306: The Sea Orphan: Tere Jo Duperrault

306: The Sea Orphan: Tere Jo Duperrault

On Monday, November 13th, 1961, a crewman aboard an oil tanker spotted something in the water. It was a man in a dinghy, waving frantically to get their attention. They rescued the man, and he told a harrowing story of how he found himself in the small vessel adrift at sea. While some believed him, others had serious doubts about his story, and another rescue days later cast further doubts on his tale. The second rescue was of 11 year old Tere Jo Duperrault, and she told a much different version of the events that left her adrift at sea.
