You Say Manifesto, And I'm Out
Okay, friends. This one is going to be rough. Our psychic connection did not fail this time, but in a not nice way – we both picked some really tough stories to tell.
Maggie is going to talk about the disappearance of Alissa Turney. Alissa disappeared from her home on the very last day of her junior year of high school. Her creepy stepfather claims that she ran away and left a note indicating that she was running away and her case was not investigated for several years after her disappearance. It is believed that Michael Turney (Alissa’s stepfather) was involved in her disappearance, but police do not have enough evidence to prosecute him. If this story speaks to you in anyway, please consider helping in the following ways:
• Share Alissa’s story
• Sign the petition to have Michael Turney brought to trial for Alissa’s murder at this website: https://www.thepetitionsite.com/842/331/976/demand-michael-turney-go-to-trial-for-the-death-of-alissa-turney/
• Donate to the GoFundMe for billboards: https://www.gofundme.com/f/billboardsforalissa
• Voice your opinion to Arizona state officials
• If you have any information about this case, please contact the Phoenix Police Department, email [email protected], or call 1-800-THE-LOST
On another unhappy note, Dreia is going to tell us the story of the Tuskegee Syphilis Study in Alabama in the 1930s. In this study, the United States Government exploited a total of 600 impoverished black men. The purpose of the study was to observe the effects of untreated syphilis, but the subjects of this study were not informed of this plan. The study lasted for a total of forty years and the men never received treatment for the disease, even though the cure for syphilis had been discovered in the 1940s. This is truly a garbage story and we have a lot of feelings about it.
We hope you have feelings about it, too. Thanks for listening.
