S6E70 | Allison Adams - Why Whistleblowers Keep Dying: One MRA Survivor Refuses to Stay Silent

Today I’m so honored to introduce you all to: Masonic Ritual Abuse Victim, Survivor and now Whistleblower for the first time, intuitive empath, entrepreneur, public speaker and improv comedian, biofeedback facilitator and educator, clean farming and nature lover, and an incredible hero coming forward to advocate for whistleblower and survivor protection and safety and to do everything in her power to facilitate the change she wishes to see in the world: Allison Adams

A little bit about Allison and what we will be discussing today:

An outsider by choice and circumstance, Allison had already walked a remarkable path long before tragedy sought her out. Diagnosed with Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy as a child, Allison was not defined by her condition - she mastered it. For 45 years, this practice became her anchor: a disciplined dance of food, sleep, mindfulness, and inner sovereignty. It wasn’t just medicine. It was her superpower.

Her days were filled with simple joys - gym friendships, hiking through the woods, lunch dates, and the deep sharing that comes with genuine connection. She befriended a woman at the gym, and never imagining that warmth and trust would be weaponized against her. For two years, she was stalked and targeted by those who used personal details against her. Then, in April 2020, came the unthinkable. On the patio of an acquaintance, she was drugged - believed to be with at least four different substances - and plunged into ten missing hours. What followed was a nightmare of ritualistic horror: terror, violation, strangulation, and hazing at the hands of a sophisticated network.

Yet here is where Allison’s light refused to be extinguished.

Even in that drugged state, her decades of biofeedback training awakened. While her body appeared unconscious, her mind remained hyper-aware - an observer in the storm. In the months and years that followed, she patiently gathered fragments: clues, memories, internal knowing. Piece by piece, she reconstructed her truth. A woman who had spent her life managing epilepsy with grace turned that same mastery toward survival and healing. She refused to let the trauma erase her. Instead, she transformed it into purpose.

She stands today as living proof that the human spirit, when anchored in practiced awareness and unyielding courage, can transcend even the most depraved evil. In a world quick to silence victims, Allison chose the opposite: she chose to speak. Her voice rises not just for herself, but powerfully for the children - the ones drugged with memory-erasing substances, who have no reference point, no adult resilience, no framework to understand the violation. That compassion, that fierce maternal fire for the innocent, reveals the true depth of her character.

Allison’s story is a rallying cry. She is still in danger. She knows the risks of going public. She has watched whistleblowers step forward only to be targeted and silenced. Yet she will not be deterred. She is demanding accountability from her community. She is calling for safety nets - shelter, support, protection - for those brave enough to expose darkness. Her message is clear and urgent: “Do what you can - but do something.”

Allison embodies the rarest kind of heroism: the quiet, relentless kind. The kind that turns personal hell into collective awakening. She reminds us that survival is not merely enduring—it is rising, speaking, organizing, and loving the vulnerable more fiercely because you know what it costs. She is proof that even after the worst humanity can offer, one woman rooted in decades of inner discipline can become a force for justice and healing.

SPEAKER_00 0:00

What's up you guys? Welcome to The Imagination. I'm your host, Demma, and today I am so honored to introduce you all to Masonic Ritual Abuse, Victim, Survivor, and now Whistleblower for the very first time, intuitive empath, entrepreneur, public speaker, an improv comedian, biofeedback facilitator and educator, clean farming and nature lover, and an incredible hero coming forward to advocate for whistleblower and survivor protection and safety, and to do everything in her power to facilitate the change she wishes to see in the world, Alison Adams. A little bit about Alison and what you guys can expect to be hearing from on today's discussion. An outsider by choice and circumstance, Alison had already walked a remarkable path long before a tragedy sought her out. Diagnosed with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy as a child, Allison was not defined by her condition. She mastered it. For 45 years, this practice became her anchor, a disciplined dance of food, sleep, mindfulness, and inner sovereignty. It wasn't just medicine, it was her superpower. Her days were filled with simple joys. Gym friendships, hiking through the woods, lunch dates, and the deep sharing that comes with genuine connection. She befriended a woman at the gym one day and never imagined that the warmth and trust she experienced would be weaponized against her. For two years, she was stopped and targeted by those who used personal details against her. Then in April 2020 came the unthinkable. On the patio of an acquaintance, she was drugged, believed to be with at least four different substances, and plunged into 10 missing hours. What followed was a nightmare of ritualistic horror, terror, violation, strangulation, and hazing at the hands of a sophisticated network. Yet here is where Alison's light refused to be extinguished. Even in that drug state, her decades of biofeedback training awakened. While her body appeared unconscious, her mind remained hyper-aware, an observer in the storm. In the months and years that followed, she patiently gathered fragments, clues, memories, and internal knowing. Piece by piece, she has reconstructed her truth. A woman who had spent her life managing epilepsy with grace turned that same mastery towards survival and healing. She refused to let the trauma erase her. Instead, she transformed it into purpose. She stands today as living proof that the human spirit, when anchored in practiced awareness and unyielding courage, can transcend even the most depraved evil. In a world quick to silence victims, Alison chose the opposite. She's choosing to speak. Her voice rises not just for herself, but powerfully for the children, the ones drugged with memory-erasing substances who have no reference point, no adult resilience, no framework to understand the violation. That compassion, that fierce maternal fire for the innocent, reveals the depth of Allison's true character. Her story is a rallying cry. She's still in danger. She knows the risk of going public. She has watched whistleblowers step forward only to be targeted and silenced. Yet she will not be deterred. She is demanding accountability from her community. She is calling for safety, shelter, support, and protection for those brave enough to expose the darkness. Her message is clear and urgent. Do what you can, but do something. Alison embodies the rarest kind of heroism, the quiet, relentless kind, the kind that turns personal hell into collective awakening. She reminds us that survival is not merely enduring, it is rising, speaking, organizing, and loving the vulnerable more fiercely because you know what it costs. She is proof that even after the worst humanity can offer, one woman rooted in decades of inner discipline can become a force of justice and healing. So you guys, without further ado, please help me in welcoming today's guest of honor, Survivor and Thriver, Survivor Advocate, Walking Miracle, Courageous, Passionate Purvey of Truth, Voice for the Voiceless, my dear friend, and the brightest light in the darkness, Alison Adams. Alison, it is an honor to have you on today. Thank you so much for being here with us.

SPEAKER_01 4:42

Thank you, Emma. That was beautiful. Thank you for that introduction.

SPEAKER_00 4:46

I'm really grateful that you're here today. We've been talking for a little while, and this is the time to share this testimony. I really feel that. I think your testimony is unique in a lot of ways, but it's also very unifying with your passion for explaining what not just what you went through, but how you've recovered from it, your path to remembering. And then ultimately you giving a voice to others and creating this battle cry that we all need to come together as a community. And I think of all the times in history, now is the time for that cry, for that demand, and for accountability for what's been done to you and others. So I'm really excited to have you on and for people to hear about not just what you went through, but your mission and what it is that that's made you come forward as the whistleblower. So I thought we'd start off with that. And, you know, you dealt with this years ago and could have decided to never come forward ever. And I'm just curious, and uh I wanted to ask you, what made you want to come forward now? And what is your mission for coming forward? And why did you decide that you wanted to be a public whistleblower instead of just dealing with this in the background?

SPEAKER_01 5:56

Great question. And I don't think I ever wanted to be a public whistleblower, but I got mad. Um I guess several things happened. I am watching people come forward and die, like lose their life over it. And that's terrible. But also I am um an avid truth seeker. It's who I am, and I'm constantly looking for truth. And I spend time on Twitter. I love to get information on Twitter. And my Twitter feed will be um victims and people coming forward, but then on the other half, I'll have people demanding disclosure and we want answers, we want names, we want this, and I understand um I'm trying to merge those two worlds because people do want disclosure, but this is disclosure, you know. I've kind of learned that um it's us, you know, and we got to move forward. And I need that digital army to get out there and spread this message and fight, fight the bad guys, you know. We this is they're sneaky and they um prey on the innocent, and that's not right. We need to stop it.

SPEAKER_00 7:09

Yes, I completely agree. And I think the same thing. I look through my comments, whether on YouTube or social media, and although it's really great that people want more information, they want to know names. People are genuinely mad. I think a lot of the asks that people have and the demands, it's coming from a good place. It's just because we're so ill trauma informed in society and so ignorant in a lot of ways to the actual realities of not just what someone like you went through, but the cost of coming forward and what that means. The person that's listening can listen to it. They can go forget about it five minutes later, go eat dinner with their family, go live life. And the person that they just heard the disclosure from, their life has changed forever. The cost that they have to pay for that could be their life. And sometimes it is. And I know we're gonna talk about that a little bit more today, but you know, I think part of disclosure is what you're doing, educating people on what that cost is and why, in order for a whistleblower to come forward, it shouldn't just be this freebie of everybody gets to be entertained for a moment, listening to a testimony, and then moves on with their life. There should be accountability, there should be protection in place and some sort of safety net for that person. Um, I had a comment the other day where somebody said, Why doesn't this person just go into witness protection? And I'm like, There is no witness protection for crime is so heinous.

SPEAKER_01 8:38

And I think that's also part of as a society, we've all kind of been mind controlled um and desensitized, unfortunately. You know, um, a lot of times this subject comes up in your mind, whoop, you know, it's it's hard to listen to, it's not easy. And, you know, it's easy to change that channel and and not want to hear it because I I don't like the subject. This is dark. I don't like talking about it, you know, but we have to, and it's time to get it out.

