Tess is here to discuss the details of the SA committed against her as a 14 y/o child. This episode covers the crime, the circumstances, and details that often don't get shared like insights into the criminal justice system. Tess also details the personal toll this still takes from her as she heals from trauma and aims to instil safety for her children. Thank you Tess for coming on and for all the work yourself and the other victim survivors are doing to improve outcomes for sexual assault victims, and hold those offenders accountable.

Collier Landry comes onto the podcast to talk about how he is in fact, moving past murder following the murder of his Mother Noreen when he was 11 years old. 

The Moving Past Murder podcast is a place for trauma survivors to connect with a fellow survivor. Each week Collier Landry discusses the repercussions of his mother's murder while also looking at similar true crime stories, speaking to trauma survivors and talking about what it takes to move past it.

MOVING PAST MURDER: While most hosts of true crime podcasts simply discuss murders that fascinate them, host Collier Landry has actually lived through one. 

Collier was 11 when his father, Dr. John F. Boyle, Jr. brutally murdered his mother Noreen, and buried her in the basement. The loss of a loved one by murder is more common than you may think. Collier testified against his father in what would be the "trial of the century" in his hometown of Mansfield, Ohio. In 2020, more than 17,000 people were victims of murder in the United States according to statista.com. That means thousands of American’s are suffering from grief, trauma, and survivor's guilt.

Every Friday, Collier Landry releases an episode covering unanswered questions behind murder, its motives, and moving on. His hope is that 'Moving Past Murder' serves as a kind of therapy and reconciliation for himself and listeners who are processing betrayal and trauma in their own lives.

Watch 'A Murder in Mansfield' Here & Make sure to contribute to Collier if you can!

In this episode survivor of child sexual abuse Jarad details his personal experience with surviving ongoing child sexual abuse at the hands of a neighbour in the community. Jarad doesn't go into explicit detail, but we do touch on aspects fo the crimes that occurred during his childhood. Moving on from that we start to discuss the ongoing impacts of CSA that came out of this trauma. The mental health aspect is something we do go into, and the ways in which Jarad has advocated consistently for children and other survivors. Additionally Jarad details later in life, being involved in a family court battle against the man he accused of sexual assault.
