Nightmare Success In and Out

Honored Combat Veteran to Conviction: Jeremy Harrell's Battle with PTSD and the DOJ


Listen Later

How does an honored combat veteran who became an expert on PTSD helping so many with the Veterans Club, end up in prison? Jeremy Harrell survived the Iraq War only to return home to a different kind of battlefield—PTSD. Jeremy has been hailed as a leader in veteran advocacy and mental health. He founded the Veterans Club that has been nationally heralded as the leader of veteran PTSD treatment. Jeremy’s world unraveled when he was convicted of veteran benefit fraud with being disabled with PTSD. Jeremy did not diagnose himself of PTSD, no, that was diagnosed by several doctors. Jeremy took his case to trial and lost. Fresh out of federal prison, Jeremy joins us to talk about the fight for his reputation, the realities of navigating the justice system, and why the Bureau of Prisons now sees him as a voice for hope and redemption. This is a raw, honest look at the thin line how good people that are helping people can follow into the justice system abyss. A warrior for criminal justice reform has been awakened: Jeremy Harrell.