SPEAKER_00 9:06

I agree. And you were so kind to put together a slideshow for us to help guide us through some topics that you're gonna be talking about today. So, did you want me to bring that up and we can start? Yeah, let's bring it up.

SPEAKER_01 9:18

Okay, we'll start.

SPEAKER_00 9:21

And I love what you titled it, Exposing Dark Forces, a survivor story.

SPEAKER_01 9:26

Yes, yeah, for sure. There's dark forces and um they're powerful. And you know, when I first before I got pulled into this, I always just thought it was something that happened elsewhere. And um even being educated, I'll kind of go, I'll I'll bring this up again as I tell my story. But I was seeing these people and I think, oh, but these are the only nice ones. You know, I've heard that this could be bad, but I would justify it every single time that, oh, it doesn't happen in my world. Well, it did, it happened in my world. And um I want to tell my story to protect all of the listeners today, to um not fall into the same trap I did. So let's go to the next, let's start with the whistleblowers. This is what got me mad. Let's move on to um the first slide and it's a David Wilcock. Um, I consider him the king of all whistleblowers. Uh I in 2016, I had a lot of time on my hands. I had just left a high-powered world and I moved to a rural area. My life just went completely changed in 2016. And I started binge watching on Gaia Network, this show called Wisdom Teachings from David Wilcock. I watched hours and hours, days and days of it. But what he was doing essentially was he was given the Dark Forces playbook. And he would, I um, I the information he I heard saved my life. But um it was remarkable. So uh David I think 2016 was his prime. I think we all kind of watched him go through a demise towards the end. His his um speaking wasn't as proficient as it was at one time, and he'd kind of ramble and he had health issues and openly talked about financial issues. Um and he I would watch his podcast, he would um, you know, ask, I he would talk about being in need, but I would watch it and I didn't. This is David Wilcock, you know, people are giving him money, he's okay. I didn't understand until his life was gone. And then I could see his desperation a lot more. And, you know, we just think everybody's okay, especially someone like David Wilcock. He's that tinfoil hat guy, you know, he's talks about it. If you go back and look at his breath of work, it's remarkable what he's done to disclose um a bunch of stuff, but the dark forces.

SPEAKER_00 12:08

And I was telling you before we started recording um and we were messaging earlier, I didn't realize that he followed me on Twitter. And I discovered that after he passed, I was looking at his profile and I realized, oh my gosh, this guy followed me.

SPEAKER_01 12:22

And it made me wonder was he a mind control victim or was there something that he didn't disclose before he passed away that he went through as a child and maybe into adulthood, and and who knows, you know, but like he's um, I think there's a lot left that we we don't know, honestly. But I did recently see a clip of him. Um, and he kind of was talking about it was one of his final days, maybe even like the month or the weeks before his passing. But he um said, you know, I'm broke. He said I'm even starving. He said, I've got cancer. And he even said I was drugged and raped. Um, and so I um I'd love to see that clip. If somebody's more IT than I am, you can post it in the comments. But um, we don't know what people go through. And I I think I the mind control, where I, you know, obviously that's beyond my wheelhouse, but it happens, you know.

SPEAKER_00 13:24

Yes, absolutely. And it is, you know, you look at him here, you'd never imagine the person that we're seeing on this photo that you posted of him had trauma in his background. He looks happy. You know, the outward look that a lot of people have that have gone through really hard things isn't the look of somebody who went through extreme trauma or is going through a hard time or who's starving or can't pay their bills, you know. And yeah, it really sort of like it puts a shockwave through you whenever we lose somebody like him and realize wow, there was so much going on that we never saw in those those videos that he put out and in in his interviews. And, you know, there was a whole life that he was living behind the scenes that we didn't know about because he was so passionate just about helping other people.

SPEAKER_01 14:09

Yeah, he he was a genius, he absolute genius. But he could also, we're all susceptible to being unknowingly drugged. And then what happens during that time, you know, what kind of programs are going into you, you know, we don't know.

SPEAKER_00 14:24

Yes, 100%.

SPEAKER_01 14:26

Yeah. And the next one, this one was so sad. She is a was a brilliant scientist. She lives in Huntsville, Alabama. And um I watched her on a I didn't follow her very much. I just kind of started following her right before she also has was suicided. Um she came out openly, very open in the days leading up to her passing, that um she was being targeted. She said that um on video, people break into my house every single day. And she she was working on free energy. Um but she was scared. And again, I guess everybody thought, oh, brilliant scientist. At one point, the interview that I saw, she said, I'm in this crappy apartment, and she was being followed by cars, and apparently, like there was a black Lexus in the parking lot, and she said, I knew it wasn't the apartment complex because we don't have cars like that in this apartment complex. But again, her resources were gone. Like she was to be targeted is terrible enough, but to not have any resources and the other team has so much resources, you're kind of a sitting duck. And in her interview, again, I'd like to bring that up to show everybody, it really pulled up my heartstrings because she told everybody she was desperate. She told every, you know, on film she said, I'm having to go forward because uh I'm scared, you know. That was hard.

SPEAKER_00 15:59

And we see that so much, like, you know, whether it's just in the moment somebody's really suffering and they're sharing that, like I am just going through so much and I don't have a therapist, I don't have anybody that believes me, or it's I'm being severely targeted, I'm worried for my life, you know, and it's really sad, sort of the lack of of people that see something like that, and like rush to action to do something. And I don't know what that is. I don't know if that's just people thinking, I'm just one person, what can I do? Like, I can't go save all these people. Or if it's scared, or if they're like the government's gonna do something about it.

SPEAKER_01 16:33

To start some sort of whistleblower fund that, you know, when we see these people, they're brave enough to speak out, they are open, hey, I'm I'm getting targeted, and then they pass anyways. Like I hate just watching that. Can can we figure something out? I don't know what it looks like, but it can't go on like this. We can't keep seeing people in danger and not helping them.

SPEAKER_00 16:57

I agree, because then it's like once they're gone, we have all these solutions. Well, we should have done this and we should have done that. And it's like, yes, and we could have done all that, but nobody did.

SPEAKER_01 17:06

I know, I know it's so hard. And you know, obviously the people that have cried wolf in the past and and and lied about it, or they have uh they're looking for just material gains or an easy way out, you know, this that. But I guess watch the story is I guess what I would tell the listeners. Um, watch all these stories, and you know, you can kind of hear the truth in your heart when you when you watch these and take action. I don't know what kind of action it takes, but if you can donate anything, um, cash, you know, IT help, because a lot of us are targeted through IT, admin help or just anything. Hey, I've got this skill. Would this help? You know, who knows? We don't know, but um just any kind of action would go a long way. And then I think we kind of talked a little bit about the MKUltra, but as a society, we've been taught to blame the victim. Well, we rake them over the coals and we analyze they have, oh, they weren't perfect, they had this stain, okay, they're out, you know, nobody's perfect. Um, but um, we can't keep it. I kind of think of it almost like the sacred feminine, you know, um, they're slut and whores and they deserved it. It's a terrible thing to say, but that mentality unfortunately is out there.

SPEAKER_00 18:25

Absolutely. And you did bring up a good point, and I hope that that resonated with people who are like, gosh, I have a family, I have a business, I'm I'm so busy. Like, how am I supposed to go save somebody or help? It doesn't have to be that. It can be as easy as donating $5 instead of going to Starbucks or donating donating your skill, like you said, something you're already doing. You could spend, you know, an hour a week donating it to a survivor or somebody who needs it, you know. That's such a good way to put that. And I hope that that resonates with people who feel helpless or like write it off because you know, they can't go save people, they can't save the world, and they look at it like they have to be all in on something. And you don't have to be, you know, you can have to be at all if you make a defensive.

SPEAKER_01 19:08

Even like um a dollar and just a kind note, like, oh my god, your story, I I heard it, you know, I'm rooting for you, you're in my prayers, that's all. But if you can do more, you know, that would be amazing. A lot of these, a common theme that I've seen with whistleblowers is I need a safe place, like I need safe lodging, you know, I need to get out a dodge. And also I I need to help clear my IT. Like, can somebody not allow this perpetrator to follow me and link into me at any time, you know? And those are skills our community has, you know, there might even be some, you know, whatever it is, but that it's important. We have to it's a call for action to do anything.

SPEAKER_00 19:56

I couldn't agree more. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 20:00

Virginia, this one. Um I have as you can see in that picture, that's a picture of her, I think that's on the left as a child. You know, she was so innocent. Her her innocent was robbed. And I don't know, I haven't heard her story told. I don't know how to say this. When her story came out, you know, hello, Prince Andrew participated. You know, it's about as high a level as you can go. Um I heard, and this wasn't isn't to criticize my friend that said it, but this is the again, the mentality that is keeping this moving forward and going. At one point in an interview, Virginia said that um Juline, I guess I'm saying her name right, hey, go do for Prince Andrew what you did for Jeffrey Epstein or something like that. She said those words in an interview. And um my friend was saying it was kind of like, well, she had a choice, like that's not so bad, you know, like and those were the words that she got out. However, you know the nightmare was 10 times worse than that. And just to be able to say the words, you're brave, and you might not be able to articulate the entire pain. Um, but as people looking from the outside, we should have lifted her up on a pedestal just for saying it. You know, maybe it didn't come out as extreme as it happened. And, you know, I don't know what it was. But, anyways, that's what that one was about. Um, that's why I put her up there. She inspired me. And at the same time, I want to defend her because she was such an innocent child. And the whole thing on the victim becomes a victim again and is criticized. I personally saw that a little bit when she. Came out and it saddened me.

