child than any curriculum can✅The tool that helps your whole family work on character together every single dayGrab the Character Training Toolkit mentioned in this episode and start building what really matters in your homeschool.Resources for YouCharacter Training Toolkit (charts, e-book, videos)Free Character Mini Chart Show Notes:The Real Goal of Homeschooling: Raising Kids with Godly CharacterIf your child graduates with straight A's but lacks wisdom, character, and courage — have you really succeeded? Grades were never meant to be the goal of education. Today I want to talk about the real goal of homeschooling.God Uses Young Leaders — Not Just Good Test TakersWhen we go back and look at Scripture, we see repeatedly that God does use young leaders. But these leaders aren't necessarily ones that just passed the test. It goes so much deeper than that.David led Israel as a young man. He killed Goliath with some rocks. Daniel influenced kings through wisdom and character. They both had godly character and they had faith.We have the freedom to raise thinkers, leaders, and disciples. And that is exactly what we should be doing.Here's the thing. Curriculum delivers information. Character determines how that information is used. Let me repeat that. Curriculum delivers information. Character determines how that information is used.The Story of William WilberforceI want to tell you a little story about a man named William Wilberforce. His dad died when he was 9, so his mom sent him to London to live with his aunt and uncle. They were believers, and there was a lot of Christian influence in the home.He was exposed to a man named George Whitfield and became a believer himself at the age of 12. He also became friends with John Newton — for those of you who don't know who John Newton is, he wrote Amazing Grace. He was a slave trader who turned pastor. Wilberforce started seeking spiritual counsel from John Newton.And he said this: God had set before me two objects — the suppression of the slave trade, the reformation of manners.This took a lot of courage. Christian worldview drives out slavery — it is an anti-slavery mission. But this cause was very unpopular in Parliament back in the day.Wilberforce became the target of ridicule, political attacks, and even assassination threats. People wanted to kill him because he wanted to get rid of the slave trade. Admiral Nelson was so irate that he actually pummeled Wilberforce on the street.Twenty Years of PerseveranceHe began in 1793. He introduced an abolition bill. It failed by 8 votes. Then he had a new bill banning British ships from the slave trade. It failed by 2 votes. His political allies began to abandon him, but he continued to introduce abolition bills year after year.Twenty years of influencing public opinion. And he began to see the tide turn against the evils of slavery.Fast forward to February 23, 1807. He's in the House of Commons. The room rose to its feet, turned to Wilberforce, and began to cheer — three rousing Hip Hip Hoorays — while Wilberforce sat with his head bowed and wept. He was so overcome. The vote passed 283 to 16.They had abolished the British slave trade.That's the kind of person I want my kids to be. And I'm sure you want your kids to be strong in their faith but also strong in character. That is the character of a leader — faith-driven purpose, moral courage, perseverance despite failure after failure, a long-term vision, and a leadership stand that protects millions of lives.How to Build Godly Character in Your KidsSo how can we take this story and apply it to you? I believe we need to be raising our kids to have courage, perseverance, and endurance. And I think we take it off of our shoulders and put it on God's shoulders to train our kids in godly character. It was godly character that got Wilberforce through 20 years.I wouldn't try to tackle every character quality at once. I would choose one character quality that your kids need to work on and spend 3 or 4 months on it. Find a verse that reinforces that godly character. Let your kids memorize it and say it every morning at breakfast. And then, when they struggle and they don't do it, you bring them back to that verse. It's always back to God's words — not my words.One of the things we have put out is our Character Training Toolkit. There are three charts, and they all have the positive and the negative — for example, truthful and cheating. There's a space to write what happens when they're truthful and what happens when they're cheating, a verse, and you've already decided ahead of time what you're going to do. It also comes with mini charts you can put on the refrigerator, so everyone in the house is working on it together. I'll put a link to that in the show notes.Simple Dinner Table Questions That Develop CharacterAnother thing you could do is at dinner tonight ask, what is one good decision you made today? This trains your kids to think about their character. It trains them to take ownership and leadership of their character.It forces them to think about how their day went. A low could be that they sinned and they need to confess it. A high may be that they were truthful and received a blessing. These types of activities develop ownership and leadership — and that's what I want in my kids. They didn't need to be dependent on me for the rest of their life.The Question to Ask About Every Curriculum ChoiceAs you look at resources for your homeschool — whether it's curriculum or whatever — use this question: Will this help my child become wiser? Or just busier?Is it just checking off a checklist so they can get a grade? Or are you truly building wisdom in your children? Great homeschooling parents protect curiosity, character, and independent thinking — which leads to ownership and leadership.Your homeschool is not just preparing your kids for college or a job. You are raising thinkers, leaders, influencers, and disciples.Character was one of the most important things for me. Besides a relationship with God, that is what I wanted for my kids — to think biblically and critically, and to act according to the Bible as well.Check the show notes for links to the Character Training Toolkit, the Leaders in Training series, the e-book on manners, and the other resources mentioned in this episode.If you got one thing out of this episode, would you please share it with another homeschooler or Christian parent who could use it? And wherever you're listening, leave a review or a comment — that would mean the world to me.

