Episode 137: Shasta Groene and Joseph Edward Duncan a Survivor's Tale Part One

Episode 137: Shasta Groene and Joseph Edward Duncan a Survivor's Tale Part One

When Shasta Groene was eight years old, she survived 47 days in the forest with the serial killer and apex child predator who’d killed her family and abducted her: Joseph Edward Duncan.

Her tale of survival in the hands of this brutal monster is beyond harrowing and disturbing, but it is also a tale of resilience, hope, and, eventually, healing.

Listener discretion is strongly advised.