SPEAKER_00 22:02

And I think too, if you read between the lines on some of her personal disclosures and even the last, I believe it was the last recorded message that was released of her talking about her fear of being targeted and things like that. She had said at the end that she talked about a kill switch that was going to be activated on her, which to me sounds a lot like something that is a little bit more sophisticated than maybe some of the um the disclosures that we knew that she went through. I think there was definitely a lot more to her story that got buried with her. You know, a kill switch is something a lot of MK Ultra survivors talk about. Exactly.

SPEAKER_01 22:40

And I'm also in that category. I'm holding back information today. I'm gonna try to tell my story, but I'm afraid for my life. Y'all will hear, you'll hear why. And um I I'm not releasing all the information because I need to protect myself and my loved ones. I I want to make sure retaliation doesn't happen because I'm talking to y'all today.

SPEAKER_00 23:02

100%.

SPEAKER_01 23:05

Madison, this was so sad. Like this just happened. Um, I think you were a lot closer to her. Um, but she was so brave. And disclosure doesn't get any louder than that. Oh my God, she was, you know, Steve Jobs and like her father and the the what was the company, Pizza Link, you know, it was all there. And once again, she wasn't protected. She came forward and unfortunately she lost her life for it. And this is the one where I was like, okay, I'm going forward. This is the one where I was finally like, I can't just sit and watch anymore. I'm gonna stand up, I'm gonna tell my story because I'm really tired of seeing this happen over and over again.

SPEAKER_00 23:50

If nothing else, she would she would be really happy to hear that. I know it's it's devastating what happened to her, but she was the bravest person. I mean, didn't come out with a fake name like a lot of people do, and I understand why people do, but she just her full name of me, her family's real name. She called out every single name, every single company. There was, she was just all in. She was like, I'm gonna go. I couldn't believe it.

SPEAKER_01 24:18

Yeah, I couldn't either. I couldn't either, and so bad. I know our truth community that we just don't know what to do. You know, we should have surrounded that angel and um and kept her safe, you know. I wish there was a place like that, and maybe this conversation can lead to that.

SPEAKER_00 24:37

I completely agree, and I really appreciate you honoring her because she definitely she deserves it, you know, and she was one of the more recent ones along with David Wilcox. So it's it's good that people can see that this isn't just a conspiracy we're talking about where people were, you know, quote unquote unalived or off to, you know, back in the 80s and 90s, you know, this is this is happening today in in droves and they're silencing it. You know, Madison doesn't get a an international write-up or David Wilcox, like, you know, some other people who go missing. Um, even Amy Aldrich, like it's really great that that people are aware of who she is, you know, but it's like we need that for everybody. Like there should be it should be national, international news every single time one of these people loses their lives. And we need to be aware that it's happening. And unfortunately, these families and people surrounding the whistleblowers, they do everything they can to bury the story and to bury, you know, bury it with the person that's no longer here. And so it is really important that we keep their stories alive by continuing to share what they did and to honor them and to say their names so people know who they were. So thank you for doing that with all of them.

SPEAKER_01 25:45

Oh, you're welcome. And it is so important because again, these perpetrators, they're gonna take the path of least resistance. And as a community, if we don't let Madison's name just be swept under the rug, we want now she came forward. Let's amplify her message, let's have the opposite effect. Let's um let's get our loudspeaker out and demand uh retribution for that.

SPEAKER_00 26:14

Amen. I completely agree with you.

SPEAKER_01 26:16

Um this slide is just there's nowhere to go. If you're a victim and especially a victim of this type of crime is so heinous that the average person can't even comprehend. Um there's nowhere to go for help, even professional helps, police stations, teachers, psychologists, um, friends and family. They it's not that they don't want to believe you, but the story is so outrageous. You know, there's no support system. And a lot of times these victims, they have to, they're stepping out of an abusive situation, but typically it's their entire world. It's not just one perpetrator, friends and family and everybody, they have to get up and go. And anyway, it's there's no safe place. I have found there's not a witness protection program. There's not um anywhere to go when this happens. And again, that's another thing that I want to speak out about because that needs to change.

SPEAKER_00 27:26

You're so right. And I don't think the normal person that didn't go through something like this, I mean, it's all so difficult for somebody to try to comprehend. But I think this part too, people can't imagine that just talking about something that you went through could cost you everything that you've ever owned, everything that you could have been given, everything that that you've acquired your entire life, that speaking out the cost of that is you walk away from all of that, including every single family member pretty much, and everybody that was in your life. A lot of times these whistleblowers, you know, them speaking out cost them complete abandonment from every single member of their family, every friend that they grew up with. They walk away from inheritances, they walk away from jobs that they were being trained for and greened for that would position them to be in a good place for the rest of their life. They walk away from having housing, they walk away from having a car, they walk away a lot of times from even having an identity because all of that is controlled by the people that are in the family, even banking and things like that. So it's literally a lot of people that speak out and being homeless. And I think you lose everything. Because for the normal person, if we go talk to a friend about something bad that happened to us, like we don't lose anything. We might just, you know, we might feel a bit better, still be sad. But like usually in real life, if you talk about something that you went through for the normal person that didn't go through this type of trauma, there's not any loss, you know, besides just having a secret. You you shared it with somebody where this literally costs everything for somebody to come forward and talk about it.

SPEAKER_01 28:57

It's such a it's such an unbelievable topic. And it's if you pick the wrong person to talk to, they're gonna give you that face, you know, and you're gonna be victimized all over again. You're not gonna be believed, you're gonna be thought to be crazy, and um uh that's as traumatizing, you know, where there's not anywhere to go to talk about it, you know, and that's it's hard.

SPEAKER_00 29:22

I couldn't even imagine. Like, I'm not a victim of any of this, I'm not a survivor of it, but I just think about the times that I've gone through hard things, whether it was like a family member dying or a bad breakup, and you go and tell a friend about it and like how comforting that is for somebody to just sit there with you and listen. I couldn't imagine a friend being like, Oh, I don't believe you, you didn't go through that. It's like, what do you mean I didn't go through that? Yes, I did.

SPEAKER_01 29:43

And and you know, I'll I'll I think people want to hear it, but it's it's again that shut off, you know, and and they might not say, I don't believe you, but you could see it on their face, you know, that there's a difference, but it's um I a lot of victims just suffer in silence, you know, it's easier to, and um it's the crime goes on and on and on, you know, you'll you go through the crime, but then the crime continues.

SPEAKER_00 30:11

Absolutely.

SPEAKER_01 30:15

Just a call for help, you know. We gotta get active, guys. Um, share this video, like the video. Um, if you can buy a coffee for me, that would be amazing. Um and not just for me, anybody out there, you know, use your discernment, watch this. Uh, but let's get the word out. Let's help these people.

unknown 30:34

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 30:35

And I like even how you said every like helps sharing truth, spread truth. You know, that's easy. We can go online and like you, how like you said in your feed, you follow a lot of survivors and whistleblowers, and you can just go through and like their post to help them get visibility, and it takes you one second each to do that. You know, it's not difficult. We're already on our phones, we're already on social media, sharing and liking and commenting just to help somebody get visibility and to show support. It's free, it's easy, and it takes two seconds.

SPEAKER_01 31:03

Exactly. And if if you watch this whole video, if you're watching till now, congratulations. You know, that's amazing. But uh share it and say, hey, did you if you learned something, tell people what you learned, if you found something interesting, share it, comment, you know. Let's get this word out. That's the only way we're gonna defeat the dark forces. Yes.

SPEAKER_00 31:24

And do you personally have a buy me a coffee link or something that we can link under the show notes if people feel called to help your mission?

SPEAKER_01 31:33

I would love that. That would be wonderful. I just am in the process of getting a buy me a coffee. So um I will send it to you and we'll link that.

SPEAKER_00 31:41

Perfect. Awesome. People really love that.

SPEAKER_01 31:44

Um, all right. So this is dark. We're getting into the story, getting into the darkness, but I wanted to talk about how sophisticated this is. Because when I first heard about, if I would have thought about a satanic individual, I would have just thought, oh, some goth high school weirdo, and this person got trapped in that bad situation. I didn't know how big it was, I didn't know how organized it was and sophisticated. And so I'm I I posted my next slide if you want to go ahead and click on to that. This is an actual satanic uh calendar of events, and this is only just a few months that I'm showing. And uh I I don't know if you can read, but there's all different kinds. There's blood rituals, there's um, you know, death rituals, there's um abduction rituals, and there's all different categories for the um victim to be in. And I can remember I watched um a thing on Madison, and she was talking about the rituals and what her father made her do. And one of the things she said was, he made me pick who lived or who died. But these calendars are literally the victim is being picked years in advance to maybe, you know, they're identified and they're groomed, and it's a very sophisticated, you don't, it's not just a one person, it's an organization.

unknown 33:19

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 33:20

And if I'm not mistaken, the date that you experienced your trauma and your traumatic event was on the side that we're looking at.