When a 16-year-old Jessica Mauboy stood on a makeshift stage in the middle of the desert for her Australian Idol audition, she was just a shy kid from Darwin with a massive voice. Within a few years, she was catapulted from the Top End to the top of the charts. Earlier this year, Jessica returned to the Australian Idol stage – this time as a mentor, stepping in to fill Kyle Sandilands’ empty chair. But she hasn't forgotten the hurdles she faced or the comments about her body, which she now sees through an entirely different lens. In this episode of the Stellar podcast, she explains how Kyle’s bluntness helped her develop thick skin at a young age, what was behind her decision to leave her long-time record label and become her own "boss lady", and how her husband Themeli Magriplis and their 14-month-old daughter Mia keep her grounded through it all.Watch the full episode with Jessica Mauboy here Find more information on Jessica’s suncare brand Desert Rose here Something To Talk About is a podcast by Stellar, hosted by Sarrah Le Marquand Find more from Stellar via Instagram @stellar or stellarmag.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
What started on March 1, 1872, when Yellowstone became the first National Park in the world, has grown to over 433 units covering over 85 million acres in America. Tagged "America's Best Idea," we celebrate National Parks Week every year in April. Roughly 20,000 people work either full-time or seasonally with the National Park Service but the system also relies on over 130,000 volunteers. The National Parks of Lake Superior Foundation--sponsor of this podcast--is one of those volunteer organizations. In this episode of the Lake Superior Podcast, Walt Lindala and Frida Waara talk with Carol Brady, founding board member and long-time Chairman of NPLSF, about the organization's mission and projects that have developed over the last two decades.5 Quotes“In 2026, this will be 20 years since we became an actual official 501(c)(3) nonprofit foundation.”“National Park Service unbelievably has over 400 units in the country, and the government budget for the National Park Service is a finite number.”“There's only so much budget to go around. In order to keep all of these places as special as folks expect them to be when you go there, they need help. They need outside help.”“That is an ongoing thing that will last much longer than I will, I'm quite sure.”“You're not going to really notice that this is not the coast of an ocean. The lake could be calm, it can be just wild, but the best thing is it's clear and cold. You dip it in there and take a drink, it's just great. It's fresh water. It's just amazing. People think it's going to just look like a big lake, and then when they realize it looks like the ocean, they forget that it's clear and cold and fresh.”Connect With Us:Lake Superior Podcast Page – https://nplsf.org/podcastFacebook – https://www.facebook.com/NationalParksOfLakeSuperiorFoundationSponsors:Cafe Imports – Minneapolis-based importers of specialty green coffees since 1993, focused on sustainability.

Mick West co-founded Neversoft Entertainment, programmed Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, retired from Activision in 2003, and then did something nobody has ever forensically examined: he built Morgellons Watch, a website dedicated to convincing the public that Morgellons disease is a delusion. He wrote over 100 articles under the pseudonym “Michael.” He edited the Wikipedia Morgellons article under a second pseudonym, “Herd of Swine,” while lobbying for his own site to be cited as a credible independent source. His Wikipedia account was flagged for sockpuppetry. The site accumulated roughly 12,000 comments from 88 registered users — an average engagement rate of 20+ comments per user — on a condition mainstream medicine had already dismissed.The site is still live in 2026. West says he lost interest around 2012.This episode applies the same forensic standards to the counter-narrative that Uninvestigated has applied to the Morgellons Research Foundation. If the MRF's IRS 990 filings, defense-connected board members, indicted grant recipient, and vanished 12,000-family patient registry warranted investigation, then the debunking apparatus that ran in parallel deserves identical scrutiny.Crystal examines the cost-benefit problem: why a financially independent retired programmer with no medical or scientific training sustained a complex content operation for years on a single niche medical condition. She maps the pseudonym architecture: “Michael” on Morgellons Watch, “Herd of Swine” on Wikipedia, Mick West everywhere else — three identities, three platforms, one narrative project. She traces the timeline convergence: Morgellons Watch launched in April 2006, the exact month Congressional pressure toward a CDC investigation reached critical mass. And she identifies the open forensic threads that have never been pursued: historical WHOIS domain registration records for morgellonswatch.com, cross-domain registrant comparison with contrailscience.com and metabunk.org, IP address hosting history, and Wikipedia edit pattern analysis.The episode also explores a remarkable synchronicity. West chose “Herd of Swine” from Mark 5 — the Gadarene demoniac narrative, where unclean spirits called “Legion” are cast into pigs that rush into the sea. Years later, independently and without knowledge of West's username, Crystal drew a parallel between the Gadarene story and the Morgellons patient experience: the afflicted person dismissed as mad, the community that prefers chains to healing, the testimony nobody wants to hear. West named himself after the destruction vehicle. Crystal found the story from the testimony side. Same scripture. Opposite characters.The episode closes with the 12,000 mirror: 12,000 families entered the MRF registry hoping their data would drive research. That registry was destroyed without public disclosure when the foundation dissolved in 2012. 12,000 comments accumulated on Morgellons Watch, a site engineered to ensure that anyone Googling their symptoms found dismissal before they found help. One apparatus collected testimony. The other buried it. Neither has been audited.Open investigative threads: WHOIS forensics on morgellonswatch.com domain registration and hosting history. Wayback Machine timeline analysis. Cross-domain infrastructure comparison. Wikipedia edit history audit for User:Herd of Swine. Comment metadata analysis including timestamp patterns and user registration clustering. Financial trail from Neversoft/Activision exit through Committee for Skeptical Inquiry fellowship.West built Morgellons Watch. Crystal built Westwatch. Somebody had to.

