The Betrayal and more on Spencer Herron

Spencer Herron is the subject of the hit podcast The Betrayal, hosted by Jenifer Faison & Andrea Gunning. I needed more information, just like my Sympathy Pains post. More on Spencer Herron and his Youtune channel! More on Jenifer Faison. More on the town of Kell.

Did I learn something? Just a little more.

I'll start to preface it that podcast critic, Miranda Sawyer (The Guardian) said it was a "bit odd" that Jenifer Faison, a victim herself of these gross events, was interviewing other victims including the high school one. I found it odd as well, but, that is what made it such a compelling listen for me. It was different from the rest.

Anyway, I needed to look more at Spencer and this craziness. I went to local newspapers for some real-time reporting. In it, they mention the first-time offender status. However, in the podcast, they mention that was rescinded after another county put the sex-offender status back on.

Finally, I found his Youtube channel! Do you remember from an early episode there was talk about all the school clubs? Some real some fake. One of them was a drone club. Well, here was a post from a few years ago of drone footage from Spencer's channel!

Betrayal is a great podcast and worth the long-form reporting. There's no victim shaming and just sharing of knowledge on how recovery and understanding are very important to healing. Props to Jenifer.

Lastly, Jenifer comes from a television background, so naturally, Glass Productions partnered with Amazon to create the televised version. More info on that is below:

Found this last-minute user review from another website. Note, I did not confirm its authenticity, but it's just interesting to note since Jenifer has interviewed a lot of victims.