SPEAKER_01 33:28

It was, yes. Um, I had already identified I before I saw this calendar, I saw it after the fact, but it spoke to me. I I had already identified um what it was I knew there was a ritual abuse. I didn't, but I anyways, yeah, I'd already identified, and then when I saw this, um I can't read it, but I can zoom in and kind of read it. Um it was called it was the the time that this ritual that I took place, it was in the at the end of April. The ritual is called the Grand Climax. Um and it gives a little bit of of what it was about, but on the on the end category, you see the people's age. And this one is the only one that goes to 25. These sick people normally go for children. And obviously, I at the time I was older than 25, but I I was uh used in that ceremony.

SPEAKER_00 34:31

And I appreciate you relating this to your story and for sharing some of these other dates. This time of the year that you showed here April, May, June, um, and even before that, going into the holidays, you know, the beginning of the year and end of the year before, the first half of the year is usually just really, really difficult for survivors. You know, it's kind of like a ritual abuse season. And unfortunately, because society doesn't know about it, you know, we're not helping survivors through those times either. And we look at things like Easter and holidays, and we're celebrating, and then behind the scenes, you know, there's these horrific things happening, like what we see here from you know, the darkness that are doing this. And so it's it's really, really sick and twisted.

SPEAKER_01 35:18

Sick and twisted, and um like these holidays, but then also the big event Super Bowl is apparently another big one, you know, the things that we celebrate, unfortunately they do too, and they celebrate differently than we do. Yeah, I had a friend, um, you know, once you see it, you can't unsee it, and then once you see it, it it's you hear about it more often. And since that time, I'll just tell this one story on this calendar because I um ran into somebody, he was in his 50s, and um I would say he was like an 80s rock and roller, you know, he blasts the music and he would, I wouldn't call him a party animal, but maybe a party animal. He spent his life being a very solid drinker, you know, it was a part of his life, and you know, a couple of beers with dinner was normal and it was a daily event. Well, he went into um a restaurant, actually close to the one that was involved with mine that we'll get to, but uh had a couple of beers and he doesn't remember leaving. And after a lifetime of drinking, that had never happened. He had not he's always got himself home okay. And after this, he didn't remember leaving the restaurant. His first memory came about um as he was driving a car over a hundred miles away. And one of the categories on this calendar is um abduction. And so maybe he ran into somebody and they needed to get their abduction badge. I don't know how it works, but something like that. You know, I believe he was a victim of this same thing, and it was an abduction that happened to him, but it's all different, it's not just one thing. What happened to me will be different than what happened to someone else. We all have different experiences.

SPEAKER_00 37:16

Yes, you're so right. One testimony that always stands out in my head, talking about um Halloween, is Lisa Meister, who I interviewed. She's a satanic rotal abuse survivor, and she had said the cult that she belonged to would begin abducting children and collecting children months before Halloween, and they would keep them in these underground um like basements locked up, and they would be collecting those children for months before the actual ceremony. So it is, it's it's something they take very, very seriously, and it's something it is some of the and I mean that's just one cult that she's talking about. Think about all of them abducting tons of children and hiding them, like this is happening all over the world, and so it's all over the world.

SPEAKER_01 38:02

It's I I haven't kept up with a statistic, but it's something like a million children are abducted or lost, especially through the child protective searches services. We lose children, like again, like call for action. That's unacceptable. Like it's I know it's being done, you know. I know we talk about it, but we don't hear we hear, okay, this was a rescue happened here, or rescue happened here, but we don't hear enough about it. We need to get angry as a society.

SPEAKER_00 38:37

Completely agree.

SPEAKER_01 38:39

Fight, flight, freeze, or fawn, these are important. And as my trauma came out, I was so happy to learn these words because I was experiencing them, but I didn't fully understand it. And this was when I could have a vocabulary word. You know, 50 something years, my my life and my reactions were normal. And then after this event, I I had extreme panic attacks, my hair went curly. Um, it completely changed overnight. But the free, I when originally right after it happened, I was very in the freeze mode. Um, but it's important to understand these reactions. If someone you love or um somebody's having extreme panic attacks, it's important to understand fight, flight, freeze, spawn. And fight, obviously, you want to punch somebody. That one fighting wasn't my natural to come out. I understand that sometimes one of these will be the strongest. For me, it was freeze and it was um flight. I need to get out of here. I need to get out. I had the urge to run for my life, but I didn't have anywhere to go. And that was hard. And then the fawning is the victims have to go along with it to save their life. You know, a lot of times this happens during the rape or um the ceremony. Well, if I play along, it's not gonna be as bad, you know, or also afterwards, but we fawn. We we there's no right way to get out of this. And um, I believe the night that I had the missing hours, there was a lot of fun. I I I went along with some things to try to save my life.

unknown 40:24

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 40:25

And it's good to know that that these are normal responses, that it wasn't us doing something wrong when we reacted these ways. It's really hard to, we can prep all we want just in our imaginations or just thinking about, well, if I were to go through this, what would I do? Well, I would do this and I would do this. And it's very different when you're in the moment. And all of these are okay. Of course, there's some that might keep you safer than others, like if you're being robbed, you might want to try to run, you know, but just because you don't doesn't mean that you reacted wrong to trauma. That's a normal response to freeze or to fawn, you know. And and I think that that's good to empower people with because I think that's where some of the shame and guilt comes from sometimes is how we react to things and thinking back and being like, I wish I would have done this, or if it happened to me now, I would do this, you know. And it's just good to know that there's no right or wrong way. We we learn after we and we can heal and and respond differently, but in moments, you know, we can't predict how we'll how we'll react, and there's no wrong way to face horrific circumstances.

SPEAKER_01 41:25

Yeah, horrific. And and you it doesn't make any sense. Like I can remember going over to someone's house, it was just a casual, and I just went completely stiff, sweating, you know, I was terrified. My hands actually went to my throat, like grasping, my body was all weird, and I left thinking, Allison, like what was wrong? I was a little embarrassed, you know, about you know, how I acted in front of these people. But it's a detective, you you put it together, and for me, all of these re-resources aren't rational resources, they've all come out, and then I've had to try to figure out what's going on. You know, this isn't Allison as I know her. But this is my story. Um, I've stayed silent since uh the spring of 2020. That's when this happened. And I've planned on coming forward. In fact, Emma, you and I have talked for several years. A few uh I think it was about two years ago, I wanted to share the story. And then I was like got scared. And I'm like, sorry, I can't. I need to get out of town before I could tell the story. And I've been trying, I'm still in the town where this happened, and I still do need to get out of this town. I'm not safe here. Um, okay. Now this kind of gets into what happened. So Lee, I um there were two events I want to talk about before the actual event that happened, but leading up to it and how I got caught, and I kind of want to talk about those two years where I was hunted and um explain kind of that. And I also oh wait, so I'll just start. It I was living in a small town and going to I started this whole thing started because I went to the gym and there was a workout class that I loved. And I um it was a silly class. And being in a small town, for some reason the teacher had to get six people participants before the class could be paid. And I loved the class we were on, um trampoline shoes, like those like metal jump shoes. And it was a class, and the teacher was a genius. This whole thing had to be choreographed, and you would get them the you did, anyways. It was this silly class that I loved. And a lady came in, and I and I was so happy that she came in because it was an extra person. And a lot of people didn't like this class because it was just unusual, and they were jumping and made them. P or something like that. I don't know, but it nobody liked it. And um this girl lady came in and she was an ex-1980s Ivy League cheerleader. And she totally figured out the class and she loved the choreography and she liked it as much as I did. And that was the woman that um this whole thing started from. And I still to this day believe she was not her heart was pure, and she was delivering as we got to know each other, she was delivering information to her husband unknowingly. She did not know how bad he was. Um, but I'll just start a little bit about the background. I'm gonna call that lady Betsy and her husband Paul. And so Betsy and I met in this class, and then we started going out and having coffee afterwards, and then we started hiking together. I'm living at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. It's the most beautiful granite, raw, clean water, and the hiking is incredible. And as it turned out, my life had just slowed down because I had left work and I was just kind of looking for people to hang out with. And the same thing happened with her because she had just semi-retired, and so she was looking for people to hang out with. And so we started loving hiking together. Because hiking is kind of funny because sometimes people don't hike at the same pace, you know, and they don't some people like a 20-mile hike or some people like a one mile hike. Well, this lady and I were very compatible for our hiking. We both like four or five miles and we both like the same pace, but we'd stop and have picnics and kind of enjoy, but we wouldn't just we were trying to get a workout too, you know. It was we were very compatible with our working out. And so as we're in the woods together, there's something so soulful when you're in the woods and you're miles from we didn't have anything, you know, around us, and we just would share stories would come up. Oh, if I told you about this, and we hiked hundreds of miles together, hundreds, and so all kinds of stories came out as we were telling. And at first, I'm gonna tell you what came out about her family, but first a little bit more about her and her husband that I feel like is important to the story. They met in college for um, he was uh a big wig at his fraternity, and she would tell me he was the head hazer at that fraternity. Um so for rush and things like that, how fraternity they have like things called Hell Week or something. Well, this guy was notoriously a terrible, very mean hazer to the pledglings that came forward. And my friend was a cheerleader, and still to this day, she told me that when the cheerleaders want to get together, and if it's the women and the husbands, the husbands hate this man. Even though that happened 50 years ago or whatever happened in college, these men are still traumatized to they just think he's the devil. Um another thing about this man was uh pillar of the community. He worked at Coca-Cola, he was the youth leader, he was um uh she was a teacher. They they were pillars of the community, is the only way I know how to say it. Um you'd never expect ever. The um she also told me that at one point, after her, I guess her call her kids got big, maybe they couldn't youth minister anymore. I don't really know how it works. And I I have never been a part of any church, much less the Catholic Church, but I have a very strong religion and a very strong faith in the Lord. But she told me that at one, it was about probably 10 years ago now when I was hiking, it was probably five or six years that he made the decision to go and become an ordained minister with the Catholic Church. And I thought it was interesting because she told me the story that it was very traumatic for her. And at one point they had like a retreat off-site retreat that they had to do some sort of ceremony for his kind of graduation, and in that ceremony, she had to admit that the church, her role as his wife is now diminished because of the church, and it was almost like he was married to the church now, and she became secondary, and she had divorced that was part of the ceremony, and she was devastated. She said she cried and cried, and it almost didn't happen. But just again, so he was um he became a minister, and in the town that I live, he was very active at the church. Apparently, the minister that was in charge, or the preacher, I don't know what they call at Catholic, I'm probably butchering all the words, but um, this man was the one that stood in front of the congregation in his robes and delivered the Sunday message often. Like it did it happen quite often. Um so I'm trying to fall into place. I'm gonna tell this is the slide. We're not going by the slides anymore, but if I lose my place, I might ask for them, but I'll just keep going.

