Summary

Jan Broberg (@janbroberg) is an actress, singer, dancer, host of The Jan Broberg Show, subject of the Netflix documentary Abducted In Plain Sight and Peacock's A Friend of the Family, and author of The Jan Broberg Story: The True Crime Story of a Young Girl Abducted.

What We Discuss with Jan Broberg:
  • One in four children will be molested, and 97 percent of the time, it's by a family member. In Jan Broberg's case, it was by a close "friend" of the family.
  • How this predator β€” himself a father of five β€” expertly infiltrated the trust of Jan's family when she was just a child and manipulated her, her siblings, and her parents into questioning their very reality.
  • How Jan was kidnapped by this family "friend" not once, but twice as a teenager, and what happened in the aftermath when she was finally recovered.
  • Why this story β€” and countless stories like it β€” should serve as a wake-up call to legislators that we need to update public policy and raise awareness of this all-too-common threat to our children.
  • How our children can be prepared to speak up when the adults in their lives violate their trust and abuse them β€” and what we as adults can do to ensure their claims are taken seriously and remove them from danger.
  • And much more...
