John Comerford was raised in a home where he felt happy, safe and loved. But when he went to high school, his teacher took those feelings from him.

He was physically and sexually abused by his teacher and it changed his life forever. After he left school, he was left with the emotional scars and deep routed trauma that made him want to take the life of the man who had caused him so much pain. So he loaded a shotgun and made his way school...

In this episode, John tells us his story and how, after his journey of healing, he has helped many other victims of child abuse.

This is REAL LIVES.
