S. 8 Episode 25: The Tanya Kach Story

*This was recorded a few weeks ago and delayed release so if we talk about anything in a timely manner that doesn't make sense- that's why*

Tanya Kach was groomed by a security guard at her middle school when she was only 14. She was held captive for 10 years, 2 miles from her father's home. In this episode, Ashley discusses what Tanya went through during the 10 years she was held captive, her escape, and the aftermath. She discusses where everyone involved in the story is now.

If you or someone you know has been a victim of sexual abuse, text "STRENGTH" to the Crisis Text Line at 741-741 to be connected to a certified crisis counselor.
