In this final episode of Youth Group Cult I'll talk about filing a report that reopens the case into Bernadette's accidental death case. I'll also walk through what it was like to experience David's arrest and death. This is the conclusion of the series. Thanks for listening.

In this episode I share about my last interactions with David. How I participated in his second wedding and how he participated in mine. I'll also talk about learning details and information that shaped my last conversation with David where I told him that I didn't trust him and was not interested in continuing my friendship with him.

In this episode I share about what it was like living with David at the Vander Meer family home on Eldora Street in Las Vegas. From the lies and deceit to the wildly inappropriate behavior David instigated, living at the house on Eldora Street was anything but normal. This was where the cracks in our friendship began to form.

In this episode I talk about my friendship with Bernadette, my last interactions with her, and learning about her death. A coffee conversation I had with her 20 years ago revealed suspicions that would be validated years later. I'll also share about my involvement in her funeral and a portion of the song I wrote and sang at it.

In this episode hear about how David normalized cult-like behaviors in the church. David desired a cult-like devotion to himself and was the instigator of inappropriate behaviors for youth group students. These are accounts of interactions I had with David while I was a student in his youth group.