SPEAKER_02 49:52

Sure.

SPEAKER_01 49:53

I um I heard some horrible information, and this is one of everybody needs to take a deep breath. And this is disclosure, and this is what is terrible to hear. But this is I I have two things that happened to me leading up to me being caught, and I'll tell this one first, and then I'll tell the second one of I want to before I tell how I got caught, I want to tell the traps that were set, and I escaped several traps, but I was finally caught, unfortunately. Um, but this is kind of this woman told me this, and this is all hearsay, but it's terrible, okay? And it involves a child and it's hard for me to talk about, it's dark. She told me that the um start of it. So this all this information came out as I was hiking. Um, and it wasn't fluid like the whole story, like I'm telling you. I got a piece of it, and then maybe a couple of weeks later, I got another piece and I got another piece. And finally, I'm like, I had to sit down with her and call her out on it and say, This, you need to take action. This is really bad. And so, and then I believe I was already being targeted at that time, but after I called it out that she needs to take action, and I basically called out the husband, it got worse for me. Um, and I'll I'll I'll go there. But what basically she said, and I'll start with the I'm gonna say things, I'll say the whole list and I won't say what I think, but it started off kind of benign. I remember her telling me a story about when her daughter was little, and I didn't think anything of it when she told me this. But when you hear the other things on top of this, it starts to paint a picture. But I can remember her telling me that her daughter was traumatized to go to the bathroom and was had had frequent um uh uh infections, and specifically when the little girl had to have a bowel movement, she'd scream and cry. It was it was a terrible experience, and she'd say, Mom, it's gonna hurt, it's gonna hurt. But I understand that that's a um a child's way of dealing with some of the trauma they've experienced. But then the woman, Betsy and Paul had a granddaughter, and the first thing I can remember Betsy telling me is um showing me videos of the granddaughter having outrageous temper tantrums. I know that sounds but just extreme burst of crying that the mother didn't know what to do with. And she even showed me a video of it, and I was I didn't think much of that story. And then I can remember her showing me a video, and at the time it was inappropriate, but I didn't react. I just kind of was like, huh, that's weird, but I didn't judge it at that point. But the picture was this little girl, she was about three, she didn't have clothes on, and she was walking in high heels and kind of fell, but kind of looked like she meant to fall, and the video was facing her rear end, and it was very inappropriate. Like, in my opinion, the child was way too old to be shown without clothes. As I look back now, I think again, this is part of the culture, and maybe her husband was sharing those videos, and this woman was just numb to it because I don't think at all the the white the Betsy believed what was really happening, but it gets worse from there. So the stories continued that she had, and I do remember her telling me the child had a very uh her vagin, her vaginal smell, a bad smell came out. And that's not again normal for a three-year-old. Um, that's alarming, and urinary tract infections. Um, that was bad, but then we need to get to um I'm still listening to all these things, but I haven't put the pieces together yet until she told me about she was giving her granddaughter a bath. And the little girl looked up at her and said, Are you gonna hurt me? And um my friend said, Of course not. Why would I hurt you? You know, no, I'm not gonna hurt you. And the little girl said, Well, Bubby put something hard in my gina, and she told me this. And so um, horrible, it gets worse from there. And then I can remember she also told me on a separate all of these things are separate. She also told me that she was they were around the kitchen table and they were doing an activity, like maybe the kids were coloring or something like that. And the little girl asked in front of her mom, it was mom, grandma, and then I think the two kids. And the little girl asked her mom or her grandmother, something about how do I how do I tell people not to touch me, or something like that. And the the grandmother said, Well, you tell them that they don't have authority to touch you, or it was something she gave her um a phrase to say, and the little girl repeated it almost for hours. You do not have authority to touch me. You do not have, I mean, telling, that's telling. Um then the final one where I was just like, this is terrible. So the bath happened, Bubby put something hard, and then um the next thing she told me was the family came to their house, mother, father, and at that point it was two um children, this little girl, and then she had a younger brother. And as they tell the story, it's so disturbing. But to me, what it sounded like was the little girl was getting punished for telling the grandmother what happened in the bath. And they got the little girl, and the parents instructed the grandmother to put cream on her bottom, and then it had to air dry. And so I think that she was also instructed to put a video in, like put the cream on the little girl's bottom and put a video in and let the air dry it. And the bottom was bright red, and um she explained how she put the the videotape in for the little girl to watch cartoons while this was happening, and she the little girl didn't have any clothes, and the father sat the grandfather, Paul sat on the couch and um watched, I guess, and then my friend told me he finally felt sorry for her and gave her a blanket disgusting and horrible and weird, yeah, but that's what I heard, and I was devastated and I was terrified, and I put it all together. Those clues are terrible. And um I took my friend out to lunch, and I I'm not gonna call her a friend anymore. I took the woman out to lunch, and I looked at her and I said, You gotta protect your grandbaby, like this is bad. And I I put the clues together for her. I repeated, I said, You've told me this and you've told me this and you've told me this. You need to take action. She needs to get away from her grandfather. And um that was the last of our friendship. But when I said that, I'll never forget the look on her face. It was like she was a robot and she just disappeared. She couldn't handle my words, she couldn't have a conversation about it. Her eyes even changed, she just froze in place, and so that scared the daylights out of me that I knew that, you know, and I didn't know what to do with that information. And I looked and I everybody again, our society protects the victims. I I knew this and I was terrified for that little girl. And everybody, if I could go and tell my story, what I heard, it's just hearsay. It doesn't matter, it wouldn't protect the little girl at all. Um, so that's pretty devastating. Uh, I've got another story. Um, changing stories. Do you have any questions?

SPEAKER_00 58:58

No, I'm just sorry you had to be exposed to that. That had have made you feel so helpless being somebody who cares so much and like not being able to do anything, even though you can tell something really, really bad is happening. You have such a big heart. I'm sure that really weighed on you. And I appreciate you sharing that with us, and then you know, also being there and and trying to be a voice for that little girl. It's really sad that her own family couldn't be.

SPEAKER_01 59:23

Horrible. And but and again, it walks among us. Like that's we have to shed, we have to tell these horrible stories because you think that would never happen. And if you would have seen these people, you would never in a million years think this could happen at their house. Like, really, you wouldn't. Um that's that's the message that I want to get out is it's normal people doing this. It's yeah, okay, Steve Jobs, Prince Andrew, those are sensational and crazy, but it's also your neighbors, you know.

SPEAKER_00 59:58

Yes, exactly.

