Welcome to Episode Seven of Do You Dare?

Happy Pride Month guys!

This month we are going to be focusing on cases relating to LGBTQ+ folks and choosing to highlight stories that have impacted the history of this resilient community and forced changes to be made. We feel it's important to share their stories and say their names so that they might be remembered not only for the tragedy that befell them but also the people they were and the differences they have made.

In this episode Em will be covering the sad case of Rebecca Wight and Claudia Brenner and shocking Cian with not only murder but also an absolutely incredible tale of perseverance, survival and advocacy.

In this story, where a romantic camping trip along the Appalachian trail was ruined by an asshole with a rifle, we will follow the twists, the turns and the craziness that left doctors stunned by one woman's ability to live and judges condemning one man's abhorrent excuses for the things he did.

Thanks to everyone who has joined us for this week's heartbreaking case and we hope to see you back next Tuesday as Cian share's with you his second tale in our Pride Month coverage.
