In this gripping second part of *The Lindsay Tornambe Story*, host Josh Doyle continues the conversation with Lindsay as she recounts her decade trapped inside a religious cult led by Victor Barnard — a man who twisted Scripture, manipulated young women, and convinced families to surrender their daughters in the name of “faith.”
⚠️ Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of child abuse, cult manipulation, and sexual assault. Listener discretion advised.
Lindsay opens up about life as one of “Victor’s maidens,” the brainwashing, emotional abuse, and horrifying control that kept her captive for years. From forced servitude and psychological torment to the moment she began to see the truth, this episode dives deep into what it took for her to break free, confront the lies, and help bring justice to the man who destroyed so many lives.
This isn’t just a story about surviving abuse — it’s a story about redemption, courage, and finding faith on the other side of trauma.