SPEAKER_01 1:00:01

Yeah. The other qu thing was um there are two things leading up that kind of freaked me out. That was one of them. And then I'll tell the other story. I um she was learning a lot about me. And um, one thing she became she was constantly I'm single, and she wanted me to get on a dating site. I was like, no, no, no, I'm not gonna do that. I'm not gonna do that. Gross, you know, been there, done that, and I have done that. But uh, I didn't want to. She was adamant, and so finally I told her, Well, okay, fine. If you you can again, I thought she was my best friend. I'm like, you make the website. I hate that. You can even like send me a few that you think are a good pick, and um, maybe I'll talk to them, okay. Like you can be involved. I'm I'm not, you know, if I do it, I'm not gonna do it alone. But, anyways, so she created a um dating website for me, and she had the password, very important, hence, he had the password, and I believe he literally um created a bad person to contact me as a a way to hopefully get me to to I don't the victim. And this part is where David Wilcock saved me, because in David Wilcock's wisdom teachings, he kind of gave out their rules that they they live by a different rules than we do, and one of their rules is they have to tell you that you're what they're gonna do in advance, and you somehow have to agree to it. So I was kind of reluctantly talking to this person on a dating site, and when I look now at the um, it was so staged because I'm from Texas and the state flower is a blue bonnet. I'm proud of my Texas roots. I also have a golden retriever. Well, this um profile that contacted me was a man sitting in a field of blue bonnets with a golden retriever, you know. Um, I think that could have been staged. But then I I, you know, just chatting. And if you're talking on a dating site, you know, what are your goals? What are you looking for? You know, blah, blah, blah. You we just had kind of regular back and forth conversation for maybe 10 emails. Like it didn't go very far, but we had gotten to get to know each other. Um, and then I got the scariest email I've ever gotten. I and I can't even really explain why it was so scary. I think it was my higher self knew, like I was alarmed by it. And so his style of communication was just normal, like, hey, you know, a few words here, a few words here. I got this really weird, like three-page letter rambling. And one of the first lines it said was read between the lines, and then it was just like mishmosh weird rambling, but I also in it I saw plans to kill me or torture me through listening to, and it was gonna be public, and there were six songs that were already selected for this. That's what I read into this email. I can't really explain it, and I still don't have the email, but just so you know, I got scared, and I didn't have at the time, I don't know if I associated it with him, or this is just some weird bad person that I've come across on dating sites that I don't really like, anyways. So I just closed it, but it shook me up, it rattled me. And um, so what was happening in the two years that I was being hunted, little things like that that I think were happening, but also um this man was active at the Catholic church in the heart of downtown, the town that I I live in, and there was a pizza place right next to it, and it happened to me my favorite restaurant. Um, you talked a little bit about my passion for clean food, their ingredients were really high quality. I uh at this time in my life, I had um I was infatuated with ingredients and using ingredients to cure my body to the point I literally was getting my wheat sourced from an organic farm that I knew, and I get my wheat berries and I'd literally mill them into my own flour and make my own bread because I didn't trust any ingredients. So I was obsessed with food, and so the fact that I liked this restaurant and it was my favorite. Again, they had gotten that information from me. And um my hobby was going to yoga, and so this restaurant was on a street with a yoga studio, and then the same restaurant opened up another, it was like a deli, and in the morning they had bagels. So a lot of times I'd come in after yoga and get a bagel. And what was really weird about this, or where I'm going with this story, was every time I walked into one of these two restaurants, I was offered a drink. And um I think it was again prepping for what was to come. They were they were trying to get me ready. But like the, and it wasn't um alcoholic drink. It could have been weird. If I walked in after yoga, she'd say, Oh, let's take our shot. And she'd pull out from her fridge. It wasn't to sell. Again, this is a small town, so small talk happens. And she would pull out, it was kind of like apple cider vinegar type thing. It was kind of like, oh, let's do it. And it was kind of weird because I don't really, I didn't really want to, but she would make a big deal out of it. And I'd kind of go along with it. And then every time I'd come in, she'd say, Oh, let's take our shot. This, let's do that. And it was just weird. And then the other thing that was weird, and again, I don't know if um this is true or not, but she would say, Oh, me too. I have a neurological problem myself. And I, and there were a lot of these, her trying really hard to bond with me. And then the other thing that was weird is they were always building up a third person. And um he worked at these restaurants. And again, them knowing my passion for food, I would say I was a foodie. They would say, Oh, did you know he was nominated to be a James Beard um award winner? Or he did you know this? And they'd always bring this person into it. And I just kind of say hi. I I knew who they were talking about. I would come and go. And then I um they also would this the same person, and this is the person eventually how I got caught. I got caught at his house. I don't believe he was the mastermind. I believe he was a minion, and um, there were other people higher than he was, but he was the one that caught me. And they would um, I kind of felt like I knew him. There was a familiarity because at one time we lived in um a big city, and he was the top chef at a very huge, you know, five-star restaurant that I used to take my clients to. I my office was right by it. And you know, we we kind of had that same, I didn't know him, but I had a familiarity with him. So the the situation with the granddaughter that totally freaked me out, it eliminated all of my social circle in this town revolved around them. I didn't have anybody else not connected with them. And then I got that dating. This happened at the same time, that weird email that just rattled me to my core. I can't explain it, but it just scared the shit out of me. I was just like, ugh. And I just needed to be around people. You know, all of these thoughts were in my head, and I was alone, and I was just, is this really happening? Oh my God, you know, holy cow. And I had texted that um James Beard and not nor James Beard nominee because he was single and I thought he was gay. I didn't know he was um he, I think he is gay. I didn't, we weren't texting for any reason, just we were texting. And then and at the time he had invited me over to his house. I think he said, I can't remember how it went. It was a while ago, but after this happened, I just wanted to get out of the house. And I don't drink very much, but I needed just normalcy, you know, I just needed to sit and look at a river, and I it was just a scary time. And so I went over to his house, and um, that was the first time I had ever hung out with him, other than seeing him in the town, you know, that I lived in. And I went there and me being a um super careful on my body, I showed up with food, and I had um I wanted to drink really badly, and I measured, I was gonna drink vodka and root beer. And I even I'm so careful, I even like poured the vodka into a mason jar and I measured two ounces and I had my root beer, and I was gonna do half a root beer with half with an ounce of vodka. Like that's was my plan. And I also came with smoked trout and I came with chocolate chip cookies and I came with crackers. Um and a little bit was just kind of the fun. Hey, you're a foodie, I'm a foodie, let's share food, you know. But oh, the whole point that I was going over there, we were just gonna hang out, and he said, I have to food prep. And I was like, that's great. I I will enjoy just watching you prep food. Like, that's about where my brain was right now. Like, that sounds like a great night. You prep food and I'll just sit there. It wasn't a night of heavy drinking at all. I've never been able to drink too much because of my illness. And if I do, it has, I I think probably more than most people, I have to plan the ramifications. Okay, everything has cause and effect in my world, especially having an alcoholic drink. I have to really do this safely. I have to have food in my stomach. I have to, you know, anyways, I'm I am very careful on what goes in my body because I have to be. And so I got to his house and I thought we were gonna sit outside on the patio. Ended up that he had like a screened in porch and he had a commercial oven in the screened in porch, and then we just barely went inside was his kitchen and a bar. And I sat at the bar and he was prepping chicken, like big, big trays of chicken and seasoning them and and doing stuff with chicken. And then he'd take the full tray and he'd go stick it in the commercial oven. And I just kind of sat there, was just watching him. It wasn't a big deal at first. And I um we talked about he'd been in a motorcycle wreck. I don't think I said his name. His name was Marty, and he'd been in a motorcycle accident. He had cancer, he was kind of like a tattooed kind of angry type, you know. Um, and I sat there. I didn't see anything odd in his house. I remember he had a newspaper clipping of Anthony Bourdain, and he acted like we were best buddies, and this was you know, so I'm so sad he died. I think he Anthony had recently passed around that time. And then this guy also had on his wall a framed article of himself, and we kind of talked about that and his career, and that's kind of cool that you got written up in the paper. We didn't talk about very much stuff. Um, at one point I did go to, I left my drink and I I went into the restroom and I came back, and I think he dumped out my root beer because I came back and I didn't have root beer. I didn't have my I again I was methodically planning, but then I I guess I didn't think too much of it. I just thought, well, I guess I was drinking that. I hadn't, anyways, I just got confused and I didn't plan. And he said, Oh, I've got some orange juice. Would you like some orange juice with your vodka? And I said, Yes, I'll have that. So pretty sure that was um tainted. And then the other thing with my ingredients, he said, Well, should I make us um an hors d'oeuvre? And I said, Yeah, that'll be fun, kind of like top chef, you know. And he made um, they were like round water crackers, and then he would take a piece of the fish, and then he added capers and then like squeezed cheese. So it was kind of like a big nacho, you know, you had to like almost eat it all at the same time. And he put the plate and we shared them from the plate. But I believe there was something obviously in that I brought the crackers and the fish, and he provided the capers and the cheese. But somewhere around that, those two incidents, I got drugged. And what um the first drug that I can remember feeling, I know it was ecstasy. Uh, I've never knowingly taken ecstasy, but I um that's a whole nother story. But what happened after that, it's like I know Allison and I know what I would have done in certain situations, and I'll kind of explain. I would have hightailed it out there before when I described the next phase of what happened. It's gonna kind of go deeper. But after I think I was already on ecstasy because I would see things that normal Allison would have bolted from that house, and I didn't bolt. I was very accepting of it, and I shouldn't have been accepting of it. I can remember at one point we left the kitchen area and we went into the living room area, and there was a wall of photos, like maybe 50, maybe more, like all eight by ten photos, kind of weird, just all lined up. And I looked at him and he said, That's my wall of dead people, they're all dead. And um, I looked up and there was Manson, Charles Manson was one of them, a framed picture of Charles Manson. Anybody, I would never go to anybody's house that had a framed picture of Charles Manson. I would have been like, see ya. But I can remember looking at that picture and being like, okay, I'm I was okay with it. And um, that's why I know I was already drugged at that point. And at that point, he started seeding me with um information that I think was part planned of this attack that he was telling me what a good friend of the police officer, you know, in town, their best buddies. And the weirdest comment of all, and again, not normal, but at the time, I was like, okay. Um he said, Well, if you ever feel my teeth in your mouth, it's because I have false teeth. Like weird, but I remember that. And um as it went on, I think at this point I was given two drugs. I had the ecstasy at first, and I was already given a roofie. And we I don't know enough about this, but um I was about to pass out coming up, so I don't know what they gave me. Uh, do roofies make you pass out? I don't really know. But I um obviously started feeling very weird. And in my history with my body, if I ever detect stress or something that's happening, I go into a form of meditation and um I sit and observe my body until I can kind of figure out what it is and what to do about it. And so I was in the house and was drugged, and I walked over and I sat on the couch and I went into meditation, and I sat and I was fully awake. I he thought I was out of it, but I was not. And the things I heard during that time, he was running around cleaning his house. So I think at that point I'd been caught and they knew it, and they sent out the signal to the higher-ups. We we've got an we've got somebody, and maybe how this works, I don't really know. The network went out and they all came to the house. But I was on the couch passing out, watching him. He ran and he took a shower, he was cleaning at one time.

