About this listen
Content warning: This episode describes physical child abuse and references child sexual abuse.
In this emotional podcast episode, the narrator recounts their legal battle against their parents and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in 2022, after being served with a protection order. The narrator decided to represent themselves in court, despite the pressure from lawyers advising them to surrender.
The episode highlights the intense panic and anxiety the narrator experienced during the proceedings, including the psychological toll of facing their parents and the Mormon lawyer. The narrator meticulously prepared evidence, including documentation of abuse and personal trauma, while their parents and their lawyer tried to discredit them. The court revealed the deep lies and evasions from the parents, including the mother’s attempt to falsify her history with Child Protective Services.
Ultimately, the judge issued a decision, granting a two-year protection order rather than the five years the plaintiffs sought. The episode reflects the ongoing struggle to confront and expose the truth about the abuse and the toll it takes on the narrator’s mental and emotional well-being.
