51. Failure to protect: The children left behind by the Witness Protection program


Listen Later

Jackee Taylor was put into the Federal Witness Protection program as a 7-year-old girl after her father, Clarence Crouch, a convicted killer and infamous member of the Hells Angels, turned and became a government informant. Jackee and her family have now been in Witness protection for nearly 40 years, but after a life full of hardship and struggle, she had enough and went public with her story - exposing the major flaws of the program and pushing for fundamental change. 


In this episode you'll hear:

  • What it's like being coached into living a lie.
  • How Jackee learns of her father’s secret.
  • The struggles that come with a missing identity.
  • Why the Witness Protection Program is fundamentally flawed.
  • Jackee’s life mission to be the voice for others struggling.
