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.

At just 11 years old, Lindsay Tornambe’s family left Pennsylvania for what they thought was a Bible-based camp in rural Minnesota. But the “camp” was actually the home of a self-proclaimed prophet named Victor, whose control and manipulation would lead to years of trauma, spiritual abuse, and fear.

In this episode of No Longer Nomads, host Josh Doyle and his brother Tommy sit down with Lindsay to hear how she was given away as a “maiden” at just 12 years old—and how she found the strength to escape, expose the truth, and rebuild her life in faith and freedom.

This is one of the most powerful and harrowing survivor stories we’ve ever shared. Lindsay’s courage, honesty, and deep belief in God will move you, challenge you, and remind you of the power of redemption.

Award-winning journalist and true crime podcaster Delia D’Ambra (host of Park Predators and CounterClock) returns to No Longer Nomads for a gripping Halloween special.

Nadeen Flaveney grew up kidnapped between two countries, raised in an abusive Muslim household, and began seeing demons in seventh grade — the same year she unknowingly opened occult doors searching for relief from depression.

By 21 she had tried every answer the world and the spiritual world could offer: Dubai wealth, nightclub money, new age, psychics, manifesting, two suicide attempts. Then a drug dealer texted her: 'You should come to church.' What she experienced inside that building — and what she'd experienced years earlier in a stranger's garage when something physically left her body — she still cannot fully explain.

This is one of the most extraordinary testimonies we've ever heard on No Longer Nomads.

What You’ll Hear:
- How childhood trauma shaped her view of God
- The battle with mental health and identity
- Real encounters with spiritual darkness and deliverance
- How Jesus completely transformed her life
- What healing and forgiveness look like on the other side