From jaw-dropping headlines to major wins in sports and entertainment, this episode of The Rickey Smiley Morning Show is packed with moments that had listeners talking. The show leads with the shocking news that rapper Mystikal has pleaded guilty to a third-degree rape charge stemming from a 2022 case and now faces up to 20 years in prison, with sentencing scheduled for June—marking another serious chapter in the rapper’s long legal history. The conversation then shifts to Hollywood, where Michael B. Jordan is riding high after making history as the first actor to win an Oscar for playing twins in the film Sinners. Adding to the buzz, Jordan has sparked dating rumors after being spotted with rising Bridgerton star Yerin Ha, fueling chatter about his next chapter both on and off the screen. The show also delivers a dose of nostalgia and “what could’ve been” energy as Bill Bellamy opens up about nearly dating Janet Jackson in the ’90s, admitting he “fumbled” the moment because he didn’t want to risk their friendship—a confession that quickly went viral and had fans revisiting one of pop culture’s biggest almost-romances. Wrapping things up on a high note, the WNBA and its players’ union reached a landmark new collective bargaining agreement, avoiding a potential lockout and dramatically increasing player pay. The deal includes a massive salary cap jump, revenue sharing near 20 percent, and the possibility of million-dollar contracts—signaling a transformative moment for women’s basketball as the league prepares for its upcoming season.

But if there's one label that changed everything else. it's seeker. This is the story most people don’t know about Brother Barry… the journey of a seeker who was looking for truth in all the wrong places, until God led him to the one place he did his best to avoid.

After years of a chaotic childhood, unstable homes, and churches that left him more confused than when he walked in, God led him right to the door he’d been passing every single day. But what he didn’t know was that his story was just beginning. Because God had a calling waiting for him that would blow up every plan he had for his young life. Now, if Brother Barry’s story spoke to you, or if you know someone who’s in the middle of their own secret journey, share this with them.

From Crisis to Opportunity When the Wrangler plant closed its doors in Page County over two decades ago, the community faced a crossroads. However, what could have been a devastating blow instead became the catalyst for educational transformation. Dr. Kim Blosser, President of Laurel Ridge Community College, talks with Janet Michael on The Valley Today to reflect on how the Luray-Page County Center has spent 20 years opening doors for students who once had limited access to higher education. Geography as Destiny Before the center opened, Page County students faced a challenging reality. Located in a valley surrounded by mountains, they endured 45-minute to 90-minute commutes to reach the nearest Laurel Ridge campuses in Middletown or Warrenton. Consequently, many students simply gave up on their educational dreams or opted for Blue Ridge Community College in Harrisonburg, which offered an easier drive without crossing mountain passes. "Students in that county had to go the furthest from any other of our localities," Dr. Blosser explains. This geographic isolation meant that Page County residents were effectively cut off from the educational opportunities available to their neighbors in other parts of the Laurel Ridge service area. A Community Rallies Fortunately, local leaders recognized the urgent need for change. When the Wrangler plant closed, the town of Luray acquired the annex building. Together, the county and town invested in renovating part of the facility, offering the college space for minimal rent. This partnership created not only a retraining center for displaced workers but also a permanent educational presence in the community. The impact proved immediate and profound. Federal Trade Act funding helped former Wrangler employees pursue new careers through education. Dr. Blosser shares the touching story of Cindy, a former plant worker who earned her associate's degree and spent her entire second career working at the Luray-Page Center—until her recent retirement after nearly 20 years of service. Meanwhile, another former employee went on to become an elementary school teacher, demonstrating how access to education can completely transform lives. Outgrowing the Original Vision As the years passed, however, the old Wrangler annex building began showing its limitations. While the space worked well for traditional classroom subjects like English and history, it couldn't accommodate science labs, electrical training, or HVAC programs. Moreover, the aging facility required increasingly costly repairs, and the town no longer owned the building—a private company did. "Our students deserved better," Dr. Blosser recalls thinking. The college began searching for alternatives, examining various existing buildings throughout the county. Yet each option presented similar