SPEAKER_00 1:17:20

He didn't even ask you, he didn't even ask you if you were okay or anything, just let the dog fit in and and let it do its job and didn't even try to tend to you.

SPEAKER_01 1:17:32

It was like it was perfectly normal. Like he was just waiting for me to pass out, and he was running around and he'd come over and check on me. And I I don't know if I was very slow passing out, but I think he'd come and he'd test, is she out yet? Is she out yet? And at one point, he had a dog, and at one point I was laying on the couch, eyes closed, and he came over and he started petting me like this. My hair, and he started telling his dog, he said, We haven't had a girl here in a long time. And he said, Um, he complimented me and he said, I think I'm gonna keep her. Like he told the dog that, whatever that means, I don't really know. And um again, like he would go off and do something and then come back and and touch me or talk to me or something. But so far, nothing bad had happened other than I'm being drugged. But and then I remember him coming over and telling me, I think because I was still awake, he told me Candace and Marcelo are on their way over, and those were the people that owned the pizza place. That that was the woman that always gave me the shot when I came in, and that was who he worked for, and it was also the people that owned the restaurant next to the Catholic Church, and um so I did hear that they were on their way over. I never remember seeing them there. Um, I the last thing I can remember is this is a strange memory, but I kind of think in ritual it has meaning, but I don't know what it is. I can remember feeling my sock being taken off, just one sock. And um I don't trying to think that's my the end of my memory for the night. I don't remember anymore. And I've never ever accidentally just oops gone over to someone's house and oops fallen asleep. Like, not me. I it's never happened. I'm and to go to sleep, I am uh wash my face, put my pajamas on, like I have my whole deal. I gotta be in my bed, I got, you know, clean sheets. I don't just fall asleep. It doesn't happen. It did that night. But um, and then again, like if I ever slept someone somewhere where I didn't know someone, I would have woken up every hour on the hour. Like I don't sleep soundly. But I can remember after I was on the couch, the next thing I remember was waking up um eight to ten hours later. I don't know how to tell. I'll tell you the stories on how I know what happened during that time, but first I'll just finish the chronological events of the night and until I left. Um, there's not too much more to tell. I woke up and it felt very staged how I woke up because um, I'm a mom. You know how when teenagers fake, tired, oh good morning, you know, or if somebody fakes that sleepy voice, you can kind of tell.

unknown 1:20:52

Yes.

SPEAKER_01 1:20:53

Well, I think another what I think it was medically staged for me to wake up at that moment. I think I was maybe given something because it was all ready for me to wake up. He was ready for it. It wasn't an accident. I can remember waking up, and this is unusual, but I just heard so loudly in my head, I don't know if it was my voice or not. Get your purse, don't say anything, and get out, is what I heard. Not loudly, but that's what I heard in my voice. It was my first thought upon upon waking up. And I did say goodbye to him, but I didn't linger. I grabbed my purse and I went out. And this house shared a driveway with another house. The houses were kind of close together. And I walked out at about eight o'clock in the morning, and I think there was a lady on her screened in porch in the next door house waiting for me. And I walked out and I had to have just been so drugged and so out of it. And I couldn't turn my head. My head was completely frozen. I didn't have, I couldn't even do this at all. I think I had so much pain, they gave me tons of pain medicine. That would have been the fourth drug. So ecstasy, a roofie, something to wake me up, and um, tons of high-powered pain medicine. I couldn't even turn my head, grabbing my purse, and I just wanted out, and I walked out, and the lady approached me and said, I heard somebody crying last night. And this was her his neighbor. And I can remember thinking, lady, I can't deal with that right now. With whoever was crying, that's I didn't realize she was trying to tell me it was me. And um, I turned and I looked at her, and when we made eye contact, she kind of jolted back. She said, What do you? I can't remember what she asked me, but there was a very strong reaction. And what are you on? Are you okay? I had to have just looked awful, I can't imagine. And um I wanted to get away from her because I it it felt I just wanted to get out of the whole thing. And the other thing she told me was there were others here. So I heard someone crying. She pointed to the direction that she heard, and then she said there were others. So she was trying to tell me something. I wasn't in the state of mind to receive it. Then I got in my car, and it was a weird driveway again. I couldn't figure out how to get back because I didn't have one of those backup cameras, and I my neck was completely frozen. And I tried to erk, erk, like get I didn't even look back. I was just kind of blind trying to back up, and I ended up hitting this lady. She was still outside watching, and I ended up hitting her bird feeder, and she was screaming, like, what's wrong with you? And who was you, you know, can you do this? And I just again wanted to go. And um turns out I would love to talk to that lady now. Um, and also after I left, that lady and Marty, the perpetrator, I think he's like the minion perpetrator, got an argument and they called the police actually. And I haven't seen that police report. I want to get it again. I've been in freeze, so so there's still stuff I can do. And if you're a true crime fighter and you want to come in and help me investigate, you're welcome to do that. I call on any help we can get. But um, yeah, so that I'll I've been chatting, chat. And I'll do you have any questions or anything?

SPEAKER_00 1:24:52

I just want to comment and say for people listening, I alluded to this in the intro, but Allison did not grow up in a family that perpetuated abuse on her. She was not a ritual abuse, um K Ultra, satanic ritual abuse survivor as a child, like a lot of uh testimonies that we hear, and a lot of victims come forth and say that they were when outlining or trying to describe losing memory and then what happened. And so I think Allison's story is really important. And um I don't know if you're planning on telling us what you put together today or on another episode, but regardless, I think it's important conversation because we need to realize that these people, these networks, these systems, these cults, it's not just multi-generational people that they funnel through these rituals and that they find or abduct or lure in or groom or seek out. These can be regular people. And I've heard it from Allison's perspective as being somebody that met and was entangled and got entangled with a network. And I've also heard it from parents who ended up marrying a perpetrator, didn't realize it, and you know, lost their kids to um a system that protects predators and favors abusers. So the people that get abused or intertwined in these networks, they're not always people that are born into it. And I think that's a really important and lesser talked about aspect of the big picture. And it's why Allison's story is so important and why I want all of you guys to hear it because a lot of us didn't go through what some of these survivors talk about from birth, and we think we might not be susceptible to these things happening. And it's very important that we realize that all of us are, it doesn't matter if you are born into a cult network or not. These people are always on the lookout for people that they can use for different things. And Allison's story illustrates that. So I just wanted to comment on that in case people didn't read between the lines, quote unquote, like what that guy told you in my intro of what I said.

SPEAKER_01 1:27:02

Yeah, that's it's a great point because I I wasn't. I feel like I was hunted and caught and used targeted for this. And I kind of wonder the dynamics that go on. I th I what I believe happened during those missing hours. I think um at I've identified possibly five for sure that I know were there, and um possibly up to 10 to 12 people arrived. And I know that um I know I was raped, um strangled, tortured, raped every way you can to be raped, and actually um my upper body had the worst effects of it afterwards. Um And but the people that come, if you look at it, they're not all on the same level and they don't all have the same agenda. There might be somebody there in this cult that is gonna be forced to rape the victim so that they can have blackmail on that person. There could be the head perpetrator, you know, the the hazing guy from um the Ivy League school, you know. Obviously his role was probably to make the victim as miserable as possible. Um the person that caught me, the minion, the house I ended up being there. I kind of wonder, and this is just food for thought, I obviously have a lot of I wonder if this happened. But I he did say I'm gonna keep her, you know, and I know they wanted me to come back. They tried very hard to disguise what happened to me. And um, I think there was probably plans to have a second one or a third one or a fourth one. Um so I kind of wonder, okay, I think the Catholic guy was the guy that orchestrated it, but the minion guy caught me. Who was in charge? And was there a power struggle there? Um so I was trying to get out of the driveway. The lady, the neighbor was yelling at me, but also on my side too. That was weird. Um, and I'd love to talk to her because I think she was trying to tell me that. I was so out of it, I couldn't move my neck. I'd been given, I know, a ton of painkillers. And I was also given laxatives. Um, I could tell. Um, I got in the car, I shouldn't have been driving. I wonder how many victims actually end up with a DUI. Like on top, you know, they release the people, and then again they could, anyways, I wonder about that. Like, how many people go from bad to another bad? You know what I mean?

unknown 1:30:05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 1:30:06

It's a horrible situation, horrible. But I got in the car and I um had a very clear thought to go to the police and have a rape test done. Like many victims, I was well, I think that's another huge topic that we talk about because this sounds horrible to say, but it's true. It's almost legal to rape people, um, especially if alcohol is involved. And I had two very small ounces of alcohol, which again, you're not authorizing anything, nobody deserves it. But um in law enforcement, it's almost uh unprosecutable if that happens, which is just so bad. How many ways can we victimize our victims? But I uh was driving home, I did have the thought to go to the police. I didn't do it. I came home. I um remember brushing my teeth, and I had never experienced a gag. I couldn't even brush my teeth without gagging. Um I instantly needed that shower to clean it off. Like it just uh I got home almost like I was not in my body, you know. Um I went to sleep afterwards. It was broad daylight, but I curled up in the fetal position and I slept for two or three hours, I can't remember how much, and woke up and packed my bags and got in the car, and I did two nights at an Airbnb, and then I located a temporary lodging situation where I went for about two months, and I don't even think I got out of bed for two months. Um it's anyways, there's so much more to the story, and I would love to tell you the rest of it because I want to help others. Um, but uh I think this is a good stopping point.

