Show Notes

In the first installment of a compelling three-part series, hosts Shane and Gemma delve into the complex psychological terrain of abuse with Dr. Ellen Lacter, an internationally recognized expert on the devastating effects of extreme and ritual abuse. This episode offers a sobering look at the mechanisms of dissociation, a survival strategy employed by victims during overwhelming trauma, and how these fractures in consciousness can echo through an entire lifetime of aftereffects. Dr. Lacter's insights into the psychological responses to systemic abuse provide essential context for understanding the experiences of the survivors connected to the Sister Cathy case.


Who Killed Sister Cathy? is an ongoing investigation into the unsolved murder of Sister Catherine Cesnik. Subscribe and follow for new episodes.
