In 1974, Rhonda Stapley was a pharmacy student at Utah University.  While waiting for a bus to take her back to the university campus, a young charismatic man, claiming to be a law student, pulled over in his VW Beatle and asked Rhonda if he could offer her a ride.  Against her better judgement, the young Mormon girl accepted.  Little did she know, she had just gotten into the car of a psychopathic serial killer, named Ted Bundy.  She’s been interviewed in numerous articles by magazines such as People and been a guest on the Dr. Phil show.  She’s the author of the book, “I Survived Ted Bundy: The Attack, Escape & PTSD that changed My Life.”

By age twelve, Flor had lived in 24 different locations across three continents with her family and 11 siblings as part of the apocalyptic cult…The Children of God. They were always on the move to escape the Antichrist and in preparation for the Apocalypse that was supposed to come in 1993…or at least that’s what their founder, David Berg had them believing. 

Growing up, Flor was not allowed to read, write, or have a traditional education. Unable to communicate with anyone outside the group, she spent most of her days in compounds in Southeast Asia caring for younger children in the group, tending to chores, and memorizing scripture. After Father David, the cult’s leader, died in 1994, many of his 12,000 followers were abandoned in a world for which they were unprepared and struggled to adjust to life outside the group. Following Father David’s instructions to move back to the west right before his death, Flor and her family moved to California after a long, cold winter in Chicago where they had spent two years. The cult slowly disbanded. With no money, job, or education, Flor and her family started over in her father’s hometown of California.

How do people become cult victims and somehow escape from the clutches of devils such as David Koresh, David Berg, and William Kamm?  Claire spent the first 36 years of her life in two different strict religious movements…the latter of which was Australia’s largest Doomsday cult… The Order of Saint Charbel, created by a pedophile named, William Kamm, also known as "The Little Pebble". In 2005, Kamm was sentenced to ten years in prison for a string of sexual attacks including aggravated sexual assault on a 15-year-old girl. He claimed that she was one of his 84 mystical wives. Kamm claimed to have received advice from the Virgin Mary that the girl should be chosen as one of 12 queens and 72 princesses who would all become his wives, with whom he would spawn a new human race after the world was cleansed and burnt by a ball of fire.  Trapped on a 20-acre compound fenced in with barbed-wire and no connection to the outside world…no television, no newspapers, Claire planned her escape. Through her courage and desperation, Claire and her eight children would finally escape this devil's clutches; and for the first time in her life, would embrace freedom.