challenges: they were outdated structures requiring extensive renovation with uncertain outcomes. Building a Dream Then came a breakthrough. The Jenkins family stepped forward with an extraordinary offer: they would donate land for a new campus. Located behind Walmart in a central, easily accessible location, the site seemed perfect. What followed was nothing short of remarkable. The Laurel Ridge Educational Foundation launched an ambitious fundraising campaign, ultimately raising over $4 million from Page County residents and businesses. "They were just desperate not to lose the college," Dr. Blosser notes. "They know it's the heart of economic development." Despite supply chain challenges during the pandemic—including having to switch brick suppliers mid-construction—the project moved forward with impressive speed. A Campus for the Future Today, Jenkins Hall stands as a testament to community vision and determination. Unlike traditional institutional buildings, the facility features warm wood beams, open ceilings, and panoramic mountain views. The design intentionally creates a welcoming atmosphere that reflects the natural beauty of Page County. The first floor houses specialized labs that were impossible in the old location. Students now learn electrical work, HVAC systems, and heavy equipment operation in a dedicated trades lab. Across the hall, a modern science lab enables anatomy and physiology courses—essential prerequisites for health profession programs. Additionally, the building serves as home to the region's only Physical Therapy Assisting program, drawing students from an hour and a half radius. Upstairs, the design becomes even more innovative. Three classrooms feature soundproof movable walls that collapse to create one large space accommodating up to 100 people. This flexibility allows the center to host dual enrollment graduations, chamber of commerce job fairs, and corporate meetings—addressing a critical shortage of community gathering spaces in Page County. More Than Just Classrooms Throughout our conversation, Dr. Blosser emphasizes that Laurel Ridge operates as a "comprehensive community college." This means serving everyone from adult basic education students to those pursuing the first two years of a bachelor's degree. The college offers GED preparation, English as a Second Language classes, short-term workforce training, corporate education, and traditional transfer programs. "We can serve as many as 20,000 individuals in a year," Dr. Blosser reveals. Furthermore, approximately 50 percent of transfer program classes now offer online options, providing crucial flexibility for working adults and parents. While hands-on programs like welding and phlebotomy require in-person attendance, students can increasingly customize their schedules by mixing on-campus and online coursework. The Door to Tomorrow Perhaps the most intriguing detail about Jenkins Hall involves a door on the first floor that appears to lead nowhere. However, Dr. Blosser eagerly points it out on every tour she gives. The architectural plans show this door will eventually connect via a breezeway to a second building—one that doesn't exist yet. "That door doesn't go nowhere," she insists with a smile. "There is something beyond that building. We just have to wait, and when that moment arrives, be ready to move." This forward-thinking approach reflects the same vision that transformed a closed factory into an educational hub two decades ago. As Page County continues growing—with new townhomes and developments surrounding what was once an isolated field behind Walmart—the college stands ready to expand its mission once again. Looking Ahead While Dr. Blosser modestly suggests she'll likely retire before the center's 40th anniversary, she remains confident about continued growth. The rapid changes of the past 20 years—from distance learning via Old Dominion University in a small computer room to today's sophisticated online platforms—hint at even more dramatic transformations ahead. For now, the Luray-Page County Center continues fulfilling its founding mission: ensuring that geography no longer determines educational destiny. Whether students seek workforce credentials, transfer degrees, or personal enrichment, they can find opportunities right in their own community. After 20 years, that door the Jenkins family helped open remains wide, welcoming anyone ready to walk through and discover what lies beyond.
THE MURDER OF LOGAN AND THE PERSISTENCE OF VIOLENCE Colleague Professor Robert G. Parkinson. Twenty years after the lament, a surveyor encountered a weeping Native man in the woods who revealed he was Logan's nephew. The nephew confessed to killing his uncle near Lake Erie around 1780. Logan had become a "dangerous" free agent and powerful orator whose influence threatened the political stability of the Six Nations during the Revolutionary War, leading to an order for his silence. This revelation underscores the brutality of the Ohio country, which remained the bloodiest ground of the revolution even after the British surrender at Yorktown. NUMBER 6
