About this listen

In the debut episode of If I Told You, "Tell Me What Happened", we explore the chilling true story of a mother’s fight to protect her youngest child from an unseen predator. What begins as a messy divorce reveals disturbing signs of hidden abuse—cryptic behaviors, strange reactions, and even spiritual revelations.

Blending psychology, faith, and investigative storytelling, this episode unravels the layers of covert abuse and the spiritual battles that accompany it. As the mother fights to protect her child, she faces an unresponsive legal system and a community unwilling to believe her. How do you prove a crime when the evidence is spiritual and the system demands physical proof?

This story challenges us to confront uncomfortable truths: Would you believe someone if they told you? How do we fight crimes that thrive in darkness—both physical and spiritual?

Raw, haunting, and unforgettable, Tell Me What Happened sets the tone for a groundbreaking series that dares to expose the unseen.
