Across the globe, levels of child marriage are highest in West and Central Africa, where 1 in 3 young women were married before age 18. But what if I told you this issue is also lurking in our own back yard.... Nearly 300,000 minors, under age 18, were legally married in the U.S. between 2000 and 2018, this study found. A few were as young as 10, though nearly all were age 16 or 17. Most were girls wed to adult men an average of four years older. Today we are going down the rabbit hole of the complex issue of child marriages in the United States.

We've been talking about MLM Villian Jessie Lee Ward and her medical misinformation recently and I can't help by be reminded of Dr. Linda Hazzard who scammed, beat, starved and even killed many of her patients and get this... wasn't even a real doctor. Medical misinformation is not only obnoxious and dangerous, but it's all around us today thanks to social media and the interwebs.Follow on IG Instagram.com/downarabbitholepodcastEmail: downarabbitholepodcast@gmail.comSources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linda_Hazzard

In September 1978 , 15 year old Mary Vincent was hitchhiking in Modesto, California. A man driving a blue van pulled up offering her a ride. She thought he was old feeble and harmless, he looked like he could be someones grandpa. But this man was not harmless, this man was Lawrence Singleton, and he was a monster.

By looking at Jennifer Harts facebook posts all about free hugs and how much she loved her 6 adopted children, you'd think their family life was filled with kindness and affection. The rest of the world certainly thought so, that is until March of 2018 when she drove her wife and children off of a 100 foot cliff, bringing their lives to an end.

Last episode we discussed Jehovah's Witnesses, where it started, what they believe and the rules of the 'religion'. For todays I had the pleasure of interviewing an ex-Jehovahs Witness who spent more than half of her life in the cult.
Jehovah's Witnesses have most likely knocked at you door. Are they just 'sharing the good news' or are they recruiting you into their doomsday cult? Todays episode is an overview of Jehovah's Witness, where it started, what they believe and their strange rules. Stay tuned for Part Two!
