Hey everyone, it's Jamie. Today I'm re-releasing a very early episode of Murderish,

0:05.4

in which I speak with Teranul, who survived a brutal attack by master manipulator, John Mehan,

0:12.4

aka Dirty John. Today, Tera helps other survivors of crime, and has become a good friend of mine.

0:19.8

Her story is shocking, but it's one of triumph as well. Without further delay,

0:25.9

please enjoy my conversation with Teranul. For all of you who have listened to the Dirty John

0:30.9

podcast, you are in for a real treat today. I had the opportunity to interview Teranul recently,

1:32.9

morning. Everybody's really eager to hear from you, and seriously cannot wait for this episode

1:37.5

to come out, because they just would love to hear from you. We're all huge fans of the podcast.

Thank you. Yeah, of course. As you saw, I mean everybody's first comments were like,

1:46.8

just tell her she's a badass. I don't have any questions. The badass, and she's a hero.

Thank you. Of course. I'll dive into some of my own questions first, and then we can try to get
