Summary

According to the National Center for Victims of Crime, almost 90,000 cases of child sexual abuse are reported each year. Countless incidents go unreported, and 96 percent of these children are abused by someone they know and trust. In this episode, my guests discuss what it's like to be young teens, the older men they were with and the manipulation they went through. First interview with Rosie from Voice of the Victim. She talks about the grooming process and the effects it had on her. My second guest Cara (starts at 23mins) talks about a relationship an 18 year old started with her when she was around 13 years old. My third guest Tiffany (starts at 1 hour 17mins) was targeted by a family friend who hides behind his membership in the Mormon church. Her parents handle the discovery of this abuse in sharply contrasting ways, adding to her fear and shame.

0:22.3	So should probably let that perspiration come through. Like a lot of you, I have tried many all natural deodorants and all
0:28.8	natural products and had a lot of lackluster experiences. After trying, oh my Gaia, I had my doubts
0:35.3	until I was at the airport. A flight was delayed. Subway was
0:40.1	delayed. Line was shut down. Ride didn't show up. And it took me 12 hours to get to my destination.
0:46.6	And when I got there, I didn't stink. I still smelled like Egyptian musk. The scent I chose from

1:21.8	Today's episode is about statutory rape, which is looked at a little differently than most other sexual assault.
1:32.5	Statutory rape revolves around somebody that's of consenting age, engaging in sexual contact
1:40.9	with somebody that is not. And with that age gap and that dynamic, it's always a manipulation of the younger person.
1:51.5	Statutory rape is one of those subjects that's not talked about enough and is a subject that hits
1:59.6	close to home for me.
2:00.7	I'm sure most of you remember a situation that hits close to home for me.
2:05.9	I'm sure most of you remember a situation that happened to me from my episode.
2:10.7	There are a lot of different takes on the subject on this week's episode.
