In this episode, Eric Skwarczynski sits down with Elizabeth McCoy, a former staff kid at Berean Baptist Church and College under Pastor Greg Neal.


In 2001, a videotape was discovered of women undressing in Neal's office.


Despite the existence of what the state attorney called "overwhelming evidence," the tape was discovered past the statute of limitations, and Neal could not be sentenced.


Later, Greg Neal would hire Cameron Giovanelli – AFTER an investigation of sexual assault involving a minor and Giovanelli was already underway. He ignored the warning of Pastor Stacey Shiflett and sought to start a new college with Giovanelli in Florida.


Greg Neal remains a pastor today.