SPEAKER_00 1:32:16

RDU too, and I think we can really go into how your past helped you navigate the situation that happened to you because, like I outlined in the intro, you know, you had a lot of debilitating issues in your past that you learned to live with and manage and overcome in a lot of ways so you could live a normal life despite what that could have become for you. And I feel like that just activated once you went through this trauma, you started doing the same protocols that you were trained to as a child with figuring out how to get through and survive what just happened to you, having no memories and just knowing that you're experiencing these symptoms and everything's super, super freaking weird and horrifying. And you went through something that no person should ever go through. And I'd love to have you on to go through that process with you and what you did and how those protocols helped you through this.

SPEAKER_01 1:33:11

I'd love to share them, and I think that's so important, and that is why I'm speaking out because I feel like as a victim, I have more insight than most victims because I I've had I have detective skills that I've developed over a lifetime, and I have such a cause and effect that I live my life with. You know, a sunny day is trouble, like flashing lights. Like I kind of walk through, I navigate landmines every single day, and it has given me the discernment skills I needed to uncover what happened to me. And I since I have that, I want to warn others to I was somewhat warned. Um but if you know what exists, it gives you a little bit of power to fight against it, you know. If if it could happen to me, it could happen to anybody. Um and we're all at risk and we all have to shine a light on this darkness to make it go away.

SPEAKER_00 1:34:11

And speaking of risk, this is your first time speaking out, and you're putting yourself purposely in a position of potentially being at risk because this is important for you to get out, and you know it can help people, and because there's people that are are going through this and dealing with it, and nobody's saying anything. Um, you know, it's not being held accountable. These people are still walking free, you know. But one of the things that you had mentioned earlier, you're still living in the same town that this took place. These people are still around you. And so I just want to, you know, I feel bad for these people. They picked the wrong girl to mess with, you know. And um, I wanted to see if you had anything that you wanted to say on that also, just because you know you're still in the thick of it.

SPEAKER_01 1:34:55

Yeah, they didn't get away with the crime. I know what they did to me. Um, and I am still scared of retribution. I'm scared of speaking out for me and my children. Um, I know this man that targeted me for two years walked into my son's place of business, and um, that terrifies me. That was years ago. So he's he is active. I I don't I um do not authorize or any harm on me or my family. And um I ask for prayers of protection. And if you could buy me a coffee or something, I need to get out of this town. Um, I need to exit stage left. I'm not safe here.

SPEAKER_00 1:35:43

And as Allison said earlier, we will have a link in the show notes that you guys can go to and you guys can donate. And I really encourage you guys to, you know, we talked about this earlier, but so many ways that that we can make an impact are very small. Many times they're very affordable and or they're free. And a lot of you ask what you can do to help, like I said earlier, also. And it doesn't take a lot. If you guys have five extra dollars to donate, please donate it to a survivor. You know, that's a really great way that you guys can help. And it might seem like just five dollars to you, but to somebody else that can go a really, really long way in their time of need. And we need whistleblowers and survivors to continue blowing the whistle. And with what they're walking away from to disclose, you know, we need to help. If we if we're gonna be demanding that they give us names and more information, then we need to step up and help resource them and protect them so they can continue to do it. We can't just ask them without reciprocation, it's not fair. Yeah, it's it's not possible, you know. And we see that with some of the the whistleblowers that you outlined at the beginning who are no longer here who didn't have the protection, although they're not a witness protection.

SPEAKER_01 1:36:49

There's yeah, like if you actually call, um, I think it was oh, I have so many more stories to tell. I'm like, oh, I forgot this, I forgot this. There's another really good story on that topic. But I had I gave a friend a um, this is gonna be part two. So, audience, we're gonna come back, we're gonna keep talking. There's a I have so much to say, but one smart thing I did after this was I gave someone a file with the names, and um uh that person was uh targeted. And um I think that file kept me alive, honestly. This this I'll I guess I'll just real quickly since I already started the story, um I'll try to give it maybe we can go in deeper later. But I was scared for my life afterwards. And um I had a good friend, she worked in a very um high-powered law firm. She was a very um smart woman, very smart. And she helped me early on. She was one of the first people I could talk to, and she believed my story and she understood the danger and she understood what happened. And um she was a remarkable person to help me in my time of need. But I gave her the file, I gave her names and I gave her things that I'm not even giving you. Um and her computer was hacked, and it was a corporate computer, and she was at work live when it happened, and um she could see somebody had was on her computer, it was moving, and live time, she could take her laptop to the IT department and um the IT department said this is so sophisticated we can't even identify the hacker. And um so uh there's some bad guys out there, like they don't like you to go against them. And you know, this is for all of us. We we need help. And I don't uh, you know, I'm not suicidal, I'm not crazy.

SPEAKER_00 1:39:05

Nobody would think that you're crazy listening to you. Just like it's really hard to say that about anybody else that these people like to label crazy or schizophrenic. All it takes is listening to somebody for 15 seconds to see that they're not. So their arguments get really, really, you know, kind of corny after a while, even though if people don't pay attention, they're gonna end up leaving it. But it's important for survivors to make those claims and to have that authorization over themselves to commit to saying statements such as I'm not suicidal and things like that, because it makes it a lot harder for the enemy to actually do something if you are putting that out there. So I'm really proud of you, Allison, and really appreciate you coming on today. And for people who are listening who might want to follow you on social media or connect with you, are you on social media and can people follow you there too?

SPEAKER_01 1:39:49

I um I love X um Twitter. I I don't do any other social media at the time. I have accounts, but uh that's my favorite place to hang out on social media. I love the information, I love the disclosure, I love um all sorts of things about it. It's a great resource for everybody. So I like that platform. And I it will have a platform, um, buy me a coffee, and you can comment. And uh, I think you can I'll post an email address, but I think the buy me a coffee has an email address, and Twitter has an email address. And I'm on Twitter every day, so you should be able to get me.

SPEAKER_00 1:40:26

And on Twitter, it's at Adams Alice A-L-L-I-S 94140. And I will have that in the show notes also.

SPEAKER_01 1:40:36

Yeah, I had the best Twitter name, but remember the purge that happened and I my account went down and I went, I didn't even voice, but I was Allison 1776. I loved that, and that is my buy my coffee. I did get Allison 1776 again. I like that one.

SPEAKER_00 1:40:54

I love it. Yeah, these purges. I mean, it it's terrible how they've censored so many people over the years. And yeah, I know.

SPEAKER_01 1:41:01

I lost, and I never even posted, I was just a lanker, you know. I just like whank like I really lost my account and they still haven't given it back. Oh my god. I think I liked all the wrong people or the right people, however you look into it. I guess I should be complimented. But on the same day they deleted Trump, I was deleted as well.

SPEAKER_00 1:41:20

Oh my goodness. Wow. Well, I'm glad that you didn't give up and you created another account. And I encourage people to go follow you there. You are very active and easy to reach there. So if people also want to reach out and DM you or um send you a message or encourage you, that's another nice way you guys can support survivors. You guys can do that also on her ex page and DM her and reach out and support her content that she puts out. Um, you are so brave for doing this. I'm so proud of you. And this is like it's such a badass thing to be able to speak out. Not everybody's in a place to do it, and that doesn't make you less badass if you're not able to. Exactly. I'm just saying when you do get to a point where you can, it's a really big milestone in a survivor's journey. And I'm really grateful and proud of you for crossing that milestone today.

SPEAKER_01 1:42:07

Well, you're sweet. Thank you, and thank you for what you do. Oh my God, you're you champion, you give so many people voices. And I've watched you even just in the comments, if somebody says something bad about you, go after, oh, whoa, whoa, no, you did it. And I just love your fierceness and thank you so much. And um, I hate that we have to be brave, but damn it, it happened, and we're gonna speak up.

SPEAKER_00 1:42:30

We have to, we gotta do it again.

SPEAKER_01 1:42:32

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:42:33

And when we realize that these people that we're up against literally have to drug people and pick out children or people that they look at as vulnerable, like these are all cowards doing this crap.

SPEAKER_01 1:42:43

So like they're such cowards and they they don't do it, they hide behind this and they hide behind this, and they act like they're pillars of the society, and they're such yeah, bad people.

SPEAKER_00 1:42:55

They're cowards, and once we realize that, we realize it doesn't take you know a whole lot to be brave against them. We just need more of us to do it because they're very organized, as we just heard today. And some of us aren't, you know, they have us focused on fighting over every little thing instead of coming together against them. So hopefully we can join hands and support. And, you know, if you guys have ideas on how we can champion Alice Allison's idea and mission about giving more support and protection to survivors, whistleblowers, you know, how we can come together and do that. Please reach out to her and offer to help. That's another great way you guys can support, or leave some feedback in the comments below this video. Um, we'd love to read your guys' ideas and even incorporate them into the next episode as sort of a continuation of this conversation today on that topic, also. Um, and Allison, thank you. Is there any final words that you want to say before we close up?

SPEAKER_01 1:43:45

No, I think I think uh this is good. We'll go to part two and thanks again. And thanks everybody for listening. If you've got this far, congratulate yourself, pat yourself on the back. This is a horrendous topic, and you made the first step today. So thank you for listening.

SPEAKER_00 1:44:01

And with that note, you guys, thank you so much for listening. God bless you all, and we will see you next time.
